Renting breast pumps?
I know that they are expensive, especially the bettery op ones, but are the rental ones, I dunno, sanitary?
Is there one place that has a good rep?
Thanks!

I'm going to rent one too and I haven't totally looked into it yet, but you can rent it from the hospital or certain drug stores, so I would imagine they're pretty clean. Plus there's a kit you have to get with it that come with some of the other parts just for you that would not be recycled.

I rented one with DS.... You purchase kit that includes the tubes, breast shields and containers. I got the kit from the pharmacy where I rented the pump.
ETA: This is the one I rented.... The blue part is what you actually rent. All the other peices come as part of the kit brand new.

Yup. I agree. Rent one, I had my rental for 8 months and I used it every single day. It was hospital grade and would have cost thousands!

I rented one and it was a good choice for me because I had to stop bfing after 3 months for health reasons.
It was $50.00 for the 1st 3 months and then goes to $40.00. You buy the accessories seperate so it is santiary. You are just getting the engine, so to speak. I have a great LC who you can rent or buy from and her prices are better then BBB or BRU even with coupons. FM me if you want info
