pump kit to the motor unit.
Note: The breast pump will switch off automatically after 30 minutes in order to prevent overheating.
Using the breast pump when you have symptoms
of engorgement
Breast engorgement is the swelling of the breasts, often caused by increased milk production. It occurs
when the breasts become overly full and swollen, leading to discomfort. Symptoms may include hard, tight,
or warm breasts, difficulty with milk ejection reflex, and redness, tenderness, or pain.
To reduce the risk of overstimulation and engorgement, follow these instructions:
-
Gently massage the breasts before and during pumping to encourage milk flow.
-
Use the lowest effective suction level and avoid prolonged pumping sessions. High suction levels or
extended sessions may cause discomfort or potential breast tissue damage.
-
Pump only the amount that your baby needs.
If you experience symptoms of engorgement, consider the following measures:
-
Pumping gently for a short duration can help relieve discomfort. Pump just enough to relieve the
discomfort as excessive pumping may worsen engorgement.
-
If discomfort persists or if you experience redness, warmth, fever, or flu-like symptoms, consult a
healthcare professional.
Warning: Overstimulation of the breasts through high suction levels or prolonged
pumping may lead to discomfort or potential breast tissue damage.
Warning: Excessive or prolonged pumping may increase breast swelling, tenderness, or
worsen engorgement. If you experience these symptoms, stop pumping and consult a
healthcare professional.
