So do Nuby's special silicone cups really do the business or will our First Look tester be left with an engorged sense of disappointment? Read on to find out… What are the stand-out features of the Nuby Natural Touch? A double, extra high-tech Breast Pump for expressing up to 9 levels from both boobs at the same time! Second time around I wasn’t able to breastfeed anyway so it was bottles all the way. I couldn’t believe how free I felt, being able to leave the house and leave someone else do the feed! It just never occurred to me to have done that sooner! Bonus: it also has a rechargeable battery and is compact enough to go on holiday with you. Are electric breast pumps worth it? So, what’s new about it? Medela has created new Flex breast shields that help to express more milk and provide more comfort when pumping. As a result, it’s very easy to set up and use, and efficient at collecting milk.

What are the main features?

Although a newcomer to the field, femtech startup Elvie has really shaken up the market with its electric breast pump, which is not only silent but also offers women the ability to pump discreetly while on the move, doing something else or out and about (yes, that includes during a meeting).

Nuby Natural Touch Digital Breast Pump - Boots

The best electric breast pumps are brilliant and designed to make the lives of new mums easier – so they can go out, go work, or go nap. I have had such different experiences with each of my children and I think third time around I have finally found a balance that works for me. As a first time mum I was too shy to breastfeed in public and so stayed home or made very short trips out, ensuring I was always home for feeds. I did that for 5 months and never even thought to express anything to allow myself some me time. Can be used at home with the mains adaptor, and on the move with a rechargeable Li-ion battery that lasts for up to three hours Medela's Freestyle breast pump is another popular choice, and Philips' single breast pumps are also extremely well-rated. Is a hand pump better than an electric?If you often find yourself needing to pump on the go, or at work, Medela’s new Harmony Flex Manual is a great choice. Despite its sturdy build quality, it weighs only 105 grams and is much easier to carry around than an electric pump. Unlike a manual breast pump, an electric breast pump doesn’t require you to repeatedly squeeze the handle for milk to be expressed. Nuby’s Natural Touch not only has a wordy title to live up to, but claims to encourage milk let down and mimic your baby's feeding action by drawing milk from the breast, as opposed to squeezing the nipple. The silicone cup that fits to your breast has a three-phased action (massage, draw and collect) which is supposed to encourage milk flow. Probably the most established brand for breastfeeding mothers, Medela’s iconic Swing design has remained unchanged since it was first launched in the 1960s. It’s a design classic that’s also brilliantly functional. For the occasional pump if you need to leave your baby with a relative or friend as a one-off, a manual pump will likely suffice.
