You may remember that I blogged about know what is covered under your insurance and any extra perks.
Well when I called to order my milk storage bags they asked me if i wanted a pump kit.
I assumed this was the same kit that I got in the hospital that went with the hospital grade pump I am renting.
I said sure as it is always nice to have extra supplies.
So I was surprised when it came in the mail and it was an
Ameda Purely Yours electronic Breast Pump!!!
I looked it up on Amazon just to see the reviews and costs as I was planning on buying a pump from Buy Buy Baby with gift cards I had been saving as I was going to need something to travel with and also when I went back to work.
A 200$ breastpump for free WAHOO!!!
Now I know it is not the top of the line breast pump-
but it came with a bag, cord adaptor , extra bottles, and carry case.
Free is better than spending my own money- so I am not being picky!
I also love that it can be operated by battery, making it easier and more portable.
Some of the Medella pumps have to be pluged into to an outlet to work.
So what have I put in this pumping bag:
1)Extra pumping bags- I was given two Ameda adaptors which connects the Ameda bags to the actual pump which makes the bottles unnecessary. However, until I get efficient at using the pump.
I left two bottles in the bag.
2) Manual pump- the kit also came with am Ameda manual pump which is this small adaptor that you add to the bottle. I figure I would leave it in- just in case.
3) Pumping bra- I ordered an extra one just in case and decided I am going to leave it in my bag
4) Nursing Cover- Figured I might use this when traveling
5) Lanolin- I love this stuff so I put one tube in the side pocket.
6) Small little cooler to store my pumped milk in.
7) Extra Batteries- You never know when you are going to need these!
8) The directions- I put this in the front pocket just incase I have a problem since I am still learning the pump.
WAHOO for Free MILK!
One less thing I have to pay for!
