While a hospital grade breast pump is generally too expensive for anyone other than… well, a hospital to buy, it is still possible to rent one. There are many reasons why a mother may choose to rent a hospital grade breast pump:

· Not able to pump – Some mothers may think that they are unable to express milk simply because they have had no luck with it in the past. Of course, when they previously tried, they likely used a less-than-optimal pump. A hospital grade breast pump may very likely help some of these mothers were unable to express milk before.
· Mechanical problems – If you have rented your hospital grade breast pump, you do not have to worry about any mechanical problems: the company that owns the pump should either fix the pump or trade it for a different one.
· Cheaper than buying – It is cheaper to rent a high quality hospital grade breast pump than to buy one. While prices can vary, the average is about $50+ a month. This is, of course, more expensive than buying a cheap breast pump, but that cheap pump may break down and likely will not express milk as effectively.
· Temporary fix – A mother who only plans to pump milk for a week to just a few months should not have to buy an expensive pump! Instead, she should simply rent one.

If you have decided to rent a hospital grade breast pump, you can first check with your – surprise! – hospital. But not all hospitals rent. Therefore, you may also want to check lactation consultants and medical supply stores. Do not be afraid to ask for a referral from your hospital.
