Many will tell you the pricey Medela Pump in Style is the only way to go, but this one worked great (check out it's awesome reviews) and is far less pricey. The beauty with this pump is that it's easy to clean...the tubing is kept protected from milk and never has to be cleaned.

The only bottles we used. They work well with the Lansinoh pump, can be frozen or refrigerated to store milk, and then you can put a nipple on and baby can take milk right from the bottle. No freezer bags necessary. Dishwasher safe. Any standard nipple fits them (not included).

Believe it or not, you don't want the Snugride 32. You might think it's better because it can hold more weight than this one but the 32 feels much heavier/bulkier. Besides when baby outgrows this, he/she will be ready for a convertible seat. The snugride has great reviews on consumer report for safety.
