@Kaylynn Is your flange size correct? if you’re pulling too much tissue in that can cause pain, apparently most people need much smaller flanges than they typically provide. I ordered 19mm ones off amazon!
@Felix I've tried multiple different flange sizes and I was still in pain. Even tried lubricants and silicone. You name it
@Felix I use 20mm it’s the only one that fits me others were hurting me or two small. I pump about 2 to 4 times
I only pump for 5 mins and do it on vacuum 4 for the first minute then go up to 7-8 and it works really well for me I usually get 4-5 ounces I cannot sit on the pump for more than 10 minutes I’m so impatient I cannot imagine 30 mins!!?
@Autumn what’s vacuum? Yea I pump for 30mins 3 to 4x depending if my baby wakes up I’ll end it to feed her. I usually turn up the level depending if the pressure hurts from pull on my nipple. Makes the milk comes out faster
Are people really using 6-10 vacuum!? I can't go more than 3 without having pain
