Just learned that my insurance covers a $200+ double breast pump and I am SO "pumped" 😂

Oh my goodness, people used to say that to me all the time "oh the baby gets hungry? Just whip out your boob". In a perfect world, maybe, but reality? I had to bottle feed him breast milk here and there @sarahdrew

exactly, about a week or so ago I went off on someone's post (the original post said America could save 13 billion a year if every new mom breastfed for 6 months, I think they were talking about the cost of formula and wic) and someone said bottle feeding was hard because of having to wash all the bottles (which I agree that is tedious as I bottle fed breast milk to my son) and all us breastfeeding mom's had to do was "pop out a boob" I read it like 6 times before I could wrap my head around it lol..... I am not saying one way of feeding is better or worse than the other as long as baby is taken care of..... I went on to tell this woman all breastfeeding entails right down to the fact we get shamed for doing it in public or told to go in the bathroom @natzilla

I just hate that they're so expensive! If they were just a little cheaper, like $150 I can do. But the Evenflo single one I had was horrible and I just stopped using it all together. Medela looks like a good one to use, it's just too pricey for me. I have time to save if anything, I just know my boyfriend's going to have a heart attack when he sees the price 😂

I feel you on that lol I was so discouraged when I went in, my husband said we would figure it out (I couldn't find the one I used last time lol) so the day I had my daughter he went and bought a new one

I have Aetna, and they gave me all these different websites so I just picked a random one and gave them which insurance provider I had and they gave me a list of options. I hope they don't screw me on it, because I don't want to do the single pump again 😭 Lol @sarahdrew

unless it's thru your job, my insurance thru my job during my first pregnancy sent me one for free, if it's private insurance (which is what I had this time) that's where I ran into issues

be careful, my insurance said that however when I went to the medical supply store they said they would only give me a single electric, since the insurance only pays them a certain amount they don't give the double as they would have to "eat" the remainder of the cost..... it was horrible so my husband went and bought me one that is almost $300 lol..... I think it's wrong that the medical supply stores don't give you what you are told they cover

Breast pump covered by insurance

I've already done what I needed to find out what type of pump I get covered through insurance. It turns out, with my insurance, I can't even get my pump shipped to me until I call them with all the birth details of my baby. So...wth am I supposed to do having a baby and no pump?! I plan to pump exclusively and this REALLY throws a wrench in my plans.

babybump_user You may want to ask your doctor for a prescription for a hospital grade pump if you
may042017 I will be ordering the Medela Pump in Style. I'm pretty sure my insurance covers either that
babybump_user With my insurance I couldn't get one till after baby was born and it took forever to
