Using your Electronic Pump
as a Manual Breast Pump
Your Electronic Breast Pump can also be used as a manual pump. In this case, you
simply need to replace the control handle with the manual handle (p) and pump
cover (q) provided.
Assembling your Manual Breast Pump (see diagram F)
Ensure you have disassembled, washed and sterilised all the parts.
Follow steps 1-5 as before (see diagram D), then proceed to step 6 and 7
(see diagram F):
6. Position the forked end of the handle (p) under the diaphragm stem (b)
and push down gently on the handle until you hear it ‘click’ into place.
7. Click the pump cover (q) onto the pump body (d).
How to use your Manual Breast Pump (see diagram G)
1. Bring the assembled pump to your breast. Position the Let-down Massage
Cushion firmly onto your breast so as to create a perfect seal (ensure no
strand of hair or piece of clothing is trapped).
2. Once comfortable, gently squeeze the handle 5 or 6 times fairly quickly to
initiate let-down. When you see your milk beginning to flow, establish a
rhythm of pumping to meet your own comfort level.
Hints to help you succeed
Using a breast pump takes practice. You may need to make several attempts
before you succeed, but because the Single Electronic Breast Pump is so simple
and comfortable to use, you will soon get used to expressing milk.
1. Choose a quiet time when you’re not rushed and unlikely to be disturbed.
2. Having your baby or a photograph of your baby nearby can help
encourage your milk to flow.
3. Warmth and relaxation can help so you might like to try expressing after
a warm bath or shower.
4. Placing a warm cloth on your breasts for a few minutes before you start
pumping can also encourage your milk flow and soothe painful breasts.
5. Try expressing from one breast while your baby is feeding from the other,
or continue expressing just after a feed.
6. Repositioning the pump on your breast from time to time can help
stimulate your milk ducts.
7. Some women may prefer to use the pump without the Let-down Massage
Cushion. However, it has been shown that, in most cases, the massaging
effect of the petals flexing in and out around the areola stimulates the
let-down reflex and allows you to express more milk, faster.
8. To relieve engorgement, we recommend gentle, slow pumping to relieve
the pressure.
Practice with your pump to find the best pumping techniques for you. Don’t
worry if your milk doesn’t flow immediately, relax and continue pumping.
Do not continue pumping for more than 5 minutes at a time if NO result
is achieved. Try expressing at another time during the day.
