We got to preview the Freemie hands-free pumping system at our lactation department. Myself and another lactation consultant tried it and thought it was a great idea but needed some refining. My friend also tried it and did not have any issues with it. But two out of three of us had red marks and soreness after pumping with this.
We are keeping in touch with our sales rep about this to see when new versions of this come out hopefully this next year. If the ridge between the flange and the tunnel is smoothed out, we will probably start carrying this product because moms really do need an option like this to make things easier at work.
I know they have a website if anyone wants to take a look.
Are there any hands free pumping Systems that you fellow lacked netters would recommend?
