Congratulations! |
|
| That's not what I wanted... Your insurance provider doesn't cover the pump you want. Maybe they only offer a manual pump, and you need a double electric. Or maybe you want a pump with the latest technology, but it isn't offered. |
|
| What do you mean you're out of stock? No covered pumps are available at the in-network provider where you're required to get your pump, and you can't (or don't want to) wait. |
|
| Medical issues Your baby is in the NICU, you're having problems initiating your breastmilk supply or there's a physical abnormality or other medical condition that separates you from your baby or otherwise interferes with breastfeeding. |

| Help! You recently gave birth and are experiencing breastfeeding challenges. (Don't give up!) |
