So next time I can simply share this post with my friends, especially the first-time mummies-to-be, easily with this link hahahas. Hopefully it is useful for the other mummies-to-be too! 

[Portable Pumps Review] Pumpables Milk Genie Plus vs Spectra 9s+

One of the things breastfeeding mummies have to prepare when going back to work is a good portable pump! It is important to get one that can clear you milk thoroughly so you do not end up having clogged ducts during work! I got a Spectra 9S+ pump but the suction wasn't strong enough for me and I didn't feel empty even after pumping for 40 minutes each side when I tested it at home. Since the SuperGenie was working better than the Spectra S1+ for me, I thought to give the Pumpables Milk Genie Plus a try too! I have to say this is the best pump I own and I would highly recommend this to all mummies cause it is portable yet it gives me the same yield as the Spectra S1 which is hospital grade!

So here's a comparison of both pumps! [Note: Use promo code SHOP10-KATELYNTAN for 10% off storewide on pumpables.com]
