Troubleshooting
Air escaping
or whistling
Some audible air is normal as air
movement is part of suction control.
Review “Inserting the Tubing”
section to ensure that you are using your
tubing appropriately and that your tubing is
inserted into the ports on
membrane caps firmly.
ISSUE
SOLUTION
Backflow
Protector/
Membrane
Cap opening/
clicking
Separate silicone membrane from
membrane cap and valve base and
ensure that all parts are clean and dry.
Examine membrane for damage or warping
and replace as needed. Reattach the
membrane to the valve base and confirm
that seal is tight before closing with
membrane cap.
Nipple Pain or
Discomfort
Seek advice from a Lactation Consultant
as comfort can be key to sustaining a
breastfeeding journey.
Ensure you are using well-fitted breast
shields for both breasts. Lubricate breast
shields with a thin layer of coconut oil if
necessary.
DO NOT continue using your Pump-A-Collect Cups if you
experience pain or discomfort while pumping.
