I believe WIC will also provide you with a pump if you want to go that route.
BTW your insurance is now supposed to provide you with a pump.

A doctor's note is for medical reasons. Ask a rav about this - he may hold that for a baby it may not be as important because it is necessary for the child's health, you can't afford it, and it is hard to get the cy version.

if Cholov Yisroel milk is that important for you, you have to payup. My first kid was nursed for almost a full year then ended up on Nutramigen. my husband was so excited the second one was able to drink regular CY similac off the shelve that he had a huge smile going to the grocery till he saw the prices  we ended up switching him to powder based formula because I was reacting to his milk based..... there wasn't a CY powder option at that point.
