Sorry this is slightly off topic but does it not get uncomfortable not to pump? Or is it considered quite "late" now that this no longer happens?

Yes, when I was feeding my breasts would get incredibly heavy and uncomfortable if I didn't feed or pump regularly. I guess because she hasn't been doing either regularly the supply just isn't there. It's a bit chicken and egg. I'm not sure why she thinks having a different pump will make a difference though. She'd still need to actually do it.

I can only speak from my own experience but I am currently breastfeeding my baby and if I don’t feed or pump regularly than I know about it for sure! Sophie unfortunately has a problem with her milk supply and so she could spend all the money in the world on a breast pump and it wouldn’t make a difference.
I can completely understand that she’s willing to try anything, however she would of been better just getting one of those pumps to start with if she was struggling for time to pump.
 
Im no expert, but to boost my supply I was recommended to have a day of 'power pumping' and lots of skin to skin, as well as eating plenty of oats. The pump she has is hospital grade, so the elvie won't be any stronger. She has Dave at home, so this would help with making time to pump? I may have missed it (I dont make a habit of watching all their vlogs), even with tongue tie division, was he still not latching? My son had to have his division done twice as it reattached! 🙈

yeah I think the lip tie may cause issues with latching. I was lucky my daughter had tongue tie but even before we cut it (on day 3 rather than day 20 odd to be fair)but she had a good latch despite 100% tongue tie so once it was cut it was fine.
