Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to Philips Avent! To fully benefit from the support
that Philips Avent offers, register your breast pump at
www.philips.com/welcome
.
The Philips Avent single/double electric breast pump Advanced is inspired by babies and their natural
suction movement. The soft silicone cushion stimulates the nipple with gentle massaging movements,
helping you to express milk comfortably and effectively. The combination of suction and nipple
stimulation triggers fast milk flow. The no-lean-forward design enables you to sit in a relaxed, upright
position while expressing.
Healthcare professionals and the World Health Organization recommend to exclusively feed children
with breast milk during the first six months of life and to continue giving them breast milk for two years
next to offering additional nutritious foods. This is because your breast milk is specially adapted to
your baby’s needs and helps to protect your baby against infection and allergies. To breastfeed
longer, you can express and store your milk so that your baby can still enjoy the benefits of it, even if
you cannot be there to provide it yourself. As the pump is compact, quiet and discrete to use, you can
take it with you anywhere, allowing you to express milk at your own convenience and to maintain your
milk supply.
If breastfeeding goes well, it is advisable (unless recommended otherwise by your healthcare
professional) to wait until your milk supply and breastfeeding schedule are established (normally at
least 2 to 4 weeks after giving birth) before you start expressing.
