[@youhearthatsnap5180]

I’m really excited to use my unimom- I got it at no cost through BCBS because I’m having twins. I was shook, it came to my door 4 days after calling to request it.

[@NewLittleLife]

That’s awesome!! I hope you like it 💙 good luck with your twins! Feel free to reach out if you need any help.

[@ACaliangel91]

I got it and I mostly like it. My biggest issue is the tubing suddenly falls out when I’m pumping

[@NewLittleLife]

@@ACaliangel91 that’s a bit odd! Where does it disconnect from?

[@ACaliangel91]

It disconnects from the backflow protector. The tubes are attached to it and hang from the side. I pump and all of the sudden a tube pops off. I keep my pump nearby on my desk which is about the same height as where the flanges are

[@la.adicks9240]

I took have BCBS wondering if you went through breastpumps website or to your insurance company I got it offered to me at $56 but before I place my order I want to research if I can get it for free just like you

[@Insert.nickname_here]

I LOVE my Spectra SG and I would solely use it if it had a rechargeable battery. I’m just sad because I can’t find a portable pump that reaches those same standards set by my SG 😩

[@paulinasandoval9314]

I have the Unimom opera and I really like it but I am a first time mom so I have nothing else to compare it.

[@JustJA34567]

I didnt respond to the spectra gold at all, it takes me forever to get a let down. I've been trying to love the mso much because I bought two of them. Love my Opera though and if I want something smaller I pull out my LM duette. I really wish I learned what my body responded to best with cheaper pumps before I invested so much into those spectra golds. I know now I respond best to the higher cycle speeds in massage mode and the long pulls in expression mode. I love that my LM duette goes down to 20 cpm, i think thats why I do so well well wit the constant suction of the willow 3.0's.

[@savannahcantrell8034]

I am really considering getting the Unimom opera. I’m just a little weary because the reviews I’m seeing online are very mixed, and very few. I haven’t been able to find much about them. But I’m super interested. It’s just a lot of money to put out for a pump that might not work well for me.

[@OhSoGlamorous14]

Hi did you end up getting the unimom? If so, how do you like it? I’m having a hard time deciding if I want that one!

[@savannahcantrell8034]

I did not. I have really considered it. Still do. I’ve seen a few lactation consultants suggest it which is why I’m intrigued. I got the Pumpables genie advanced, and I love it. I think I’m gonna get another pump for back in case something were to happen to my GA. I’m torn between Unimom Opera and the Baby Buddha

[@riahpapaya8091]

I’m obsessed with my SG! I used it with my second and will be pulling it out for baby girl coming in April! With all new parts of course

[@NewLittleLife]

Love to hear it! I love the SG as well.

[@Badmaaishy]

My body did not respond to the unimom opera at all I used the spectra gold with previous baby so went back …was so glad I had a s1 as a back up saved my first week pumping… spectra the vibration on the suction is amazing love it

[@emilybrucks5419]

I didn't either at first. I pumped with spectra on one side for a few sessions and I still have to use massagers but I love the unimom

[@Badmaaishy]

Same can’t live without the lactation massagers … I really tried to like the unimom after a few weeks I had to give it up now on a hunt for wearables that I will respond to so hard

[@emilybrucks5419]

​@@BadmaaishyI've heard willow go is comparable to spectra but haven't used it personally

[@KelsiChristine]

I use both and im so glad you finally made this video!!

[@NewLittleLife]

What are your thoughts as a user of both? Which to you like and for what reasons?

[@winterrose2985]

I'd love to know as well please!

[@Badmaaishy]

Also my spectra manual says : Massage mode cycle speed is 64,67,70,73,76 Expression mode cycle speed is 38,42,46,59,54 Not sure if it’s correct But from experience when I tried the unimom ops cycle speed 100 was uncomfortable

[@NewLittleLife]

Which spectra do you have?

[@elleiramify]

​@@NewLittleLifeThis is what my Spectra Gold manual says as well, the gold plug in one. I wish the cycle speed went higher!

[@Badmaaishy]

@@NewLittleLifeI’m in Australia so Spectra Dual S from Australian store

[@user-ed4tl4fo3j]

Can i use spectra’s air tube on unimom?

[@yavishtamooloo5999]

Can you please compare the tommee tippee double electric pump to the spectra s1

[@kamapalmer3124]

Is there a way to check the unimom opera’s total hours?

[@lauracebollero3292]

is the spectra gold Hospital strength suction like the S2?

[@Snblm]

Have you tested the momcozy M5 and/or the Boon trove manual pump (apparent elvie curve dupe)?

[@sueyeonnam]

What does it mean by SG is multi user pump?

[@cierarhodes2473]

Does the unimom opera have some vibration like the spectra?

[@Nancy-rk9zp]

A battery is a big deal. Honestly, spectra should only have battery options at this point in comparison to all the other pumps out there with battery.

[@NewLittleLife]

AGREED!

[@caseymcinnally6640]

Do you have recommendations on where to get new flange inserts for the unimom? They only sell 21, 24, and 30.. need smaller sizes.

[@anre5180]

Looking for this answer also. Wife is a 17mm in Spectra

[@NewLittleLife]

If they don’t sell the right flange size, you’ll need to get an insert. www.amazon.com/shop/newlittlelifebyallison/list/3N8G6877TGLIP

[@JustMe-fy7lq]

Any recommendations for a site that offers unimom through insurance? Also, can you make a review comparing Cimilre (5+ is what I'm wondering most about) and Spectra (I guess Gold, since it's the dual motor option)? 🙏

[@PiscesSunLeoRising]

I used adapthealth to order the opera through insurance. Quick shipping and great service.

[@KelsiChristine]

Zomee makes unimom ♡

[@CoffeeSandwich]

Unimom is almost $1000 Canadian

[@NewLittleLife]

It’s definitely an expensive pump!
