I tell moms that it is important to learn hand exp. They'll always have
their hands with them, but what are they going to do if they forget the
pump? :-) As Helen says hand exp is another way to empower the woman.
She can depend on herself, not technology. Another thought about pumps.
They allow a mom not to "touch" herself. Part of the sexualization of
breasts and taboos in US culture. Sincerely, Pat in SNJ
