But - I just need to add this to avoid others being scared - I am an HIV/AIDS Policy Advisor for the government and HIV does NOT survive nor reproduce outside the body so it would be impossible to contract HIV due to breastmilk residue on a pump. If anyone wants research to back this up just pm me...however, other bacteria I am not aware of - so point taken - I'll save my pennies and see what I can do...thanks for all the very helpful info. k

Can you give me some idea about how it differs from the Medela? Thanks! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Lou in Edgewood, NM Waiting for Onnolee in Guatemala, born 3/1/07
