Does this kit work with "hands free" breast pump bras. Specifically the Medela Easy Expression Bustier? If not, do you recommend a different one?

I personally haven't used one of the hands free bras but as far as I know it should work fine with one.

I don't use the hands free kit however it is exactly like the Medela can't I have purchased in the past.if the original Medela that works I would assume this one would also

Definitely!! The strap is adjustable and that shouldn't affect it because the strap is placed under your breast line :)

Yes but you'll need to purchase a pumping bra. I have one from Target (found near the pumps) by Medela I think that works pretty well.

I'm not sure because I use the Medela breast shields but I can't imagine that it wouldn't work. I do believe it works with all makes/models. Super comfortable and worth the investment!

Yes. Just check out YouTube. 3 m clear bra removal is all I searched and got multiple responses.

I believe they would work with the Medela Freestyle. PersonalFit Breastshields say they fit Medela breast pumps.

Born free sells an adapter that fits the wide neck bottle and screws into the bottom of most breast pumps. I've used the adapter with Medela and Ameda pumps. The only complaint on my end is the glass bottles can be heavy while your're pumping and they're not ideal to store milk; I used them only for non-freezing or I used the plastic bottles.

I have a heart rate monitor with a chest strap--it goes UNDER your boobs not over. I am large breasted too, it's not an issue.

Personally, I used the breastshields that came with the pump as a guide; if they fit snug, buy a size or 2 up. Here is an illustration from the Medela website: http://www.medelabreastfeedingus.com/assets/file/Choosing%20the%20right%20size%20breastshield%281%29.jpg

Look for Simple Wishes pumping bra online, great bra! Just be sure not to walk away from what doing (I like to computer surf while pumping) b/c you forget your attached to the pump! I did that a couple times, sometimes loosing my milk and practically breaking my pump. Better yet, do your pumping over a soft surface if possible, JIC.

Yes as I am a very big breasted woman myself, this product does in fact work on a large breasted woman but it's got a very weak milk suction so if ur milk production is a large amount I would suggest another pump as in the lansinoah or a medela double breast pump because the medela actual a has parts u can purchase to fit ur breast size and then some. The lansinoah was the first pump I ever used and it worked excellent plus it gives u tutorials and such.... I hope my answer helped u.

I would buy extra membranes. They are very thin and can break easily. Plus you probably need to replace them every few months. I have found if my production starts going down and I change the membranes, it goes back up. I would also get a good hands free pumping bra. Mine did not come with a nipple for the bottles, so you would need that to feed a baby, and you would need extra bottles for the baby. http://www.amazon.com/Medela-Spare-Membranes-Breatpumps-Pack/dp/B0001CTZ8K/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1393430032&sr=8-2&keywords=medela+membranes

I use both the Medela bottles and Dr. Browns on these. Very handy for pumping on the go - I can pump right into his bottle and not have to pour it from one to the other in the car. I've heard that other bottles also fit, but I haven't tried any other brands - just Dr. Browns.

Yes, I have been able to use Medela bottles. The fit seems to be slightly off, but not enough to really matter.

As far as I know, it works best when it is upright. I clip mine to my bra strap and never know it's there.
