Hi,
I'm hoping to tap into the collective wealth of all of your day-to-day
experiences!

In the June 2001 issue of Pediatrics, there was a study published
(Fewtrell et al.) in which 145 mothers of premies compared the Avent
Isis hand pump with an Ameda Egnell rental pump (with a double pumping
kit).  The mothers pumped on average of 3-4 times per day and the
mothers expressed comparable amounts of milk with the Avent Isis as they
did with the hospital-grade automatic double pump (~200 ml per day).

What are your thoughts on this and have you had experience with mothers
using an Avent Isis who are pumping only or attempting to establish a
milk supply with one?

Any feedback on this would be greatly appreciated!!
