Did you know...

that some insurance companies cover breast pumps!?!


This was new news to me, so I thought I would pass it along! A co-worker just sent me an email telling me about this, and then our breast feeding class instructor mentioned the same thing. Anyway, I know these bad boys can cost a pretty penny, so it may be worth checking with your insurance company. If you are a local Washingtonian you can also check out this medical supplier's site, I was referred to them through Regence.
Oh, and you can also inquire about shipping, that too may be covered!
Happy pumping ladies! Oh my word, I can't believe I just typed that, but it's staying.

you are so funny! love it!
I honestly didn't know that! But then again I have NEVER pumped well...kind of a bummer when I don't like to use formula too...just had to take the babe along! =) The high priced medical grade ones work SO MUCH better too...way more comfortable. I used one when I had my thyroid storm and was in the hospital for a bit when Jackson was only a few months old.

I hope you can get it covered!! Do you get massage therapy covered too???!!! =)
