Breast Pump

[jessevaldez]

I'm thinking which is better, manual or electric breast pump? Pag manual kasi parang nakakapagod, yung electric naman natatakot ako. Hahaha. I'm torn.

Hmmm...depende siguro sa lifestyle mo sis. Kung busy ka or lagi ka nagmamadali, mas okay sayo ang electric. Don't worry, safe naman siya gamitin. hehe. Pag manual naman okay rin naman siya pero medyo matagal nga lang sa pag pump. I guess the Pigeon brand has two options, electric an manual, you can check na lang sa mga baby stores like sa SM Department store tapos ask mo Sales Ladies for their recommendation.

Thanks, Sis adia_go for the reply. Sige will check the Pigeon brand that you mentioned. Hopefully mura lang rin. hehe.

^ mahal ang pigeon sis for a breastpump. single electric costs 10k. ang 10k mo ay hospital grade pump na ni spectra. Hindi rin ganun karami ang reviews with it.

Go for spectra nalang as this is used talaga by breastfeeding moms or medela. itong 2 brands na to ang pinaka popular here sa breastpumps. tried and tested na sila. spectra has converter to manual pump.

Sis aiah... Para ngang mahal yun... Actually my sis bought pigeon breastpump manual lang and it's 3599.75...di naman nya nagamit.. And she gave it to me... Buti nalang kasi..  Namamahalan din ako.. Eh yung farlin is 700 lang and found good reviews about it... Hopefully marami akong bm for my lo.. Edd is early sept pa naman...

[ellabear]

okay lang kaya bumili ng second hand breast pumps? Thanks!

[Scubadoobidoo]

I think ok naman to buy secondhand pumps as long as you sanitize it ng ma ayos. Lets face it breast pumps are expensive considering you will only use them for a few months. I think if you are buying from a friend ok lang.

[miss understood]

I want to sell my electric breastpump (closed system, so no need to sterilize the tubes). Spectra M1. PM me for details.

[_AiaH_]

@ellabear yes basta closed system okay lang naman. or kahit ano ok lang, just make sure na okay pa ang motor ng pump. better din if you will purchase your own set of breastkits for the pump for hygienic purposes.

[ellabear]

oh okay. by the way what is closed system? Sorry first time mom here and yung mga cousins ko na nagkababy or yung sa bunso namen sa mom ko hindi naman sila gumamit ng breast pump kaya wala ako idea. Feeling ko kasi kakailanganin ko yung breast pump kasi lumaki man boobs ko konti lang yung nilaki and first time mom ako kaya feeling ko mahihirapan ako magproduce ng breast milk

[_AiaH_]

^ join breastfeeding pinays group sa fb. they are around 40k members na yata and very informative ang group na yun. ang dami ng milk natin is not dependent sa size or whether we are first time moms or what. it is dependent on our will and how often we latch our babies.

it works following the demand and supply rule. if there is a demand (meaning baby often latches or feeds on the breast as in every demand), the breast will up it's supply and will continue supplying milk.

kailangan lang naman lagi sya empty e. kaya papadedehin lang ng papadedehin si baby. if nabawasan frequency or hindi na masyado dumedede si baby like kapag nagpaformula ka, our bodies will produce less milk thinking na wala naman dumedede at konti lang kailangan ko iproduce. thus resulting to lower milk supply and si mother iisipin konti lang milk ko, edi ifformula lalo at hindi masyado magffeed kay mother, aggravating the situation lang. if low ang milk, keep feeding. hindi naman bababa yan basta may dumedede e.

[ellabear]

@aiah yes ill join the group. thank you so much para sa information regarding sa breast feeding mas naintindihan ko

Ah talaga? matibay ba ang spectra? Nagtanong din ako sa ibang office mates ko okay naman daw ang Pigeon. Guess I have to check for myself. Paano ba malalaman yun. hahaha. Malamang bawal i-test sa mall. hehe.

[tulipninja]

@jessevaldez sis, check mo yung website ng babymama.ph, they have a comparison ng mga breastpumps, depending kung ano kailangan mo. may mga portable kasi, may hospital grade, etc. so i suggest ikaw pumili. may specs din sila na isinama, pwede mong pag-aralan.

re: spectra breastpumps, may college orgmate ako na yun ang ginamit, maganda naman review na.

[annamarie88]

binilhan ako ni MIL ng Avent manual pump, hindi ko pa nagagalaw.. Sana makapagpump ako matino, para sa morning cup or bottle si baby, direct pag gabi.. Sakit sa boobie kasi (kahit tama latch)

[LGV]

I wasnt sure if pwede but since may nakita akong isang nagpost about her pump na for sale gagaya na din ako. Padelete nalang admin if bawal.

Im planning to sell my avent double electric breast pump that was only used for less than 2 mos. Nakatambak lang ngayon sa house kasi, buy price was 20999 willing to sell it kahit half the price. Complete set pa to and may kasama pang bag mismo. Kindly PM me if interested. Thank you so much!!

Sakit talaga maglatch pero your nipples will eventually get used to it.  Medela house instruct moms not to overuse the pumps, if kasama daw ang baby, better pa rin to latch.
