Anyone use wearable as their main breast pump?

I’m mainly on formula trying to pump more. I know a plug in is recommended but wondering if anyone use a wearable as their main pump. If so which one. Thanks!!

I only use my wearable

@Samantha thanks. Which one and how many times do you pump? Are you exclusively pumping? Or combo? Good output?

I found the wearable didn’t pump nearly as much milk as the electric one (I now use double electric Medela one exclusively)

I only did, tried a plug in and didn't see much difference tbh. It was a pipetta in-bra one

@Sabrina how many times a day were you pumping? Were you getting enough?

I had a month of exclusively pumping (was on antibiotics so had to pump and dump 😭) as well as lots of pumping at other times, and definitely got enough. I did invest in some different size flanges to ensure a perfect fit. Although I have a fairly fast letdown so that may impact it? Not sure

I first bought the medela swing double and found it good however it really affected my mood as I felt I was constantly attached to the unit, had to hold it or just sit there couldn't do much so I bought wearable pump to give me some freedom. I first got the pipetta and then momcosy m5. I couldn't really tell the difference, I never had a huge supply anyway x

Yeah I used wearable as only pump. I got MomMed one and was great

I use wearable only - Elvie pump. Find it’s nice to be able to get on and do stuff and not have to sit around.
