Has anyone else experienced this problem ... I have a dual pump by Evenflo but I can only single pump right now because a piece of the pump went down the garbage disposal as I was cleaning it and so now it is gone. I have checked with Evenflo and I am going to purchase a replacement kit when I get the money but right now single pumping I am not getting milk from both breast. My left breast seems to fill up alot more than my right breast. When I get ready to pump from the right breast I can pump for twenty minutes and MAYBE get an ounce from the left I get at least four. Just wondering if this is normal. Thanks.:hugegrin:

Oh, that's a shame! What part did you lose? Lemme guess, the little white membrane? Oh and to answer your question, I always get way more from my right side than my left? I think it's normal.

I think I have that pump. It was baught as an emergency pup when my son was born. I also have an Ameda Purley Yours Breast Pump. I think the Ameda is more comfortable and is quieter.

I have an Ameda purely yours....I would not recommend it. I have problems getting even suction with it and it led to some painful engorgement. I know other people who have had it and it was fine, but mine is not. I am renting a Medela Lactina......it works a ton better and its more comfy b/c I could get horns that are the right size, although the parts are harder to clean in my opinion.
