Thanks so much for doing this video! I loathe pumping, mostly because of how impractical it is while trying to care for small children. The fact that I would be able to pump and cook dinner at the same time is a game changer. I hate being tethered to the wall. I got things to do! 😁

@michalluriewjoelustica6545 Год назад

Absolutely! For my next baby I will purchase the Willow or Elvie

@mattc9446 3 года назад

My wife hates her life using this because it malfunctions so much... like I’m a man commenting on a breast feeding video because I’m dealing with a mental breakdown. Maybe it’s the difference in nipples so I’m going to need everyone log their nipples from Stevie wonders to National Geographics

What is the ongoing cost? Do you need to change parts often? Besides de bags?

@DierMe00 Год назад

How well would this work with different breast shapes and nipple placements? I had to get special flanges for my medula because my nipples point to the floor. I am nervous this pump wouldn't work for me.

@kellydamiano4685 2 года назад

Do you recommend having this pump alone without a standard electric pump? I feel like this would work better with my active lifestyle, however not sure which to use my insurance for, and they will only cover 1 pump (or partially cover this one). Thanks!

@pcortes20 2 года назад

A friend of mine has it and she loves it, But she also made sure to have a regular one on hand just because of the Willow being cordless and needing to charge.

@mariahyoung8210 2 года назад

I was so excited to get this pump but it is so painful. I have been using it on the lowest suction level, made sure I have the correct flange fit, and made sure I have a supportive bra. The suction on this pump is nothing like I’ve ever seen. It deforms your nipple. My nipples are blistered, bleeding, swollen and hurts during and after pumping. Just not for me and I am so stressed and upset because I really wanted to love it. 😭

@NewLittleLife 2 года назад

Which generation did you get? Just curious?

@oatmealtruck7811 2 года назад

Have you tried using a different nipple size? That can make a big difference

@christinavargas88 Год назад

which did you get the older version or newer one just asking because i wanted willow the 3.0

@umm.yahya88 3 года назад

How does this pump compare to the freemie in terms of size? I remember you saying the freemie cups run a little large. Do you find that true for the willow and the elvie as well?

@NewLittleLife 3 года назад

There’s a sizing guide on the willow website. I do feel like they’re just a little bigger than traditional flanges? I use the 21mm with the willow and 20-21mm with traditional flanges. No problems with the willow. I’m just experimenting with some inserts now!

@charmillekirton2188 3 года назад

Can you manually increase the suction level?

@NewLittleLife 3 года назад

Suction level yes! In expression mode

@stephtsui9385 Год назад

Can you provide information regarding putting the Willow in the refrigerator during the day instead of washing the parts after each pump session?

@NewLittleLife Год назад

I wouldn’t put the motor itself into the fridge, but you can look up the “fridge hack” and decide if that’s something you’re comfortable doing!

My daughter 4 days out from her C-Section tried her pump and it was defective. She did not like it and wanted her money back. Buy Buy Baby didn’t let her return or even another one or a credit so she called Willow and the told her they won’t return her money , they’ll give her tips but the won’t honor their product with one that works or give her money back. So fair warning before you spend almost 500 + on this . Think about a medical grade pump they work the best, can be brought to your home and they will help you understand how to use. Correctly.

@NewLittleLife 2 года назад

Thank you Kim for this feedback! If the pump is defective I’m surprised they won’t replace that under warranty!!

Any new discounts codes for Willow accessories? November or December 2020?

Right now there’s a discount for healthcare workers, teachers, etc. I’m waiting patiently on a Black Friday deal though! I’ll be sure to update this video and also post it on my Instagram as soon as I know! Www.Instagram.com/newlittlelifebyallison

@kartikapratiwi2886 3 года назад

is the 50c willow bag non-reusable?

@NewLittleLife 3 года назад

Correct. One time use. I have seen a few hack videos on RU-vid to reuse, but it’s kinda a pain and potentially unsterile.

@jyotisonkar808 2 года назад

How does Willow work if your breasts are releasing more than 5oz of milk at one pumping session? My sister usually fills up one bottle and a half of Medela which is usually about 5-7oz at a time.

@amandaren1797 2 года назад

Probably going to have to empty the container or the bag once it exceeds the limit and then continue pumping

@NewLittleLife 2 года назад

The bags hold 5 oz. the containers would be better, you can empty those a bit easier then continue pumping!

Hi, can you use this with one boob, like when im breastfeeding in one boob and pump in the other? Im still trying to establish my breast milk supply, my son's 8 weeks old, ive been using my sister's old pump. I can get about 2.5 oz on left boob and 1.5oz on the right boob if i pump after i wake up in the morning. When i breastfeed my son, i use the haakaa to collect milk from the other boob, i only get about 10ml if im lucky. I plan to use this while breastfeeding and maybe up my milk production. But if it doesnt start to pump unless i get 15ml, will it be pointless to buy this now?

@NewLittleLife 3 года назад

You can totally use it on just the one side! It starts pumping right away, it just doesn’t switch modes until there’s a little milk in there, which there likely will be if your feeding on the other side :) should be no problem! If you watch my videos on the Elvie pump, you can actually purchase just one pump if you want! It’s also a great pump and comes in a single option for half the price. Good luck!

@katielingefelt9359 2 года назад

I’m wondering if someone would still be able to work while using this. I’m a server and I don’t get an hour lunch like some so do you think i would be able to use this while I’m working

@jjmarcos 2 года назад

@jennahernandez4513 Год назад

I'm a server too and I just had a baby 2 weeks ago. I bought this specifically to be able to pump while working! We don't get any breaks at all where I work!

@@NewLittleLife thank you for the money saving tip lol I letdown in about 30 seconds. I hate letdown mode as the quick suckle makes me feel annoyed

@NewLittleLife 3 года назад

In theory, the pump should switch over automatically with your let down, even if it’s quick! But still one of my biggest annoyances with the willow that you can’t over ride it manually 😕

Yes I believe you can switch the vacuum level with the buttons on the outside.
