Note: Pressing too hard can restrict milk flow in your breast and may break
the seal between the pump unit and the flange.

Using Your Breast Pump

To maximize your pumping results,
stimulate your let-down reflex by:
• Relaxing and thinking about your baby.
• Gently massaging your breasts, starting
nearest your ribs and working down
toward the nipple.
• Applying warm, moist compresses.
Continue until you can hand-express a
few drops of milk.
Now you should be ready to use your
pump.
For best results, hold the pump by the
flange A. Place the flange A gently
against your breast with your nipple cen-
tered in the flange tunnel. Press directly
against your breast to create a good seal.
If holding by the pump unit B, do not
support the weight of your breast with
the pump. Press the flange directly against
the breast; do not scoop breast into the
flange. This may cause the pump unit to
disconnect from the flange assembly and
not work properly.
