Pumping Work Reviews

by LizzyTish80

Would love a half hour reminder (I.e. 2.5 hrs vs 2, 3, 4 etc). Would also like another reminder 15 minutes or so after the first. The political ads have to go which is why I didn’t give it the full 5 stars. I understand a free app is going to have ads, but seeing an ad for a political campaign puts a bad taste in my mouth regardless of what party I side with (which is neither). That said PumpingWork has really helped me keep track of my daily pumps and without it I wouldn’t be as diligent.

I love PumpingWork and its features. The only downside is that the ads are so aggressive. Interrupting use of PumpingWork is too much. I guess I'll just pay the small cost for PumpingWork , but other apps that use that model do a much better job because the ads are not so intrusive and frequent. It's very off-putting, which is a shame for such a well made app.

I really like PumpingWork because I dont have to use my notes app and my timer, this combines them into one. The outline is a little confusing to navigate and I can't really figure out how to use most of the features or I'll find something and can't ever get back to that menu or something. I wish it had a feature to put how much milk is already in the freezer though. It bank your ounces from when you get PumpingWork but most people probably don't start using this right away

I use it everyday very meticulously. Great for tracking everyday pump output. The reports are helpful and logs easy to read. It’s a bit tedious to use the drank feature. I don’t use it for tracking freezer stash, so this review does not include that. I would recommend they improve their exported data file layout to make it useable. The engineer in me would like to plot the data and analyze it further, but the data file is not friendly for analysis.

I exclusively pumped with both of my babies and used PumpingWork from day 1. With each baby, I tracked my pumping output with 3 or 4 apps, to see which one I liked better. I read reviews and most suggested a different app where you can input the first so many sessions before having to pay for PumpingWork , a couple friends recommended that one too, but I loved PumpingWork way more. Easy to use, great features, easy to navigate. I love that it tells you when you can stop pumping based on how much of a supply you have, you can mark whether it’s fresh, in the fridge or freezer, and easy to mark once it’s drank. And you can download all of it to an excel sheet! Seriously love it and plan on using it again with the next baby (in a couple years)!

Love this! I was looking for a simple app to log my pumping hours, output, etc. and came across this one. It has a timer so when I start pumping, I can just push “start” and when I’m done, push “finish” which makes it a lot easier than having to remember what time I started!

by Denomisg

I love the fact that PumpingWork is straight to the point. You press start and end the log the amount. When it’s 2 am and you’re delirious from sleep deprivation— this is what you need. So happy I have found this.

Absolutely love PumpingWork! I started using it the week my daughter turned 3 months old so I already had 200+ ounces in the freezer. It is so easy to figure out & keep track of when you last pumped & how much you’ve pumped. It’s encouraged me to try to ‘beat’ the highest record I’ve pumped in a day. It also really helps keep me on track the days I’m just super crazy busy. I’ve already told a bran new mom & my friend expecting that wants to breastfeed about PumpingWork. I tried several & this was the best one I could find. So happy I did. I also am an exclusive pumper & first time mom if that helps anyone reading these reviews! 🙂

I have babies in the NICU and need to log my pumping sessions. The hospital gave me some sheets to track my progress but PumpingWork is so much easier and more convenient. Way better than the medela app, after 50 logs they required payment. PumpingWork is better anyways, wish I had started with this one!!

by Brittany Poppe

PumpingWork is AMAZING! My baby is 3 weeks old and I have been exclusively pumping for him since before we even left the hospital. I love how PumpingWork keeps track of my ounces and tells me exactly how long it’s been since my last pump session. It makes it so much easier!

by Lisacyee

Easily tracks amount pumped, time taken, and eaten! Also gives helpful reminders when it is time to pump (customizable based on set times or hours from last pump). Tried other apps that did not work as well and had limited entries.

by EleanorNJ

I’ve been using Pumping Logs for 5 months. It’s a great free app. I’m able to log pumping sessions, freezer stash, and do some basic stats. I like that you have the option of using milliliters or ounces. The part where you set how much your baby is feeding (to estimate how much more you need to pump) is buggy, but that doesn’t really affect me.

by Therese0324

I’ve been slowly using more features of PumpingWork as I learn more about pumping. I can mark what my baby eats then what’s leftover for the day to know how much I have stashed. That’s been really helpful. I’m exclusively pumping for the first time, and I’ve had to learn a lot, very quickly. Pumping Work has made it much easier on me!

by Naty20202

Really good app, I just wish that I could change from ml to oz without having to cancel the pump log, to go to the settings, it should be able to do it in the same screen, not only from the settings, just like a button to switch when need it! But overall really good

I am a first time mom- my son was born 8 weeks premature, so he is in the NICU and still learning how to eat from a bottle/breast. I have been using PumpingWork to track my production so that I can make an inventory of what I have, notice any trends in my pumping, and keep track of how often/how much I produce. PumpingWork is marvelous! Minimal ads, easy to use, and wonderful to keep track of everything. Highly recommended!!!

by Bettagurl

Super simple to use, no signing in or registering needed. Just download and use. I love that you can select total amount or per each breast, and also choose ml or oz depending. It’s really helping me see what my supply is doing. I have a micro preemie in the nicu right now so pumping and getting enough to feed her is extremely important. PumpingWork makes it so easy to track my progress and where the milk is (fridge, freezer, or room temp).

by Becca-RN

I absolutely LOVE PumpingWork! I am exclusively pumping right now for my twins. They were delivered early and are in the NICU. PumpingWork is perfect for keeping track of everything pertaining to pumping! I love that I can change the units between mL and ounces. I love that I can pause a session and continue. I love that I can add a session in case I missed the start/end. I love the way it keeps track of every day, week, month etc. I could keep going! Highly recommend PumpingWork! It's fantastic!

updated:::
2 years later and it’s even better. There have been updates and I still use it each time I pump.

I downloaded thinking ok maybe I’ll use it. Started using it to try it out when I started pumping and holy cow do I love PumpingWork!! I tend to be forgetful so keeping track of how long it’s been and how much I’m making per pump is not my strong point. But having the counter tell
Me how long it’s been, and seeing the totals each day is not only helpful but encouraging! It’s nice to not question how much I’m making each day and to see the number increase.

by MeAngel12789

I started using PumpingWork when I already had a decent amount of freezer stash. Is very convinient that you can put the amount of old fleezed milk plus new one every pumping session and its gives you the whole total number of what you have. So I dont have to count manually at the end of of every week and add new one to old one. Everything in PumpingWork now!!! Sooo in love!!
This feature might be not easy to find ( go to home , then calculator on upper right corner, then current freezer stash eddit manually) and put you old freezer stash number and you are good to go!! Good luck with pumping))

by Ocfpopulardemand

PumpingWork has made my exclusive pumping journey so much easier! Being able to track timing, output, and compare with graphs and automatically calculated averages/mins/max has been really helpful to me as I try to maximize my pumping output. The ads to keep it free are not intrusive. Love using PumpingWork!

by Pickermansgirl1

I wish I had found this when I first started my freezer stash! I do wish there was a way to divide pumping sessions as I typically freeze half and feed half. I’m creating double entries to help track how much I pump but it throws the reporting off. Not sure how else to do it. I will gladly use this instead of an excel spreadsheet though! 🍼🍼💕💕

by Jmegurlie

I love the timer. I love the way it shows how many times you pump and how much you pump in one day! I wish it would let you split up your amounts for fridge, freezer, or fresh. Some of it I feed right away and some goes in the fridge, but it doesn’t let you split it up! Overall I’m very pleased with PumpingWork! Excellent for exclusively pumping mommas!

by Estreams

An amazing app! When I came home from the hospital I needed something to track all my pumping so I can continue to increase my milk production to report back to the hospital since my son is in NICU... PumpingWork really made it easy for me to track day or night no matter how exhausted I am!! So easy to use.....

by NICU Mom Mary

This made it very easy to track how much I was pumping for my NICU baby. I haven’t used to the fridge/freezer storage part yet due to everything being stored at the hospital but overall this has helped me keep on target for exclusively pumping.

by Kayee12

When you only need the simple things and no other extra features that will only make it complicated, this is your pumping app. Easy to use. Great for only logging and time your pumping.

by JouceEliz2020

When your trying to exclusively pump in the NICU and also make some time to spend with your peanut in between feeds and doctors rounds PumpingWork is a lifesaver...easily time yourself and keep track of how your stash incoming along! Love it!
