What to tell a mom about pumps

[Guest guest]

What do you tell a mom of a 34 wkr who wants to use a PNS?

I tell her not to.

I explain it like this:

You have a 10,000lb trailer you need to haul up a mountain.

What are you going to use? A Semi truck or a Toyota Camry?

Your milk supply = 10,000 lb trailer you need to handle

carefully and properly or risk crashing

Hospital Grade pump = Semi-truck – designed specifically

to do the job

PSN = Toyota Camry – designed for light use and

recreation…

Moms and their partners get it instantly. J
