Best wearable Breast Pump?

Can I have some recommendations for wearable breast pumps? I’m 3 days PP and wasn’t going to breastfeed but I’ve been really enjoying it so need to invest in a pump! Photo of my squish for attention 🥰

You don’t need to worry about pumping for the first 6 weeks or so until supply is established x

@Clarice I’m just preparing for the future, would like to get some recommendations so I can do some research into them 🥰 x

I’ve been recommended MomCozy and Spectra brands 🍼

I’ve been recommended the Medela wearable as the best on the market, but haven’t tried one myself!

I have Medela, a lot of people I know love Momcosy. You might also want to invest in milk collection shells? They go over your breast while your baby feeds on the other to collect passive let down. There are also silicone pumps like the haakaa that collect let down through light suction but some women say it can cause an over supply (unlike shells, which literally just sit there).

@Rhiannon I actually have a Hakka and shell which I’m currently using! I think I might just keep using those for now then if I struggle then can look into a breast pump Thanks everyone!

Just beware the wearables don’t empty you as well as a stronger wired pump and nothing empties you as well as your baby. Lots of people pump and think they’re not making enough but not everyone is able to pump lots of milk - it doesn’t mean you don’t have the milk to feed baby. 4 months in EBF and honestly pumping is more hassle than it’s worth as if someone gives baby a bottle say during the night you’ll need to pump at that time anyway to maintain your supply especially in the early days. You’ve then got tones of washing/ serialising to do too. Much quicker to just latch baby imo. If pumping is something you’re really keen to do though my best bit of advice is ensure the flange size is correct for you to maximise output. Most pumps come with generic flanges which are unlikely to be the correct fit for you so you’ll need to measure yourself and order the correct size separately. Best of luck! x

I’ve got the medela freestyle and love it! Had a mam one before which was handy as it went straight into a bottle but was bulky compared to the medela one!

I have the one from the PaNt store on amazon, only £20-25. Its large and not so wearable, but that's actually a good thing. It's not comfortable to do much while pumping (with a smaller one I was cooking etc...) a larger one you have to hold means that you have to sit down and drink water. Pumping is not to be multi tasked with anything but tv/entertainment.

At this stage I used a Hakka and put it on the boob I wasn’t feeding on and managed to get a really good supply of milk this way

I’ve been using the momcozy wearable pump for about 3 months now and I like it :)

@Jordan hi. I’ve bought one of these. Once it’s suctioned on does it “free flow” out or do you need to squeeze / pump? Thank you

@Jordan sorry I meant @Claurice !!

For a wearable pump I use the Pipetta, it’s reasonably priced and does the job. It comes with different size flanges too; like others have said though I’ve found wearable pumps don’t measure up to plug in ones however they definitely have a place for convenience of being hands free and mobile

Elvie on the higher end but I’ve also heard great things about momcozy and it’s more affordable!

I use the momcozy s9 pro and it’s been absolutely brilliant!!

I love my spectra pumps. I have both the S1 and wearable pump

I don't like the wearable pumps as much. They are a pain to keep charged and assemble. They don't seem to give me as much milk. For a pump I love the Motif Luna. I can get a good amount of milk in just 8 minutes and more in 15-20. It's more time effective in my opinion. I used the Willow Go for a wearable.

I like my momcozy

Thanks for your help everyone ☺️
