<p>The outer pads of the Gerber manual breast pump work to massage the breast tissue just like a baby would, in order to promote the let down of milk for the best pumping. The inner pads mimic the natural movement of the baby’s tongue, which helps to further stimulate milk production once it has already let down. The two sets of massage pads on the breast pump funnel work together to simulate the natural sucking motion of a newborn baby, making it possible to mimic the natural rhythm of a nursing baby.</p>
<p>The Gerber breast pump hooks directly onto the storage bottle, which can be turned into a storage container and then directly into a bottle for drinking. The handle is curved to fit the natural shape of the hand, making manual pumping very easy and less strenuous than other brands. It is very lightweight and easy to take almost anywhere, and is simple to clean after every use. Gerber breast pumps are available with just the pump or in packs with several coordinating accessories, including bottles, storage packs, sealing disks, collars, caps, nipples, and much more.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We understand that you want your baby to receive the best you have to offer, even if you might be unavailable at times. Whether you work out of the house, want to store extra breast milk for later, or want to let someone else have a turn at feeding baby, a <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">good breast pump is essential</span>.<br />

<p>    The two <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">main categories are manual breast pumps and battery/electric breast pumps</span>. Of these, you’ll find single and double breast pumps. For women who pump often, a dual electric pump is often the way to go. For moms who pump infrequently, a small or cheap breast pump may be the best option. </p>
<p>    Almost everyone can agree that a mom wants what is best for her child, and breast-feeding is a great way to provide baby with the best food he or she can have. The only problem with breast-feeding is that many women have careers and other obligations; therefore they are not able to breastfeed every time their baby is hungry. <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Breast pumps are a great way for women to feed their baby the best food they can, but still engage in other activities </span>and let other family members enjoy feeding the baby as well.</p>
<p>There are a number of different breast pumps on the market, and different moms prefer different pumps. </p>
<p>The most basic style is the single pump, which works on one breast at a time. The single pumps work just like baby, only pumping milk from one breast at a time. <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Single pumps work best for career women or those who cannot be home all the time, since they are small and easy to take on the go</span>.</p>
<p>    Mini breast pumps are also great for working moms, since they work like a full-sized pump but can be taken almost anywhere. <a href="http://www.feedingbaby.net/Breastpumps/mini-breastpumps">Mini</a> breast pumps can be either single or double, which makes them practical for almost any mother who cannot be at home all the time. </p>
<p>    <a href="http://www.feedingbaby.net/Breastpumps/double-breastpumps">Double</a> breast</span><span class="contentfont"> pumps work best for moms who have <span style="FONT-STYLE: italic">twins</span>, especially since they need to pump more often that a mother with only one infant. Full size double breast pumps work great for moms who have twins and can pump while at home, which works great when trying to get other members of the family involved in feeding baby as well.</p>
<p>Single, double, and mini breast pumps all require some type of electrical source, and they can either be <a href="http://www.feedingbaby.net/Breastpumps/battery-operated-breastpumps">battery-operated </a>or <a href="http://www.feedingbaby.net/Breastpumps/electric-breastpumps">electrical</a>. <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Battery operated breast pumps work best for mothers who have to pump in a number of different locations</span>, since there is no need to find an outlet to plug the pump in. The only downfall with battery-operated pumps is that they do not have as <span style="FONT-STYLE: italic">much</span> power as an electrical pump that requires an outlet, so they may not work as well as a full-sized electrical pump. Mothers who are new to pumping or need to pump on a regular basis may want to consider an electrical pump, since they can provide more power to help the milk expel. Some pumps even come with both options, making it possible to use an adapter when possible or place batteries when on the go.<br />
There are a number of different companies that manufacture breast pumps, many of which also make other baby items<span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">.</p>
<p>      Medela is one of the most popular breast pump manufacturers, and they create one of the strongest pumps on the market</span>. Medela offers both single and double pumps, as well as many accessories and carry cases that make it easier for mom. Evenflo is another popular brand, and they also market breast pumps that can suit the needs for many new mothers. Even though <a href="http://www.feedingbaby.net/Breastpumps/medela-breastpumps">Medela</a> is the strongest pump on the market, <a href="http://www.feedingbaby.net/Breastpumps/evenflo-breastpumps">Evenflo</a> offers strong pumps at a much <span style="FONT-STYLE: italic">lower</span> price. <a href="http://www.feedingbaby.net/Baby-Bottles/Avent">Avent</a> and <a href="http://www.feedingbaby.net/Breastpumps/ameda-breastpumps">Ameda</a> also manufacture both single and double breast pumps, and even include accessories that work specifically with the pumps. All four of these breast pump manufacturers, as well as many others, work hard at creating a breast pump that is both affordable and practical for new mothers who want the best for their children.</p>
<p>Because there are a number of different pumps on the market, it is up to mom to decide which works best for her. <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Some prefer the larger, sturdier models that require an electrical outlet, while other mothers like the convenience of a battery-operated pump</span>. Double pumps can cut down pumping time, yet some moms like single pumps since one child only needs one breast’s worth of milk at a time. It is best to experiment with different pumps to find what works best, and <span style="FONT-STYLE: italic">always</span> keep a spare in case one breaks or gets misplaced. </p>
