Posted - Aug 26 2007 : 8:49:55 PM I was pumping tonight and my breast pump broke!! I am really worried! I heard a thunk and the motor suddenly sounded different. I quickly realized that the suction mechanism is broken!!! EEEK! I am already full and Nora is glutted and asleep. I think I am going to have to go to the hospital and get another set for a rental pump that I still have- Good thing I forgot to return it!! I am so disappointed! I love the one that just broke. I hope WIC will repair it since it is their pump that they gave me!!

Posted - Aug 27 2007 : 10:33:16 AM Man mine is almost a year old and still going strong. (I had a preemie too and have to pump)
I had a medela, but use Ameda sheilds etc.
I hope they will fix yours! |

BTW did you get my reminder?

Posted - Aug 26 2007 : 10:19:35 PM Oh I just ran to the hospital and got the set that hooks up to the Medela pump. Phew! I feel much better now. I am medium chested and just pumped out 7 ounces. Nora will probably wake up in the middle of the night since she went to bed at 5:30, woke up to eat at 7:30 and was into her crib around 7:50. But at least until then I am not in pain.
The hospital just gave me the set. They didn't ask my name or anything. Yay Gritman! The nurses are great.

Posted - Aug 26 2007 : 9:38:40 PM If you dont need the milk.... get in the shower and hand express it. I have had a hospital medela... a hand pump medela and a hand pump avent.
I wore out the medela... and the avent took a little bit to get the right touch, but that one would pump more milk quicker than any other I have had.
When you have a micro preemie, you have to pump.
