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
remaining fingers.
• Press and release the handle to operate the pump at a speed of
approximately 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 pumping.
• 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.
5. Storing and warming breast milk
5.1. Storage
• Expressed breast milk can be stored either in the MAM Easy Start bottle or in the
Storage Solution.
• The Easy Start bottle with the expressed milk can be sealed either with the bottle
screw ring, teat and cap, or with the bottle screw ring and sealing disc (Fig. 23).
• Breast milk can be stored in the fridge in the Easy Start bottle or Storage Solution for
up to 24 hours.
• Breast milk can be kept in the Storage Solution in the freezer for 3 months. Please
note: the Easy Start bottle is not suitable for storing expressed milk in the freezer or
freezer compartment.
• Do not store breast milk in the door of the refrigerator. Instead, choose the coldest
part of your refrigerator (this is at the back of the glass shelf above the vegetable
compartment).
• It is recommended that breast milk is frozen in small portions of 50–120ml. Fill the
Storage Solution only up to the 120ml level mark for freezing. Never overfill.
• Use milk that has been stored the longest first.
• When transporting breast milk, it is important that the cooling chain is not interrupted.
5.2. Milk warming
• Defrost frozen milk in the fridge overnight, carefully in a water bath or with a bottle warmer that offers a
defrost setting.
• Do not put the milk in a microwave to heat: if you do, micronutrients and important immunological
