I will stay with my baby until she’s 4 months old, then will return to work. I won’t probably breastfeed long after that, so I don’t want to buy an expensive electric breast pump, and thinking about a manual one. From your experience, which brand and model would you recommend? I was eyeing Avent Isis on the go set, is that one any good?

I loved my Avent Isis pump. It was the best breastfeeding accessories I bought. It was perfect when on the go and I couldn’t feed him. I always got a good amount of milk out of it.
Avent!! Avent Isis iv got it and love it. Its great and very easy to use, clean and assemble.
Use the Medela brand. I have had drs say not to use the Avent line at all. I got a free Medela manual breast pump in the hostipal when I had my son.
Medela! I bought this pump and I can get six ounces in 15 min (although that may have to do with my milk supply) The reason I love it is because it has two pump settings. One that mimics the quick light sucking that a baby uses to let down the milk and a deep suction that mimics when the baby is feeding. It is super easy to clean and so easy to transport (You may want to take the pump with you too work) I bought mine at Target for around 30 dollars. I hope this helps. Good luck!

I didn’t like the manual. I used the evenflo dual electric breast pump. It’s only $50 at Walmart. It’s electric or battery operated. It’s quick and easy to use.
Gerber! i was using The first years manual pump and it was horrible. Than I tried Gerber and I love it.
I’m gonna have to say get an electric one. The manual ones take forever and your hand gets tired. It’s only like 15-20 more for electric. You won’t be sorry. I have a evenflo electric…it’s on the cheaper side.
