Midwife-led • Evidence-informed
If you’ve been wondering whether you need to express, when to start, or what to do…
this will give you simple, practical answers.
👉 Get clear on expressing
Expressing is one of the most confusing parts of preparing for feeding.
You might be wondering:
“Do I need to express at all?”
“When should I start?”
“Will it affect breastfeeding?”
“What if I get it wrong?”
You just need:
👉 A simple understanding of when a pump might be helpful
👉 And what to look for if you choose to use one
Breast pumps can feel confusing. You might be wondering: “Do I actually need one?” “Which type is best?” “Should I get one before baby arrives?” “What if I choose the wrong one?” There’s a lot of information — and a lot of products — but not always clear guidance.

That’s exactly what this session gives you.
You don’t need to decide everything now — just understand what might be helpful.
Before investing in a breast pump, pause and take a moment to consider your options. It's essential to choose the right breast pump for your individual needs—doing so can significantly impact your breastfeeding experience.
Many women rush into purchasing a breast pump without first understanding their specific requirements, which can lead to costly mistakes. Using the wrong pump can result in discomfort, potential breast damage, and even impact your milk supply.
In this course, we provide valuable insights to help you make an informed decision about breast pumps. You'll learn about the different types available, what features to look for, and how to determine which pump is best for your situation.

Testimonials
"I genuinely feel more in control of my feeding journey now, and that’s something every new mum deserves. I couldn’t recommend both the pump and the course more — they’ve made a huge difference to my experience."
"As a new mum, I honestly didn’t realise how overwhelming feeding could feel in those first few weeks. When I decided to express I was overwhelmed by all the options - and costs!. Being able to express milk efficiently has taken so much pressure off and allowed me to share feeding with my partner, which has been really special"
"The expressing course was incredibly reassuring. It broke everything down in a way that felt manageable, especially during such an emotional and tiring time. I went from feeling unsure and anxious to feeling confident and informed about what I was doing and why.."
