Can you get her an electric motor (classic, lactina, or PNP)?  I don't have
a lot of experience with the peddle pump (only saw it once), but it seems
less convenient than a motor.

How many hours a week does this mom work?  Perhaps you can argue the point
that mom needs the nights to nurse baby to build and maintain a good milk
supply.  Also, has dad thought about spending time with his baby while mom
is at work?
