Over the years, the support for breastfeeding has grown steadily. In the past, moms would turn to formula milk as a default, but nowadays, breastfeeding is highly encouraged.
There's even a law that mandates rooming-in of the baby and the mother right after delivery to initiate breastfeeding. And if that's not enough reason, the physical, emotional, and mental benefits of breastfeeding are more than enough to encourage mothers to breastfeed.
If moms are going to fully commit to breastfeeding, though, one of her must-haves is a breast pump. This machine would literally be her "breast friend" in the next few months or years.
So to help moms and moms-to-be with their breastfeeding journey, we've prepared a rundown of the electric breast pump prices in the Philippines for every budget.
We know. Choosing a breast pump can be overwhelming because there are just too many brands and kinds of breast pump out there. To help you sift through all these products, we've picked out the best brands from a vast price range. There are other kinds of breast pumps out there like manual pumps and hospital-grade ones, but for this list, we'll be focusing on electric breast pumps.

The electric breast pump is perhaps the most commonly used breast pump among Filipinas since it's efficient, portable, and convenient to use. For moms on-the-go, this kind of breast pump is a popular choice. But before you get yourself one, consider these factors first:
-
Functionality
- Electric breast pumps are either single or double pumps. Many working moms prefer the latter because of its efficiency--you can express milk on both breasts at the same time. However, if time is not an issue, a single pump would work just fine. So look at your lifestyle to help determine the pump for you.
- Check out also if the speed and suction can be adjusted for your comfort.
-
Ease of use
- Over time, you'll become a pro at pumping milk. You'll be surprised with how quickly you can assemble your breast pump. But it would be much easier if you begin with an uncomplicated pump in the first place. Choose one that you can easily put together. If you're pumping at night, one with an LED light also helps.
-
Portability
- If you're going to bring it to the office, look for something that's lightweight and won't give your shoulders a hard time. Most brands now have a provision for rechargeable batteries so you don't have to look for an outlet when pumping.
-
Price
- What suits your budget? It's good to have a budget in mind when choosing your breast pump so you don't go beyond what you're comfortable spending. The good thing is there's a wide array of pumps available in the market now so you can definitely find something for you.
