Eeek! What if the power goes out and you're on an electricbreastpump?
This happened not once, but several times, in England recently, and
I've heard that it's happened in India, as well... and makes a curious warning for the users of electric-powered breastpumps! Amanda C____, was alone with her baby at home using an electric breastpump one day. She had the suction cups attached to both breasts at the same time, and the motor was going strong, (as loud as an electric shaver, as many of them are!) when suddenly THE POWER FAILED. It was a blackout in her neighborhood! The kind of power outage that takes a half-hour or more for the power company to find and fix... She was mortified to realize the suction cups were locked in place under FULL SUCTION, ---and they weren't letting go! It was a struggle just to try to get herself loose from the machine! As if that weren't bad enough, the phone rang! It was an important call, although I wasn't told if it was her husband or her office. But she was 20 feet away from the phone and couldn't get free of the apparatus to reach it in time! She and another user, Miriam on the outskirts of Liverpool, got literally bruised by these experiences. People "beat themselves up" with an electric system. That's exactly how a woman described this to me. But this would never happen if a person was using the patented purple pedal powered "Versaped" system. It also has this wonderful virtue in which money saved can be applied to having a better life: It is as inexpensive to buy a BRAND NEW "Versaped" model as to buy a USED electric system. And, it runs without electricity. And, the suction and rythem is self-administered and self-adjustable. This makes for an altogether more pleasant, as well a safer, experience, than having a motor cranking away, and dials to turn, etc. And the question must be asked, even with sterilization, DO YOU REALLY want yourself, (or your daughter, sister, wife, or friend) to be collecting milk with a USED breastpump, when a NEW one IS available for the price you'd rather pay? Here's a link to the site which explains everything, http://www.breastpumppedal.com and although it is proudly Made In The U.S.A., shipment is available to anywhere in the world for this wonderful, inexpensive system... even England!
