4.2.2. Preparing for pumping
• Wash your hands with soap and your breasts and nipples with a warm washcloth and clean fresh water.
• Squeeze a little bit of milk out of each nipple to make sure the milk ducts are not clogged.
• Ensure all parts are clean before use.
• Before using, make sure that the pump is properly assembled and fully screwed onto the bottle.
• Sit comfortably and lean forward slightly. Place a glass of water within easy reach.
• Place the funnel firmly on your breast. Make sure no air escapes through
the side, otherwise no suction will develop.
• Support the breast with your hand from below and hold the funnel onto
your breast with your thumb and index finger (Fig. 19).
• Expressing milk without using the silicone inlay is more effective than with
the silicone inlay. So you may want to remove the inlay once you become
more comfortable with expressing.
4.2.3. Pumping
• Use your other hand for pumping.
• Hold the adaptor neck with your thumb and the handle with your remain-
ing fingers.
• Press and release the handle to operate the pump at a speed of approxi-
mately 60 times per minute. Only squeeze the handle as far as it remains
comfortable and adjust the speed to your personal preference (Fig. 20).
• We recommend a faster pump rhythm to stimulate milk flow. Once the
milk starts flowing, you can switch to a slower rhythm.
• Try to pump consistently to keep the milk flow established.
Expressing milk or stimulating does not come easily to everyone.
If you find it is less comfortable than you had hoped, ask your midwife or
other healthcare professional for advice.
4.3. Use in combination with the MAM Storage Solution (for electric or manual pumping)
• Remove the Easy Start base with its silicone valve and screw the Storage Solution on in its place. This
unit can now be screwed onto the pump. All sizes of Easy Start bottle can be used in this way (Fig. 21).
• Bring the pump to the breast and express. Please refer to the instructions for electric or manual pump-
ing.
• Unscrew the Storage Solution and close securely with the lid (Fig. 22).
• To label with the date and time of expression, use the special two-part area on the Storage Solution. A
pencil is best.
