The selection of breast pumps is very important for good use

For contemporary novice mothers, the breast pump is probably a necessary breastfeeding helper. And when you are ready to use this breastfeeding helper, there are some points for you to fully understand, do not take unnecessary detours. A little experience of using breast pump to share with mothers in need. How to choose a breast pump? When choosing a breast pump, you should first consider these:

Manual or electric

Manual breast pump is actually to use the hand to control the handle, rely on the hand to grasp the strength and speed, no vibration to simulate milk. The disadvantage is obviously to spend hands, and the effect of milk array is not particularly good. It's not suitable for a grass-cow mother with a broken hand like me, who can't stimulate a milk fight by squeezing her hand for ten minutes. However, compared with the electric breast pump, the advantages of manual are also obvious, that is, easy to carry, there is no power supply, electric body, vacuum catheter, etc., and the bag is placed in the bag. It is also very convenient when milking, and the scarf is covered, whether it is on the plane, the movie theater, and the outdoor can be squeezed.

Suitable for: cow mothers, emergency milking on business trips, mothers who are not convenient to milk alone at work, and freehand milking enthusiasts. (Watching Ma Yili's micro blog before, she likes to milk with her bare hands, and she milks 400ML at a time. I really admire it.)

Unilateral or bilateral

Regardless of the brand factor, the amount of milk sucked out by the bilateral breast pump is greater than the amount sucked by the unilateral breast pump twice. Because both sides can stimulate the nipple at the same time, giving greater stimulation of milk secretion, to achieve the effect of 1+1 > 2. Therefore, if the number of feeding is less, the mother who depends on the breast pump should try to choose the bilateral breast pump. Especially for full-time workers after work, bilateral breast pumps can greatly save time and produce more milk.

The right cup size

Be sure to choose the right breast pump horn for your cup size! Most of the split breast pumps will be equipped with different sizes of speakers for everyone to choose from, we should pay attention to see when buying, the horn cover just covers the areola is the most appropriate size, too much will lead to. For example, a small chest can choose 24mm, and a big chest girl can choose 30mm.
