Once your milk starts flowing, you can adopt a slower rhythm by pressing the lowest suction

button (Fig. 10).

, This button lights up instead of the stimulation button.
Note: Do not worry if your milk does not flow immediately. Relax and continue pumping. The first few

times you use the breast pump, you may need to use a higher suction mode to get your milk flowing.

6

Depending on your own personal comfort, you may wish to use a higher suction mode that

provides deeper suction. You can return to a lower suction mode, or switch off the breast

pump whenever you like by pressing the appropriate button (Fig. 11).

Note: You do not need to use all suction modes, only use the modes that are comfortable for you.
Always switch off the breast pump before you remove the pump body from your breast.
Do not continue pumping for more than 5 minutes at a time if you do not succeed in expressing

any milk. Try to express at another time during the day. If the process becomes very

uncomfortable or painful, stop using the pump and consult your breastfeeding advisor.

7

On average, you need to pump for 10 minutes to express 60-125ml (2-4fl oz) of breast milk

from one breast. However, this is just an indication and varies from woman to woman.

Note: If you regularly express more than 125ml per session, you can use a 260ml/9fl oz Philips AVENT

bottle to prevent overfilling and spillage.

8

When you have finished expressing, switch off the breast pump and carefully remove the

pump body from your breast.

9

Unscrew the bottle from the pump body ready for feeding/storage. Clean the other used

parts of the breast pump according to the instructions in chapter ‘Cleaning and sterilising’.

10

Unplug the motor unit. For easy storage, wrap the silicone tube around the motor unit and

clip the cap onto the tube (Fig. 12).

Storing breast milk

Only store breast milk collected with a sterile pump.
Breast milk can be stored in the fridge (not in the door) for up to 48 hours. Expressed milk should

be refrigerated immediately. If you store milk in the fridge to add to during the day, only add milk

that has been expressed into a sterilised bottle or breast milk container.

Breast milk can be stored in the freezer for up to three months as long as it is kept in either

sterilised bottles fitted with a sterilised screw ring and sealing disc. Clearly label the bottle with the

date and time of expression and use older breast milk first.

If you intend to feed your baby with the expressed breast milk within 48 hours, you can store the

breast milk in the fridge in an assembled Philips AVENT bottle:

1

Unscrew the bottle and remove it from the pump body.

2

Assemble a sterilised teat and screw ring onto the bottle according to the separate

instructions provided with the bottle. Seal the teat with the dome cap.

3

Alternatively, insert a sterilised sealing disc into a sterilised screw ring and screw this onto

the bottle.
