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 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 breast milk as the primary
source of nutrition during the first year of life, combined with solid food after the first 6 months. 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.
