insurance driving me nuts!

So, trying to get a breast pump through my insurance. I can only go to certain medical supply places and the numbers they gave me are all places that don't carry breast pumps!! Grrrrrr!!!!  Really trying to getone before I go into labor, but at this rate, my baby will be 2 before I get one!

Im due in 28 days and have been told by my doctor to start the process of looking for one at 30 weeks, she said it would be a long process, and she wasn't kidding!

I actually have to have my baby and get a "prescriprion" from the doctor for the pump. They won't let you order it before the baby comes. So I have to deal with a newborn baby, my crazy 2yr old and try and order a pump. You aren't supposed to pump right away which I won't but it is going to suck to try and get it ordered with all the other chaos

I had to have my doctor make out a prescription for one for my insurance to pay for one.

Insurance having to cover breast pumps is very new, so they are still trying to avoid it

My insurance won't let me order the pump until 30 days before due date. Good luck
