    Hello Ladies,

    I read online reviews of a few but not sure which one to go with. Any help/reviews/suggestions would be highly appreciated.

    Thanks a lot in advance!

    Rgds,

    Medela brand is good. Please check if you can get a double sided one in Medela. That's the best.pumps faster and helps to maintain supply even when you start working.

    I think spectra fits only wide neck bottles where as medela has standard size which fits any standard size bottle of any brand. But not sure about spectra.

    Personally I am comfortable with standard size bottles than wide neck bottles.

    Usually in most of the Hospitals they provide you Medela breast pump after Delivery for use. So, that you can use and decide whether to go for it or not.
