Medela Swing Question


Medela Swing Question....

I have ordereds a Medela swing in the UK and my folks are bringing it over for me in a few weeks. Chatting to my Dad he said the batteries didn't come with it and he'd have a look what type it needed before he went away for a few days....

Anyway he's gone away and I have no e-mail tellling me what I need

So if anybody has a Medela swing can you tell me what batteries it takes. Also do they charge in the unit or do I need a separate recharger?

Thanks

I bought one yesterday and I must say it is great. I was using a Tommee Tippee closer to nature one and could manage 2oz at the most and that would take over 45mins.
Just sat and expressed for 10 min and got 4 oz! Wow,
Grandmas at the ready to baby sit now I can get enough milk expressed!
