How to wash new breast pump parts

Just bought a new spectra dual. Do we bring the entire new set to hospital or do we need to wash and sterilise the parts before? How do we wash the tubings?

Can try uv steriliser. The baby express uv steriliser can store one set of pump parts and sterilise on the go if u need it

Breast pump after birth

I am thinking of getting a hands free pump like BeNude from baby express, instead of the usual hospital grade Spectra, Medela etc. Is a hands free pump sufficient for the first few weeks in and out of hospital? Heard the first few days in hospital need to use manual pump, nursing time for first few months needs the hospital grade electric pump and back to work needs a handsfree. I don't want to spend on so many types and I think hands free will suit me best, but not sure of its efficacy.

baby express pump is good enough I didn't use any pump during hospital stay

Can I do without a confinement nanny?

FTM. Anxious to know for those who were first time mom before, did you manage without help either hiring confinement nanny or mother? I am staying in a rented 1 room condo and we don't have enough space for baby cot and stuff, let alone space for confinement nanny to stay over esp we only have 1 toilet. Also knowing myself I won't be able to stand seeing nanny sitting around watching Netflix lol. My mom had refused to help sigh. Also its not possible to stay at her place as her house will be gg through government upgrading project. Those who had gone thro this before. Was it OK to manage on your own without help? I'm worried I can't cope esp If dunno how to breastfeed

Wishing you and your baby the very best. You can do it!

Does blood pressure generally increase after pregnancy? I always had low bP before pregnancy and I'm 8 weeks now, about 124/68

increase yes, due to increased blood volume and flow to support the pregnancy. but nothing to worry about, 124/68 is very normal. besides it’s only a one off reading that could be inaccurate.
