- If you are expressing milk for your baby to be given in hospital.

- If your breasts are engorged (painful or swollen): you can express a small amount of milk before

or between feeds to ease the pain and to help your baby latch on more easily.

- If you have sore or cracked nipples, you may wish to express your milk until they are healed.

- If you are separated from your baby and wish to continue to breastfeed when you are reunited,

you should express your milk regularly to stimulate your milk supply.

You need to nd the optimum times of the day to express your milk, for example just before or

after your baby’s rst feed in the morning when your breasts are full, or after a feed if your baby has

not emptied both breasts. If you have returned to work, you may need to express during a break.

Using a breast pump requires practice and it may take several attempts before you succeed.

Fortunately, the Philips AVENT electric breast pump is easy to assemble and use so you will soon

get used to expressing with it.

Tips

- Familiarise yourself with the breast pump and how to operate it before you use it for the rst

time.

- Choose a time when you are not in a rush and will not be interrupted.

- A photograph of your baby can help encourage the ‘let-down’ reex.

- Warmth can also help: try to express after a bath or shower, or place a warm cloth or Philips

AVENT Thermopad on the breast for a few minutes before you start expressing.

- You may nd it easier to express while your baby is feeding from the other breast, or

immediately after a feed.

- If expressing becomes painful, stop and consult your breastfeeding advisor or healthcare

professional.

Operating the breast pump

1 Wash your hands thoroughly and make sure your breasts are clean.

2 Relaxinacomfortablechair(youmaywishtousecushionstosupportyourback).Makesure

you have a glass of water nearby.

3 Press the assembled pump body against your breast. Make sure that your nipple is centered,

so that the massage cushion creates an airtight seal.

SCF334: The twin electric breast pump enables you to express milk from both breasts at the same

time. However, you can also use the appliance to express from one breast in just the same way.

4 Press the on/off button (Fig. 9).

, The breast pump automatically starts up in stimulation mode and the on/off button and the

stimulation button light up.

, You begin to feel the suction on your breast.

5 Onceyourmilkstartsowing,youcanadoptaslowerrhythmbypressingthelowestsuction

button (Fig. 10).

, This button lights up instead of the stimulation button.

Note: Do not worry if your milk does not ow immediately. Relax and continue pumping. The rst few

times you use the breast pump, you may need to use a higher suction mode to get your milk owing.

6 Depending on your own personal comfort, you may wish to use a higher suction mode that

provides deeper suction. You can return to a lower suction mode, or switch off the breast

pump whenever you like by pressing the appropriate button (Fig. 11).

Note: You do not need to use all suction modes, only use the modes that are comfortable for you.
