I managed to get one of these from asda yesterday with the closer to nature bottles. Again not sure how I'll take to it but it was a darn sight cheaper to risk buying this one at £10 from asda than paying the full price of £25 in Boots!

I'll probably be getting the Medela electric breast pump this time around. You should consider getting an electric one, honestly, the manual breast bumps are such a pain and your hands hurt after awhile. I had a manual with my son and it drove me nuts . I ended up getting a first choice electric one and it was way better but the Medela is suppose to be the best.

Medela one is highly recommended and can be around £80-£100! Pricey but the one I would have bought!

If you have not BF before I would hold off and get one when you need one if you should. Im glad I didn't buy one as LO did not take to breast and after 23 hours labour and then 3 hrs kip I was too drained and stressed with alot of blood loss.

I know that medelas are recommended at thought of as the best since they're hospital grade and that's what they use in the hospitals but I heard they're not very comfortable to use, I just got the Playtex Embrace Deluxe Double Electric pump, it had really good reviews and is supposed to be very comfortable as they have things inside that massage, can't tell you my opinion yet as I won't be using it for a couple more weeks
