Question about the Medela Breast Pump In Style?

Question

I have a medela breast pump and yesterday I accidently dropped my whole bottle full of milk and broke a part off of the tubing of the breast pump. I didn't see the tubes at babies r us, I didn't see them online either. I was wanting to know where can I find a tube so that I can pump. I'm totally dying! I don't have a credit card so I can't order them online. Is there a store I can go to? I've also heard of women buying the tubes for a fish aquarium and using those, anyone done that? Please I neeeeed help

Answer 1

You can usually purchase a kit at the hospital. The kit includes a bottle to pump into, the tubing and usually a round thing that can be hooked up to the hospitals machine. I would call the hospital ask for the lactation consultant and then ask her the question.  

Answer 2

Target has some parts,but I don't know about tubing. Call your local lactaion consultant, la leche group, or hospital and ask who rents pumps. They might know. Hospitals sometimes sell pumps in gift shop.

Answer 3

If you go to ebay you can order one. You can pay with paypal, they take it directly from your bank account. I ordered the tubing for min off there and it was like 15.00 dollars

Answer 4

if you have a paypal account, you can get the tubes off ebay

The medela website offers a locator for stores in your area that sell the pumps and accessories; here's a link:

Also, they have a phone number listed there to call if you have questions:

Your local hospital might be able to help too; mine actually has a little breastfeeding "boutique" right there on site.  At the very least one of their lactation consultants should be able to point you in the right direction.  Good luck!
