Breastpumping Tips Breastpumps come in a variety of styles. It is important that breastpumps are safe, effective ana comfortable. Always read the manufacturer's instructions before using your pump. A healthy infant is far more effective at emptying the breast than any pump. Remember, breastfeeding is a learned process. Be patient. It may take some time before you are comfortable and proficient. Here are some basic tips to boost your breastpumping know-how: • Always wash your hands before breastpumping. • Center your nipple in the tunnel of the breastshield. • For relaxation purposes, drink water, juice or tea before or during pumping. • Start pumping on minimum vacuum setting, and gradually increase as needed. • If pumping is uncomfortable, decrease vacuum. • If nipple rubs on inside of breastshield, ask your nurse or rental station for a larger breastshield (PersonalFit-Breastshield) or call Medela at 1 -800-435-8316. Your ideal pumping time will depend on your baby's schedule. If you want to prepare a feeding, try pumping in the morning when milk is most plentiful. To maintain an adequate milk supply, frequent feedings at the breast and/or pumping are essential. Fatigue, illness, or decreased stimulation can decrease milk supply. As stimulation increases, however, milk production will increase. Finally, remember to take good care of yourself! Eat well, drink plenty of fluids and get lots of rest. 1 Health and Safety Information Please read this section before using your Medela breastpump. Cleaning and Sterilization Follow these cleaning instructions in the hospital or at home unless you are told otherwise by your physician or another medical professional.

To avoid damage during and immediately after sterilization: - Sterilize parts without applying external pressure to them. - Allow parts to cool before applying external pressure. Autoclaving the tubi ng may cause clouding or discoloration which will not affect kit performance. ! u 8 If gas sterilization is used, residual testing is recommended to determine the proper length of aeration. 2.
