-
Familiarize yourself with the breast pump and how to operate it before
you use it for the first time.
-
Choose a time when you are not in a rush and will not be interrupted.
-
A photograph of your baby can help encourage the 'let-down' reflex.
-
Warmth can also help: try to express after a bath or shower, or place a
warm cloth or Philips Avent Thermopad on the breast for a few minutes
before you start expressing.
-
You may find it easier to express while your baby is feeding from the
other breast, or immediately after a feed.
-
If expressing becomes painful, stop and consult your breastfeeding
advisor or healthcare professional.
1 Wash your hands thoroughly and make sure your breasts are clean.
2 Relax in a comfortable chair (you may wish to use cushions to support
your back). Make sure you have a glass of water nearby.
3 Press the assembled pump body against your breast. Make sure that your
nipple is centered, so that the cushion creates an airtight seal.
SCF334: The twin electric breast pump enables you to express milk from
both breasts at the same time. However, you can also use the appliance
to express from one breast in just the same way. Attach both assembled
pump bodies to the silicone tube and cap. We recommend to place the
cover over the other one.
4 Make sure that your nipple fits correctly in the cushion. See for correct
size of cushion, section „Find the best cushion for you".
5 Press the on/off button.
- The breast pump automatically starts up in stimulation mode and the
on/off button and the stimulation button light up.
- You begin to feel the suction on your breast.
6 Once your milk starts flowing, you can adopt a slower rhythm by
pressing the lowest suction button.
- This button lights up instead of the stimulation button.
