Philips Avent Manual Breast Pump, 1 Count

With Philips Avent Manual Breast Pump, you can enjoy comfortable pumping wherever you go. It has natural motion technology inspired by the baby’s suckling action for a quick let-down. Philips Avent Manual Breast Pump stimulates the nipple to help start your milk flow fast. The easy manual operation of the pump allows you to pump the milk directly into the bottle. Further, you can store or feed the baby from the same container. Its soft silicone cushion adapts to fit the size and shape of the breast. It allows you to pump in an upright position without leaning forward. This breast pump also enables you to adjust the rhythm and vacuum easily.

• Philips Avent Manual Breast Pump comes with an innovative silicone flange that stimulates the nipple to help start your milk flow fast.
• The natural motion technology of the breast pump gently combines suction and nipple stimulation for quick milk flow.
• The one-size soft adapting silicone cushion gently flexes and adapts to fit your unique anatomy. It fits 99.98% of all nipple sizes (up to 30mm).
• The breast pump is small and lightweight, thus making it easier to store and carry and making pumping on the go effortless.
• It is a unique and portable breast pump ideal for mothers who need to gently pump their milk while away from home or before breastfeeding.
• Philips Avent Breast Pump allows you to choose the rhythm and suction based on your needs, comfort and milk flow.
• It has fewer parts. Hence it is easy to set up and clean.

• Check the label for usage instructions. 
• Clean and disinfect all parts before the first use and after each use.
• Do not use antibacterial or abrasive cleaning agents to clean the breast pump parts, which may cause damage.
• Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before you touch breast pump parts and breasts to prevent contamination. Avoid touching the inside of containers or lids.
• Press the assembled pump body against your breast. Make sure that your nipple is centred so that the cushion creates an airtight seal.
• Gently start to press down the handle until you feel the suction on your breast.
• Then allow the handle to return to its resting position. Repeat this step rapidly 5 or 6 times to initiate the ‘let-down’ reflex.
• When the milk starts flowing, adopt a slower rhythm by pressing down the handle and keeping it pressed down for a moment before you let it return to its resting position. Continue with this rhythm while your milk is flowing. If your hand becomes tired, try to use the other hand or pump from the other breast. 
• Continue pumping until you feel your breast is empty. 
• When you have finished expressing, carefully remove the breast pump from your breast and unscrew the bottle or storage cup from the pump body. Clean the other used parts of the breast pump.

• Disassemble, clean and disinfect all parts before you use the breast pump for the first time and after every use. 
• During disinfection with boiling water, prevent the bottle or other parts from touching the side of the pot. This can cause irreversible product deformation or damage.
• Always use the breast pump with the cushion.
• Never use the breast pump while you are pregnant, as pumping can induce labour.
• Do not allow children or pets to play with the breast pump parts, packaging materials or accessories.
• Inspect the breast pump for signs of damage before each use. Do not use the breast pump if it is damaged or does not work properly.
• Keep the breast pump out of direct sunlight, as prolonged exposure may cause discolouration.
• Store the breast pump and its accessories in a safe, clean and dry place. 

FAQ

Question: Can I share my breast pump with other mothers?

Answer: It is not advised to share your breast pump with others. For hygienic reasons, the breast pump is only intended for repeated use by a single user.

Question: Can I refrigerate the expressed milk?

Answer: Refrigerate or freeze expressed milk immediately and label it with the date and time, or keep it at room temperature for a maximum of 4 hours before you feed your baby. Never refreeze thawed breast milk to avoid a decrease in milk quality. Also, never add fresh breast milk to frozen breast milk to avoid a decrease in milk quality and unintended thawing of the frozen milk.

Question: I am experiencing pain while using the breast pump. What should I do?

Answer: Make sure your nipple is placed in the centre of the cushion. Press the handle down to a vacuum level that is comfortable for you. If the pain persists, please stop using the breast pump and consult your healthcare professional.
