Doin’ the Pump

Posted by on December 22, 2006

I had no idea there were so many different pumps for mother’s milk that there would be a site called Breast Pump Reviews! But it seems like almost every female blogger I know has a brand new baby, so perhaps they will be interested in this site.

It is pretty widely known that breastfeeding is considered best for babies. I assume most mothers would prefer to breastfeed, but some aren’t able to for their own reasons, so they must use formula. There are probably some who are just “too busy” to give their babies the best, and postpartum depression probably makes some mothers want to avoid it, but I imagine the majority of formula-feeding mothers make the choice because they can’t get time off work to pump, etc. (The New York Times had an article about this called On the Job, Nursing Mothers Find a Two-Class System – that’s how I know some mothers aren’t able to pump at work.)

The breast pump review site has posts by users, so if you happen to be a breastfeeding mother and you have experience with one of the ones they describe, submit your comments!

    That is potentially very useful (I haven’t looked at the site yet but will). Thanks for posting this.
