I've put on my Walmart registry the:

Playtex - Embrace Double Electric Breast Pump, BPA Free-$138.54

and on my Target one:

Playtex Electric Double Breast Pump System-$179.99

They only have a few differences and the price difference is noticeable.... So what im asking is, I know walmart has a great return policy but im the one who is already stressed out about breastfeeding. Should I even buy a pump ( I couldnt get anything out of my first one with Mason, it was cheap but electric...) ?? And can I return it if I need to ? Im willing to pay the 180 and be able to return it... Targets return policy sucks.

Oh, and if you've had or heard any experience with either of those pumps could you let me know !! TIA

I agree, Target's return policy does suck. I hate even buying stuff there anymore.

Do you have insurance? When I was pregnant with my 1st, I got my breast pump (Medela Pump in style) for free through my insurance. My doc wrote a prescription for it and I took it to the pharmacy that had the pumps. It would be worth checking into.

Thats true... I work in a pharmacy and havent thought about that... I dont know any that do carry BP but we have a pat grimes that will accept things like that writen like a Rx. Thanks for the tip !!

I have only known one mama that I worked with that could get her store bought pump to work well for her, but she was a GREAT mookie cow full of milk.

Have you looked into monthly hospital grade pump rentals? Every mom I know who has used one has had great success with them.

I can't tell you how many times mama's felt they wasted money on the department store ones.

And if you do go that way and it works for you...please let me know!

I completely and totally agree. I would see about renting one and see if it's going well first before putting out that kind of money.
