Brilliant pads for any new mother.

Advantages: Cheaper than disposables and less landfill, soft and easy to wear.
Disadvantages: Initial outlay would be all but saves you money in the end.

Advantages: easy to use, comfortable, cheap
Disadvantages: fiddly to wash, lots of bits

FREESTYLE - fast but akward

Advantages: easy to express outside the home, quick to express, easy to clean, coolbag
Disadvantages: could not get the hang of double pumping, very expensive
