Tips for Using a Breastpump


Executive summary about electric breastpump by Heather Corley
If you are working women but like to feed your baby with your breast milk then you can use breastpumps. You can collect breast milk with the help of an electric breastpump and can store it in feeding bottles. Electric breastpumps are more efficient than manual pumps and it has double pumping capability. This will help you to store more milk. Tips for using a breastpump:
1. Lubricate the Breastpump Horns. Use a very small amount of lanolin cream to moisten the inside of the breastpump horns.
2. Pump Both Breasts At Once. Capitalize on that milk letdown by pumping both breasts at once, which increases the milk-making hormones in your body, possibly allowing you to pump more milk than you would when pumping each breast separately.
3. Keep Baby's Sight and Smell Close. If you're away from baby while using your breastpump, keep a picture of your baby with your breastpump, and take along a blanket that your baby has used.
4. Lean Forward When Using the Breastpump. Let gravity assist you as you pump your breast milk. Lean forward so that your milk flows easily into the breastpump horns and bottles. Choose a comfortable position and attach the machine to your breast.
5. Keep A Breastpump Schedule. The more regular you are about your breastpump schedule, the more milk you'll let down for the breastpump.
6. Select A Time. For collecting breast milk with the help of an electric breastpump you have to select a time at which there is sufficient storage of milk in the breast.
7. Connect It Properly. Get your breastpumping machine and connect it properly as per the directions.
