How To Choose A Breast Pump

The milk production in the breasts, much like so manyother things, work on the shear principal of supplyand demand. The more breast milk your baby consumes,the more your body will need to make.

Breast pumps are generally used to insure continuedproduction of breast milk when you cannot feed yourbaby - whether you are back to work, traveling, takingmedication, or just out of town.

Basic types of pumpsBreast pumps can either be battery operated, handoperated, semi automatic electric, or even self cyclingelectric.

Hand pumpsManual hand pumps are designed to use the strengthof your hand or arm muscles for pumping one breast ata time. You can also get pumps that will use the legand foot muscles for pumping both breasts at one time. Mothers that with carpal tunnel syndrome maywant to consider using a pump designed for the armor leg muscles or even an automatic model.

Battery operated pumpsPumps with battery operation are the best for womenwho have an established supply of milk and want topump once or even twice a day. These pumps use batteries to create suction, minimizing any type ofmuscle fatigue. Most battery type pumps are designedfor pumping one breast at a time and are recommendedfor occasional usage.

Electric pumpsEven though electric pumps are more efficient thanhand or even battery operated pumps, they also tendto be more expensive. You can however, rent them ifyou need to. Electric pumps can normally plugdirectly into an outlet and are designed for pumpingboth breasts at a time and even frequent use.
