Medela Women's Easy Expression Hands-Free Pumping Bustier Non-Wired (Pack of 1)

Product Information

These custom baby name onesies I found on Etsy are so adorable I ended up buying them in two different colors. The shop even has a really cute matching mommy and me set.

Solo™ Hands-free has been anatomically designed to fit comfortably to most breast and nipple shapes. The tunnel diameter on the Medela Hands-free Collection Cup is sized the same as the Medela PersonalFit Flex™ breast shields from all the pumps in the range. Therefore, with correct sizing and use of the Hands-free Collection Cup it should support a comfortable pumping experience. Anatomic design: designed to fit your breast shape to support effective milk expression and maximum comfort.

No. It is not possible to convert the Solo™ Hands-free into a double pump. If this is tried a significant loss in vacuum could occur impacting how much milk is able to be expressed during pumping sessions. Does my Solo™ Hands-free pump also work with the classic bottle pumping set? This first bra fit all three of my criteria. My favorite part about it was that I could completely customize the fit. There was velcro that helped me to make it as tight as I needed it to be as my size changed postpartum. A special bra is not required when using the Freestyle™ Hands-free collection cups. The cups are designed to fit into most nursing bras. Do you have control of suction in stimulation and expression?

Select the breast shield size by measuring the diameter of your nipple. It is best to select the breast shield size that is slightly larger than your nipple. The hands-free collection cups hold 150ml / 5oz of breast milk in each cup. How can I clean and dry the tubing? Here is a link to the nursing bra that I used with my pumping attachment. I loved that it was comfortable and had a great silky feel against my skin. Using the INITIATE program in the first few days of lactation has been shown to produce significantly more milk during the first 14 days compared to starting with standard pumping programs. According to research, you can pump up to 50% more milk within the first 14 days 3 after birth when double pumping with INITIATE and MAINTAIN as indicated. ​ Most breast pump shields have a 90° angle. The Freestyle™ Hands-free breast shields are designed with our research-based 105° angle technology to create a more natural fit and reduce pressure on the breast, resulting in better milk removal and more comfort.

A big problem with that is that the holes need to be small enough so the bra will stay tight against your chest.

The close emotional bond between mother and child during breastfeeding is something very special. If direct breastfeeding is (temporarily) not possible or you have difficulty breastfeeding, using a breast pump for support can be very helpful. ​ Freestyle™ Hands-free breast pump features in-bra collection cups for multi-tasking and comes with an internal rechargeable battery, so you don’t have to be plugged into a wall while using. Whether you choose to pump while sitting, walking around or tending to your baby Freestyle™ Hands-free allows you both options. However, the cups are not designed to be used while bending completely or during intense exercise as there is an opening (pouring spout) at the top of the cups through which milk could spill out. Do I need a special bra to be able to use the hands-free collection cups? If you find it more difficult to size with an inverted nipple/s or are still unsure whether the size, you are using is right for you please consult a lactation consultant or breastfeeding specialist in addition to the sizing guide above. Can I use the Solo™ Hands-free breast pump if I have small breast size?Yes. The Solo™ Hands-free pump does not shut off automatically when the milk collection cup is full. However, because of the Hands-free Collection Cup’s transparent design and side scale measurement indicator, it makes it easy to monitor how much has been collected and pause the pumping when the collection cup is full. Just continue your pumping session once the collection cup is emptied. Having 2 pumping bras is necessary if you pump every day because you will need to have one available to pump while you are washing and air drying the other bra.
