Using your silicone breast pump as a manual breast pump

slightly different positions
to find where it's most
comfortable to place the
pump on your breast.
1.
Attach your silicone breast pump as shown
(Page 4).
2.
Squeeze the pump base and release to gently
2
pump milk from your breast.
Once the bottle expands repeat (2) to
pump milk.
3.
If you need to stimulate milk flow, gently
3
squeeze the pump a few times or massage
your breast until your milk starts to flow.
4.
You may find it more comfortable to support
4
the pump as it fills with breast milk.
5.

bottle to feed or if storing use the storage
guidance on page 8.

When you want to stop or pause expressing
• When your milk is no
longer freely flowing,
remove the pump from
your breast.
• Decant your milk into a
clean, sterilised bottle or
pouch using the spout
as shown in the image
below:
If you want to take a break
or stop pumping, you can
place your silicone breast
pump on a clean dry surface.
To keep it upright, the
silicone pump has a suction
base that will attach to the
surface and prevent any
accidental spills.
Pull the tab on the base to
release the suction to allow
you to lift the silicone breast
pump up, or tilt it at
a 45° angle before lifting.
Don't pull your silicone
breast pump vertically from
a surface that it's stuck to
without releasing the suction
as you may spill your milk.
