Yeah, that! I am an American, dp is Canadian, and I'm going to take my citizenship test this week, after 5 yrs here. I am going back in fall of 2009. Hmm, wonder why we decided to live here?

I have tried many pumps and for occasionally pumping the Avent manual is perfect. If you want a cheap double electric get the Lansinoh, it is the exact same pump as the Ameda and it is a great buy for the price. I pumped until my ds was 20 months and my milk dried up due to this pregnancy, so I have had some practice

I'm taking 12-14wks off.
I plan on pumping at work, I work 12h shifts 3xwk. My hubby is a glassblower and mostly works from home...so I'll be leaving her with dad on those days.
A week or 2 before I go back I am going to try and simulate my schedule with pumping and breastfeeding...we shall see!

Good luck to you! You can do it!!!!
