Philips AVENT Isis Manual Breast Pump (Discontinued by Manufacturer), Fabulous Pump in my opinion

Posted by Unknown on 6:26 AM

A week ago. I'm looking for information on the Philips AVENT Isis Manual Breast Pump (Discontinued by Manufacturer), so i have to tell.

before I bought the Avent Isis pump (after reading the reviews) with the plan to pump occasionally. I tried to use it in the hospital, but could not draw a drop! Unfortunately I had a lot of problems breastfeeding (extreme pain) and decided to buy the Medela Pump in style so I could pump my milk and feed the baby from the bottle. This worked well for 3 months-I double pump for 15-20 minutes and get a total of 4-5 oz. the downside of Medela is it though is heavy to carry around, noisy and require electricity, so it is not very practical if you are traveling or out shopping for the day! Also, if you're pumping "League" double hands then if you are alone with the child and they retrieve a pacifier or answer the phone you must turn everything off, UN-attach the bottles (otherwise you tip easily) and get cleaned up! The Avent is much easier in this regard. I had tried the Avent again (after leaving the hospital), but still could not get more than a couple of drops, then reluctantly preparing to stop breast pumping altogether (before going on holiday) and return to the formula. Yesterday I decided to make one last attempt and after re-adjusting it on the breast a couple times I had incredible suction and pumped 2.5 oz from a breast in just 3 minutes. I think the trick is to really Press firmly against your breast (so it is airtight) and place the nipple in the Center. you need a couple of times to get it going (it feels a little uncomfortable), but then the milk really begins to flow. If you re-adjust every few minutes. You can get even more milk by pressing different ducts. I am now using this instead of the electric pump as it is so much faster. Read more ›
