When the time comes to pick a breast pump, it is almost impossible to know which one will work best for you. There are so many different brands and styles the choices can be overwhelming, especially as a new mom. We understand the struggle, which is why we wanted to share our top recommendations for each style of breast pump!

Oat Mama's Top Recommended Electronic Pump: Spectra S1/S2

Loved by moms and lactation consultants worldwide, the Spectra S1 Plus soft blue electric breast pump is designed to bring confidence and comfort to every moment of the breastfeeding journey. The S1 which is portable and rechargeable, is also quiet and discreet for soothing pumping, and yet weighs only 3 lbs. Our Founder, Heidi Humphries, insisted on the quietest motor available for the S1 Plus, which when in the “massage mode” simulates the natural suckling of baby. Spectra Baby spent years developing features for the S1 Plus like “backflow protection” to keep your breast milk from harmful bacteria. We thought hard about things like “adjustable suction levels” because that provides a more natural flow of milk.

The Spectra S2 Plus is essentially the same pump, but has a power cord and is not portable.  

Oat Mama's Top Recommended Hands-Free Pump: Willow

Everything works inside the Pump and inside your bra, with no external tubes, cords, or dangling bottles to hold you back. Milk flows into the self-sealing and spill-proof disposable collection and storage bag (an essential part of the Pump Kit) or reusable Container inside the Pump (Container accessory sold separately). Smart, proprietary technology responds to your body and maintains suction similar to a baby, enabling true mobility without spilling a drop. Lie down, bend over, play with baby, take a conference call… pump wherever the day takes you!

Oat Mama's Top Recommended Silicone Breast Pump: Haakaa

The Haakaa Silicone Breast Pump is made of a single piece of 100% silicone and provides an easy, eco-friendly and effective pumping experience! Forget large, loud and complicated automatic pumps that cost hundreds and need to be pulled to pieces and cleaned thoroughly every time you use them - the Haakaa Silicone Breast Pump will change your life! Its compact size fits perfectly into any handbag or baby bag and requires no hard work to use.

The Haakaa Breast Pump is perfect for long-distance trips, planes, car rides, family BBQs or anywhere you would like to express discreetly, silently and quickly. Just place over your breast and let the pump do the work for you as it draws your milk using suction. It's 100% eco-friendly and is safe for mum, baby and our environment.
