The Point of Using a Breast Pump

QA:The point of using a breast pump?

1.The flange should not be pressed tightly in order to prevent affecting the outflow of breast milk;it should be attached to the breast loosely to form negative pressure.

2.You’d better choose a suitable flange size before purchasing the Breast Pump.

The specific method:Measure the root of your nipple,that is the diameter of the nipple and areola,then choose the suitable diameter of breast pump flange,so as to pump more efficiently and reduce the edema.

If the diameter is too large,the areola will be sucked together,which will lead to the inability to squeeze;if it is too small,the friction is too large to cause papillary edema.

3.The suction must be appropriate.Forbid to tolerate large suction,otherwise it will cause expansion of mammary tube,eventually lead to the wall relaxation,the breast will be loose and sagging after breastfeeding period.
