http://www.medela.com/NewFiles/breastpumps.html I found a place to rent mine through this website. It was a Sunday and the only person available to get me the pump asap was a La Leche League leader who lived near me. Many hospitals rent them though, but my hospital's lactation consultants were not there on a Sunday.

Good luck, they're worth the money.

Edited to add:

Actually, this link may be more direct for you...

Call the closest hospital to you. The chief lactation consultant might have a list of all pump rentals in your area.

Try the phone book--seriously! Look under breastfeeding or lactation consultants.

Depending on where you live I know they rent them at Pennsylvania Hospital. You can call their Lactation Center at 215-829-3664 (I think that's the right number, if not message me and I'll find it).

Check out this link...

http://www.momobile.org/breastfeeding/links_local.html

There is a lot of info there but there is also a link at the bottom to breastfeeding sources by county, click on the county you want and they have a section for breast pump sales and rentals.

Good Luck!
