Hello all! I am expecting a baby boy in late December and am having a hard time locating a breast pump that is not new. I am single and have a 2 year old girl so buying new is not the best option for me. Does anyone know of someone, or have a breast pump of their own that they would like to sell or rent to me? I would of course get the tubing and cups myself. Thank you in advance for your help!!
Hi S.,
I have a Medela "Travel in Style" pump that I am finishing up with. Works great and is the backpack kind. Let me know if you are interested.

Alot of the pumps that are sold are ment for a single user because the pump itself can be contaminated with mom's milk. I hope that you do find one. I was able to find a double pump for 20 in a resale shop that was brand new. Good luck.
Also I was just thinking that you should try WIC. If you can get on WIC they will give you a breast pump free if you go back to work full time. If your baby is born early and has to stay in the hospital they will loan you a pump. I've recieved both pumps. I went back to work when my first daughter was 9 months old and they gave me a pump so I could continue giving her breastmilk. My youngest daughter was born at 32 weeks and had to stay in the hospital and the WIC office loaned me a pump to continue giving her breast milk until she came home.
My friend has one that she is selling for $100---it is a Medela Pump in Style (great pump). Let me know if you are interested....she emailed me a picture of all the items....

Check with consignment stores such as Kid to Kid. I have seen Medela pumps there before and I know ebay always has some.
Check Craigslist. I saw 2 for under $50 today.
Hi S.,
I have a tandem stroller (Kolcraft, Li'l Limo XT). I bought it about 3 years ago. My oldest daughter was 3 years old when we had our second. On the back seat of the stroller, i used an evenflo infant car seat & it fitted really well.
Also, I have an evenflo breast pump & few other baby things like: Graco swing, toddler car seat, bathing seat, etc. Pl. let me know if you are interested in buying any of these. I live in Flower Mound, just in case if you want to stop by & have a look..
Good luck!
S.
