Avent Electric Breast Pump

I would recommed this to anybody who is thinking about breast feeding their child. The instructions that are supplie with this product are brilliant and easy to understand. It was very interesting to use for the first time and seemed very daunting but it worked out to be so simple. I paid £50 from Boots for mine which was 2 years ago now it is so much easier than the hand pumps that can put alot of strain on the fingers to keep havinig to pump it, this is the lazy way out and is it worth the money all you have to do is sit back and relax watching tv or reading a book which can take a bit of practice due to having to hold the pump still. The pump ...  Read the complete review

I have breast fed my first daughter until 14mths,now 2.5 and I am breastfeeding the 2nd lucy born in june.I used the Avent pump,and found it very good.

When my first son was born he was in intensive care for 2 weeks and as I was breastfeeding the neo-natal had to freeze my milk. They had 2 breast pumps in the room and they were electric. They had several suction speeds and were EXCELLENT!. When I had my second son I thought I would by one so that I could go out for the odd night!. I chose the Advent pump because I like Advent products. Very slow and labourious. However, friends had used one before and loved it, so maybe I was spoilt by the neo-natal pump?. It was like a Fiesta compared to a Ferrari. ...  Read the complete review

I bought one of these just over three years ago when my first son was born. I breast fed him for just over four months and started using the pump pretty early on at about 4weeks although you are advised to wait 6 but I just wanted to get out of the house and needed some freedom. I found the pump to be brilliant. You basically attach the small bottle to the end, switch on and away you go. The art is to get all of the nipple sealed round the pump and push it quite far else it wont work. It does feel funny to start and you may think it will hurt you but you will be fine. I started expressing on a regular basis and bought the avent bags which go in the freezer ...  Read the complete review

I got this pump when I had my first baby. Having first tried a hospital electric one (worked but made me sore) and a Boots manual (totally useless) this was the third one my dear husband brought home and it was good. I used it a lot while breast feeding and could express quite quickly with it. I did find it noisier than I had expected, my husband thought it was a hilarious sound so I had to lock myself away in the bedroom along with a photo of the baby to stimulate the let down reflex (sounds rather dodgy doesn't it!). The pump is quite compact, easy to put together and take apart for cleaning and would fit in any steriliser I would imagine, as it is ...  Read the complete review
