This appointment is a MUST for moms who are exclusively pumping but also very important for the occasional pumpers. The majority of women are not a size 24, the standard flange size that comes with a pump. A properly sized flange can be a game changer to your breastfeeding/pumping journey. It will decrease the amount of pain you experience while pumping and can increase the amount of milk you pump.
During this consultation we will fit you for a proper sized flange and try on/use multiple different flange brands like Pumpin Pals flanges, Lacteck flanges, BeauGen inserts, Milkeaze hand free cups, Sleepy mommy adaptor, Maymom flange inserts. This is your chance to actually touch, feel and pump with the different products so we can find one that works for YOU!
The goal is to find the right equipment to support your breastfeeding journey. If you would like an appointment to discuss other breastfeeding issues, please book a standard lactation consultation here.
During this appointment our Lactation Consultant will:
- Fit you for a proper flange size
- Teach you how to:
- Use your pump and find out what settings work best for you.
- Change the settings throughout a pumping session.
- Maximise the amount of milk you get out per pumping session and over the course of your pumping journey.
