Many threads on this topic recently- you might scroll down in the past week or do a search.

Generally for pumping at work every day, people recommend a double electric. The Medela Pump In Style Advanced is the most popular, with Lansinoh and Ameda Purely Yours as recommended less expensive pumps. Some people swear by manual pumps also- just depends on what works best for each person.

I rented mine from a local hospital its a medela sympony $70 per month - I pump lots in just 10 mins! TOTALLY WORTH IT - YOU SHOULD SEE MY FREEZER. My son is only 6wks old and I have a supply for about another 6 weeks right now and adding everyday. when I go back to work I will BF at home and send milk to daycare. I started bottle feeding him (B-milk) at 2wks and he has no nipple confusion and will take the bottle, breast, binkie at anytime.
