I got a one handed manual one when bby was like 2weeks old.. They give u an electric one at 6weeks... Its free and a Medela Brand... Their over $40.00 at BBRus... Its worth it... Oh and Brand New yours to keep
The manual one you get to keep it'll be yours! But the electric one you have to take back every appt and you have to give it back when you stop breastfeeding. And in order for them to let you borrow the electric one you have to set up as if you're only breastfeeding, so they don't give you formula! Which sucks, but the electric pump works super good! And the manual pump would take for ever!
I live in SD & just last wk the wic girl told me that if I only breast feed I will get a new electrical on to keep forever once I go back to work. She said they want to encourage all moms to breastfeed so that's an insentive to continue doing it
@mlk619 yeah I found out you have to b work full time and breastfeed only to get it no formula but I wonder what if ur milk runs out will they make u take it back ?
Yea u just have to talk to the leche consultent they give it to u about a month ahead.. So u can start building ur suply just expess ur concerns.. They should work with u
@dmaciel: I asked about that and they told me as long as u pump & continue to breastfeed when u r home ur milk will not run out. U also have to make sure u eat healthy to keep your supply up.
