Hospital Grade Breast Pumps

 Hospital Grade Breast Pumps which are recommended by a certified lactation consultant are always the best option to choose.  Some factors to consider will be noise, ease of pumping, suction level, and efficiency of the pump. But typically, a hospital grade pump is not the most powerful pump that you can invest in. Instead, users of hospital grade pumps tend to just purchase their own personal pumps for use while lactating. They're fine with purchasing multiple breastfeeding aids, one of which might be a hospital grade breast pump. It is always best to speak to a certified lactation consultant to seek advice and become fully informed before purchasing any breast pump or equipment for a breast pump. 

Plenty of hospital grade breast pumps were made to be the most powerful in class when considering design and comfort. They come in a variety of styles, including straight gripping, curved, or curved handle designs. These pumps are often made of stainless steel, as that's most often the most nutritious material. Both curved and straight (galloping) handles are relatively reversing- municipalities. The certified lactation consultant who you speak with will be able to look at your budget and needs and advise the best product to choose. 

Most pumps are not advertised as being "easy" to use. In fact, they're not "user-friendly" at all. Like any medical aid, ease of use is the most important consideration. Unlike a C-section, for instance, pumps are not designed to allow mom to be tied down to the table while making a feeding. A hospital-grade pump is not the most powerful or comfortable tool to have while making a feeding, which is why these are the ones strongly recommended by a certified lactation consultant. 

Realistically, moms who are new to using a nursing aid will benefit from a hand basin that is comfortable to use and allows the mom to feed comfortably without straining. Of course, this will depend on the level of comfort a mom considers important. A mom who is critically ill may want to consider a "just light use" type of breast pump and may feel much better using a hospital-grade pump. However, an ill mom who is not in discomfort and is simply trying to get her milk, the cheaper but larger and bulkier personal pump will not be a good choice according to a certified lactation consultant, who always prioritises a patient’s safety. Especially as new moms and new babies can be prone to infection, so it’s important to choose a breast pump which is hygenic and which has a low risk of infection getting into the working of the pump. 

Some moms will spend their first few months of breastfeeding using a hospital-grade pump. A certified lactation consultant will normally arrange this, examine the mother and help her to get to grips with using the pump. This does not usually take long, but at first it can seem tricky and not intuitive for some new moms. The certified lactation consultant will help the new mom to find a handle and get used to how her baby nurses. This may or may not be the best choice for one or two moms. Obviously, using a hand- basin makes the pumping easier for mom. These types of pumps are more compact, light, and easy to clean compared to personal pumps. In addition, they can be sterilised quickly, usually within an hour, saving mom the agony of blocked milk ducts. However, if you must use a hand-basin for prolonged periods of time,  your certified lactation consultant will advise you to purchase a good hospital grade breast pump.

However, if buying a personal pump is not an option, make sure to consider buying an efficient pump that you can use well, though you may save time by using a hospital-grade pump for a short while. With either option, keep in mind how efficient the pump is and how easy you'll find it to use, always seeking advice from a certified lactation consultant..
