"Anyone know anything about this "new" pump. I have a local pedi that is
considering purchasing this pump because it is "cheap" and he feels it
may help keep moms that are not buying a pump because of price
breastfeeding. Very bad sentence but I think you know what I mean."
My comment is not regarding this pump, but the issue that women will stop
breastfeeding because of the cost of a pump and think nothing of
purchasing formula which costs oodles more than a pump. A good manual
pump can be purchased for approx. US$40. That's about 1/2 a week of
formula! Are we not remiss in pointing this out?
