We would be happy to loan you our double umbrella stroller (Maclaren Twin, I think?). It folds up small and the sides each can lay down. I used it a lot when J was 2 and G was a newborn.

I just didn't know how much preference I had in WHICH pump they had to cover, know what I mean? But it's great to know they have to cover a rental! I'll give United a call this week and see what's up. <br /><br />I just remember calling to see if they would cover our homebirth. Oh, the conversations I had. "You can do that?" "That's legal!?" "I'm not even sure what you're talking about?" :)Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15731522310377495376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6947122389840787125.post-72474684578724163042013-02-07T15:05:06.076-06:002013-02-07T15:05:06.076-06:00No idea why my name shows up as "Veggie Cooke...No idea why my name shows up as "Veggie Cooker" - this is your across the street neighbor :o)Veggie Cookerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10911484754286856392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6947122389840787125.post-62095345794441202392013-02-07T15:04:31.693-06:002013-02-07T15:04:31.693-06:00Emily - I had HUGE supply issues (e.g. I almost ha...Emily - I had HUGE supply issues (e.g. I almost had to give up) and I still have to power pump every single night to keep up my supply. Anyways, the Medela breast pump I got I absolutely love and made it so I could breastfeed little H. And, according to the Healthcare Affordability Act they HAVE to give you a breast pump or cover a rental (it depends on the health insurance company, but United is what clergy have, and it's what I had through Vanderbilt - I know it depends on provider, but their legal folks know they have to cover it). Anyways, I got a free breast pump thanks to the act, so it's worth checking into. And, if for some reason the conference offers pushback, let me know because I'll happily petition them with you.Veggie Cookerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10911484754286856392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6947122389840787125.post-43296677667784409732013-02-07T13:58:58.730-06:002013-02-07T13:58:58.730-06:00Good call!

I'll give it a shot - although I'm sure my insurance will be like "what!?" Ha! Worth trying. Yeah, I'm a snob about the hospital-grade rental. I had such supply problems that it was the only one worth my time.

Mine covers an Ameda Purely Yours (though you have to order it from a specific medical equipment provider, and there is lots of backorder drama right now due to the insurers and equipment companies not having their poop in a group by the first of the year...), but some insurers will give you several options, and may even cover the cost of a hospital grade rental instead. So you might be able to save some money and still get the pump you want! <br />Aimeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18286130000436019837noreply@blogger.com
