Things to Consider When Choosing a Breast Pump

Breast pump shopping can feel overwhelming—so many styles, sizes, and features to choose from. At Pumps for Mom, we make it easier by helping you understand what matters most when selecting the right pump for you and your baby. Here are a few key questions to guide your decision and show you how Pumps for Mom supports you every step of the way. How Often Do You Pump? Your pumping frequency plays a big role in choosing the right pump. If you pump multiple times a day or exclusively breastfeed, a fully automatic double electric pump can be a huge time-saver. Pumps for Mom offers top-rated options that efficiently express milk from both breasts at once—perfect for busy moms who need reliable, hands-off performance. If you only pump occasionally, a manual or single-electric pump may suit you just fine. Pumps for Mom also provides access to hospital-grade pumps, like the Spectra S1 or S2, for moms who need stronger suction or have a baby who struggles to latch.  Whatever your situation, we carry pumps that support your unique breastfeeding needs. Where Do You Pump? Your pumping environment also influences what type of pump works best. If you pump often at work, a quiet, discreet double electric pump can help you maximize your time in the lactation room. If you’re primarily pumping at home, you may prefer the simplicity of a manual or single-electric option. Pumps for Mom offers a wide range of pumps designed for mobility, comfort, and low-noise operation—ideal for both home and workplace pumping. Does Your Insurance Cover a Breast Pump? Here’s where Pumps for Mom truly shines. Many new parents don’t realize their breast pump may be covered at little to no cost. Under the Affordable Care Act, most health insurance plans must cover breastfeeding support and equipment, including breast pumps. Pumps for Mom works directly with your insurance provider to determine your coverage, verify your benefits, and show you exactly which pumps are available to you. We handle the paperwork so you don’t have to. Just fill out our quick qualification form, and we’ll take it from there. Does the Pump Include Helpful Accessories? Most moms need more than just the pump itself—things like storage bottles, bags, multiple flange sizes, coolers, and carrying bags can add up fast. Pumps for Mom offers pump bundles and models that include essential accessories, making your pumping experience easier and more affordable. We help you get everything you need without the headache of hunting down extra parts. Whether you prefer the simplicity of a manual pump or the convenience of a double electric one, Pumps for Mom is here to help you choose the best fit for your lifestyle, your breastfeeding goals, and your baby. With one of the largest selections of insurance-covered and upgrade pumps available in one place, Pumps for Mom truly has a breast pump for every mom.
