Operating the breast pump

Mimicking the baby´s rhythm (2-phase expression)

  • Babies use a “two-speed” sucking action. At first, they suck quickly, and then they switch to a slower, deeper sucking rhythm once milk starts to flow. The quicker sucking action stimulates the milk ejection reflex and triggers the milk flow; the slower sucking draws the milk out for the feeding phase.
  • The pump mimics the baby´s natural sucking rhythm by using a “two-speed” pumping action, the so called “2-Phase expression”.
  • The breast pump begins with a fast sucking action called the stimulation phase. When you see milk flow or feel milk ejection, you can then press the “Let-down” button to switch to the expression phase, which is slower than the previous one. If you do not press the Let-down button, the expression phase will automatically start after the pump has been running for one minute in the stimulation phase.

Buttons and status light

medela-Double-Electric-Breast-Pump- \(14\) Expressing your breast milk

CAUTION
In case of pain or insufficient milk expression

  • Do not hold the pump set by the bottle. This can lead to compression and blockage of the milk ducts and engorgement.
  • Do not try to express with vacuum that is too high and uncomfortable (painful). The pain, along with potential breast and nipple trauma, may decrease milk output.
  • Contact your healthcare professional or breastfeeding specialist if you can express only minimal or no milk or if expression is painful.

NOTICE
Make sure that the tubing is not kinked or pinched while pumping.

  1. Place the breast shield on the breast so that the nipple is properly centred in the tunnel.

  2. Press the On/Pause/Off button to start pumping.
    The stimulation phase begins and the status light is flashing.

  3. Adjust the vacuum with the Increase vacuum and Decrease vacuum  buttons to  find a comfortable level.

  4. As soon as your milk begins to flow, press the Let-down button
    The expression phase begins and the status light is on steadily.
    If the Let-down button is not pressed within one minute, the breast pump will automatically go to expression phase.

  5. Adjust the vacuum with the Increase vacuum and Decrease vacuum buttons to find your maximum comfort vacuum (see information below).
    Information

    • Maximum comfort vacuum is the highest vacuum setting where pumping still feels comfort-able. This is different for every mother.
    • Stimulation should be at a comfortable vacuum level, striving for a maximum level is not necessary here.
    • Reassess your maximum comfort vacuum throughout your pumping experience. It can change throughout each stage of lactation.
  6. To pause pumping refer to section 7.4 and to switch the pump off refer to section 7.5.
    The breast pump stops automatically after 30 minutes if there is no user interaction with the pump.

Pausing
In both stimulation and expression phase the breast pump can be paused.

This allows you to readjust yourself or your pump set, or attend to your surroundings.

  1. For pausing, press the On/Pause/Off button while the breast pump is running.
    The pumping operation stops and the status light is pulsing.

  2. To resume pumping, press the On/Pause/Off button again.

Information

  • If pumping is not resumed within two minutes, the breast pump turns off automatically.
  • If you need to pause for more than two minutes, it is recommended that you restart with stimulation phase.

Switching off
To switch the breast pump off press and hold the On/Pause/Off button for two seconds.

After pumping
Prepare the milk for storage as follows:

  1. Use the bottle stand to prevent the bottle from tipping over.
  2. Close the bottle with a lid.
