"Just wanted to say thanks very much for the use of the Calypso breast pump, it's been fantastic. The pump is really simple to use, very portable and quiet. It has meant that I have been able to express milk for baby and her dad has been able to feed her so I can have a few hours rest or even nip out the shops by myself. I think it's a really good bonding experience for fathers to be able to feed their babies and at the same time give the mothers a much needed rest!
