Anyone Tried a Hands Free Pumping Bra?

The BEST thing EVER!!!!! I used the Easy Expression bra for both of my children and seriously can't imagine my pumping experience without it. Go for it!!

My neighbor had one by Easy Expression (and just donated it to me!) and LOVED it. I'm excited to have it to use, since I hated having to sit there like a cow the first time around.
She said she used to do emails/work from home while she had it on with no issues.

Don't remember what brand I had- zipped up the front- but I would have lost my mind pumping at work and at home if I did not have it. Allowed me to work or read while pumping and I had a really hard time with my wrists if I sat there holding the pump- so the bra helped keep me pain free! I did not wear it under my cloths but it just took a second to put it on- once you got the hang of it.

Try this store:
A Mother's Haven
in Encino
I think I bought a bandeau with holes there, you wear it like a halter while pumping and it holds the nipple shields in place. If they don't have it, the owner would know where to get it.
Good luck!

I didn't have this with my first daughter but purchased it this time around. I couldn't believe I never used it before - such a great product! I couldn't believe that I pumped all that time at work and could have been multitasking! That's great to hear that pumps are now being sold with them.

I bought mine at The Pump Station. The woman was pretty particular in making sure I got the right size. They have locations in Santa Monica or Hollywood and I know you can also order it online through their website. You may also be able to call them and order it directly from them.

I loved my la leche league handsfree pumping bra. It made pumping SO much easier. There were times I was so busy at work I couldn't take a break and would use it while walking around doing my job. It worked beautifully. Even at home it just was more comfortable then holding them in place.

The down side is I did not wear it as my normal bra. It was bulky so I would quickly change into it prior to pumping.

Congrats!

Hi...I also had the halter that I could just zip on and off right before pumping. Don't tell anyone but...I had a job where I drove alot so I would pull over...get everything in place and start pumping...then drive to my destination! It was the best thing ever! I got mine at the breastfeeding store inside Long Beach memorial hospital...definitely worth the money.

yes mam! the best..you can sit at your computer and pump ...i think they're great i bought mine at the Pump Station in Hollywood..i just bought it alone..just threw it out actually or u know what u can do is take a tube top and cut holes in in right your nipples go and try that..i used the Easy Expression brand one

Once you pump with one you'll NEVER want to pump without!!!
It doesn't look like anyone mentioned yet, that without one, any slight movement you make while pumping, you can break the seal and a little milk then leaks down the bottom of your breast. Not the end of the world but messy and inconvenient, especially if you're at work.
I highly recommend them and just recently found one, for one of my friends who just had her first baby, on Amazon.com for like $19 with free shipping, I think. Best price I have seen!

LOVED having my hands free. Worth every cent.

I don't remember the brand, but I used one of these hand free bras for both breasts and it was godsend! Saved so much time and hassle, and let me do work and email while I pumped at work (with door locked, of course). I also credit this bra with making it easier to get my milk production up when I needed to add another pumping after my baby went to bed because I wasn't producing enough. I got mine from the Pump Station (there's one in Hollywood & another in Santa Monica), where they had a variety of options. The bra itself looks totally absurd, but was absolutely worth it!

My sil just bought the medela one and she loves it! Let's her do other thongs while pumping!

Nope didn't see any use for one...

The easy expression hands-free was GREAT for me! I loved mine! I would reccomend waiting until agter the baby is born, though, for sizing reasons. It needs to be fitted well in order to hold the horns in place. I ended up having a couple of them. I had to get a smaller size after my daughter was 7 months old because I lost the baby weight so fast from nursing.

I LOVED mine!! I don't remember the brand but I bought it at the nursing store in the hospital and they measured me for it.
