Patricia, I like your idea about not saying "pump" when we mean "express".
I've usually been saying "pump" because I think it's a word that most women
understand, whereas "express" isn't always as immediately clear. But it's
easy enough to make clear, and I'm going to make a big effort to try it!

Because language IS important!
