Hi ladies,
I have to order a breastpump pretty soon and I am confused on which one to order. The options are below - the problem is I will be returning to work after 3 months so I either need something portable or I need to purchase an extra pump:
Madela Pump in style starter set - DOES NOT come with tote bag - Free with insurance.
Madela Pump in style with tote & cooler - $120 upgrade charge - but I am not sure how portable this one would be even if it comes with the tote, along with my purse and lunch on a daily basis (I live in NYC and commute by train)
Madela Freestyle - $200 upgrade charge - very portable but I read the suction of the freestyle is not as good as pump in style.
Does it make sense to get the freestyle so I can use it both at home and at work --- but what do you ladies feel about the suction on this one?
Or should I get the free starter set, and just buy an extra one to keep at work? I'm not sure if it's worth the upgrade to get the tote and cooler bag for $120 if I can't easily transport it on a daily basis.
What would you do? Thanks in advance!!
