Hi all!

Liz Spannraft wrote wanting to know why even moms who have been well taught
the benefits and techniques of double pumping will opt to single pump instead.
The moms say double pumping is too hard. As a mom and LLLL who pumped for 4
months in 1987 for a premie, I found double pumping too hard as well. Double
pumping tied up both my hands. I couldn't answer the phone, have a sip of
water, turn the pages of a book, or give my other kids hugs. The apparatus was
too awkward to use as well, so I went back to single pumping. It just worked
better for me as maybe it does for these moms. JMHO
