Where can I hire a breastpump in Auckland or on the North Shore?
My one isn't working very well anymore and I am still planning to express once or twice a day for the next few months. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Also you can hire them from the NICU shop at Auckland hospital, they have the good double pumps. ------------- http://pregnancy.baby-gaga.com/" rel="nofollow">

Thanks! Its looking like the hiring costs might justify me just buying another breastpump, even if I can find one secondhand and just replace the valves. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

If you just need to get the valves then get hold of places that sell them coz a lot of them sell the parts on their own -------------

I dont know whats wrong with it, it could be just the valves, or maybe the battery pack is on its way out. Hoping to get it to the Avent suppliers and maybe they can tell me. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Hehe, so after all that I took a good look at my breastpump this morning and saw it had a different handle and top included for manual pumping.
Used it during lunch and I think I actually got more milk out faster that way than I did using the battery/mains power. I'll blame sleep deprivation for me not noticing it before! Course I think it also means the issue isn't with the valves because I am using the same ones to manually express? Either way, issue sorted and I can keep expressing without needing to hire/buy a new pump. ------------- http://lilypie.com">
