Let me say it again—you need a hand pump! You can often get one for free at the hospital by asking for a pumping set when you deliver your baby. If not, it’s the best $30 you’ll ever spend. The suction on these is amazing, and having a hand pump is essential for emergencies, like a power outage, so you can still provide milk for your little one. I especially loved using mine at night—it made my pumping sessions so much faster while still yielding the same amount of milk! A total game-changer. We keep one in the house and in the car AND in the diaper bag! 💛 pumpingmom breastfeeding exclusivelypumping
