How To Use Wearable Breast Pumps Properly
There are a few different types of wearable breast pumps available. We will discuss Freemie Liberty, Willow and AutoTime. Each pump has its own advantages and disadvantages. If you are unsure of which to choose, read on to learn how to use each one properly. Hopefully this information will make your next pumping experience a smooth one. You can also read our detailed review of each model for more information.
Freemie Liberty
If you are looking for a wearable breast pump that’s both affordable and portable, consider the Freemie Liberty. You’ll love its cord-free design and custom controls. But, you’ll also appreciate how easy it is to charge the battery. If you’re worried that it’s too expensive, you can try a different bra or replace the duckbills. Here’s how you can use the Freemie Liberty!
First, choose the right size. The Freemie Liberty comes with two different flange sizes: 25mm and 28mm. You can also purchase silicone inserts separately. However, you should keep in mind that Freemie Liberty cups do not work with all pumps, so if you want to use it with a different pump brand, you can find compatible silicone inserts separately.
Next, choose a setting that is right for your body type. This is important because breast pumps that come with free shipping are not suitable for all women. If you find that a certain pump has too much pressure, you can try fine-tuning the speed and vacuum levels to make it work with your body type. The pump can be used at work to still produce milk. You can also take it with you when you go on a vacation.
Elvie
If you’re ready to make breast feeding easier and more comfortable, the Elvie wearable breast pump might be the perfect choice. The wireless, app-connected Elvie breast pump has all the features of a traditional pump but is hands-free and quiet. The Elvie pump can be recharged and comes with four bottles and two hubs. Designed to fit into your bra, it looks more feminine and well-endowed than ever. With its small lights and quiet milk-expressing noise, you won’t even realize you’re wearing a pump.
The Elvie wearable breast pump comes with two nipple shields – one for 24mm and one for 28mm – and an additional 21mm shield, sold separately. They can be washed in the dishwasher. The Elvie Wearable Breast Pump can be purchased with two additional shields for $30. You can choose which pump is best for you based on how much milk your breasts produce.
Willow
The Willow breast pump is one among many cordless, hands-free options for breastfeeding. It allows moms to breastfeed while they do other activities. Many moms like the hands-free operation of the Willow. They can multitask while pumping and can even pump while doing other tasks at home, which is helpful for parents who work outside the home. The Willow has been reported to increase milk production by mothers. These are some tips for getting the most out the Willow, regardless of whether you plan on using it for breastfeeding.
To begin using your wearable breast pump, insert your Flange Tunnel into the Willow. Your nipple should be flush to the flange tunnel. If it is not, your Flange is too small. Turn your pump until it spits out a gulp. To make sure you’ve positioned the pump correctly, you can refer to the Willow’s user manual for instructions.
AutoTime
When you’re breastfeeding your baby, the AutoTime feature of wearable breast pumps is a great option. The pump is small and virtually invisible, so you don’t have to worry about disturbing your baby’s rest. With nine pumping and massage modes, you can find a perfect fit for you. It also has a memory feature that will save your preferences so you can use them again. There are also two size options for the handpiece – one for large or small breasts. And because it’s quiet, you don’t have to worry about disturbing anyone else in the room.
Another great feature of wearable breast pumps is that they don’t require an AC adapter that plugs into the wall. They don’t require batteries so they can be worn discreetly in public. They can also be used to increase your milk supply without being near the baby. One thing to note, though, is that wearable breast pumps are more expensive than regular pumps. There are many benefits that make them worthwhile.
