Executive summary about Medela Breast Pump by Amber Canaan

Medela is a trusted name in breast pumps. Things you'll need: Medela Pump in Style breast pump and accessory pack.

1.       Wash and sterilize each piece in the accessory pack, including valves, membranes, tubing and breast shields. Place all of the parts in a large pot of water. Bring to a boil, cover with the pot with a lid and boil for 20 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and carefully drain the hot water, being careful to avoid splashing or spilling water on yourself, which could cause a burn. Allow the parts to cool in the pot for 30 minutes, and then air-dry them on a clean surface for three hours or until completely dry.

2.     Snap the small white membranes onto the yellow valves. Attach the yellow valves onto the bottom of the breast shields by pushing them firmly--but not too tightly. Attach the bottles onto the bottom of the breast shields by twisting them on until snug. The breast shield, valve and bottle are now one piece with the valve inside of the bottle.

3.     Attach the tubing to the back of the breast shield by pressing the firm white end into the small hole on the back of the shield. Attach the other end of the tubing to the pump by pushing the tubing onto the port located on the front of the round diaphragm, underneath the vacuum regulator dial.

4.     Set the vacuum regulator to the lowest setting. Plug the AC adapter into the pump and then plug it into a wall outlet. 

Wash and sterilize the breast shields, valves, membranes and bottles daily and sterilize the tubing weekly.
