Studies have shown that babies nurse in two phases: Initially, they suckle fast and light to stimulate the milk ejection reflex and to start the milk flowing. Then, they switch to a slower and deeper suck to get as much milk as quickly as possible.

How do babies nurse?

What is 2-Phase Expression®?
It is the only research based breastpump technology to mimic a baby's natural nursing rhythm. First rapid stimulation, then slower expression.

The Breastpump can be sent for when your baby is due to arrive or on the date you wish.

Hiring a Breastpump can be an ideal choice for Mums who are not completely sure if they would like to Breastfeed long term or who don't wish to outlay lots of money on a good quality pump. 

You can use a hire pump at home or in hospital. These exact pumps are used in a lot of UK hospital so its nice to use the same one you have become used to at home too.

 * Hire is for 14 days initially.

* You can then extend the hire for another 30 days at a cost of £40.00.

(Delivery, collection and a new double pump kit is included in the inital £65 payment).  If you cancel your trial/hire after receiving it or within the 14 days you will receive £25 refund providing the new sealed double pump kit hasn't been opened).

You may can keep it as long as you need it.  You pay the initial £65 first for the 14 days trial/hire, then if you keep your pump for longer, Medela will charge the second payment to your card (£40 for another 30 days).

By hiring instead of buying, you will receive a good quality pump, backed up by great customer service from Medela, who can talk you through any problems or issues directly.
