Using Your Breast Pump
1
• Place the flange to your breast centered
over the nipple.
• To pump, start with a fast, short pumping
motion to help stimulate your first milk
release, about 2 short pumps per second. As
milk starts to flow, transition into a slower,
longer pumping motion.
• You will notice that squeezing the handle
draws the milk; releasing the handle allows
the milk to collect in the bottle.
Note: You can hold the flange in place
with your opposite hand and/or massage
and compress your breast to encourage
milk flow while pumping.
Tip: If you are experiencing difficulty
expressing your first milk release, try
to stimulate your first letdown reflex
using these steps:
• Relax and think about your baby.
• Gently massage your breasts, starting
on the outside of your breast working
toward the nipple
• Apply warm, moist compresses;
continue until you can hand-express a
few drops of milk.
