Practical tips
8.1
General notes
• Prior to using your suction kit for the first time and after every usage, clean the
suction kit and assemble it as described in the respective operating instructions.
• Prior to expressing, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and wipe the breast with
a damp cloth.
• To avoid dry, sore or cracked nipples, do not use soap or alcohol as detergent.
• Prepare yourself for the expressing with ease. Take a comfortable and relaxed seat.
• Gently press the breast tube over the nipple for a tight contact.
• You can operate the mamivac ® LACTIVE breast pump either with one or two
suction kits. To save time, it is possible to express both breasts simultaneously
(double pumping).
• Start to express milk. Please observe the instructions for operating explained in Chapter 3.
• The pump has a stimulation mode to support milk production. You can also use your
free hand for an additional breast massage to support the flow of milk.
• Express from both breasts alternately, unless instructed otherwise by the physician.
• Since expressing times strongly depend on the individual mother, you are asked to
contact your midwife or breastfeeding assistant.
• As a rule of thumb, the following expressing times are recommended:
With one suction kit: Expressing scheme: Express first and second breast 5 minutes
each one after the other, followed by 3 minutes and 2 minutes each.
With two suction kits: Express both breasts simultaneously for 10 minutes ( double
pumping ). Have a look at the fill level of the bottle at the suction kit from time to
time and make sure it does not overflow.

Storing breast milk
Breast milk can be stored as follows:
• Freshly expressed milk at room temperature (16° to 29°C) 3-4 hours
• In the rear of the fridge (below 4°C) 3 days
• In the freezer (-18°C) 6 months
Fill the used bottles or containers to two thirds only and write down the fill date. Instead
of a bottle, you can also use our specially designed mamivac ® breast milk freezer bags
[REF 282100]. Do not defrost frozen breast milk in the microwave, but at room tempera-
ture. Place the bottle or bag in warm water as required. After defrosting, gently shake the
container or bag to mix the milk.
