Initially I bought an Avent Isis to use when my baby was first born, which was fine when your breasts are full or engorged and the milk flows easily.
I found though that once my baby was settled into a routine it became more difficult to produce a let-down using the Avent Isis.
So I decided to by the Medela from Boots.
Its not difficult to put together, infact it has less bits than the Avent.
The nerve wracking bit was putting your nipple into something which you think is going to pull it to about 4 inches long.
But I must admit it didn't, once you start on the lowest suction and work your way up you realise how easy it is.
And the results.. well 6-70z in about 5 minutes without any hassle or tears!
OK it is noisy, but no louder than a hairdryer, just turn the TV up, and its worth it if it means you can produce all the milk you need without stressing yourself.

    Sounds as if it's great. I'm glad I never needed to use one of these, though, I think I'd have found it a bit traumatic even if it did work well. Welcome to Ciao! Sue
