Hi all,

I'm being asked to give my blessing for the DME provider attached to our
hospital to carry the Freemie breast pump.  I've asked for feedback on that
pump here on Lactnet before and response was not overly enthusiastic.  Does
anyone have any fantastic news about this pump?  My concern is that the
headline on the website says "Pump While you Play,"  and there is a picture
of a mom lying down and playing with her baby (assumed to be pumping at the
same time) and yet the instructions say to sit up straight and not recline
or lay down while using the pump or it may spill. Seems like misleading
advertising and a red flag to me.  I'm just afraid that if we make this
available, women will choose this pump over more appropriate types for a
baby in the NICU, etc. Not that they couldn't find it somewhere else, but I
want to provide good and appropriate products.

Any other feedback?

Thanks!
