Sizing is important when it comes to comfort and effectiveness during pumping. While we try to provide the most 'common' sizes with the breast pumps, sometimes a different size is required.
You are unable to centre your nipple i.e have it inside the tunnel without it touching the sides
You feel your nipple is uncomfortable and rubbing against the side of the nipple tunnel during pumping
Your nipple is unable to move freely with the pumping motion
Your nipple is being strongly compressed by the 3 phase motion to a feeling of discomfort or pinching
Signs you might need a smaller size:
An excessive amount of your areola is being drawn into the nipple tunnel
You experience a painful tugging feeling
Your nipple is reaching the end of the nipple tunnel while pumping
You can hear air moving or 'sucking' inside the nipple tunnel
You are not experiencing compression of the nipple with the 3 phase motion
Sizing Guidelines
We recommend having 2-4mm of space surrounding your entire nipple for optimal fit. You can find your size by measuring the diameter of the base of your nipple, then adding 4-6mm to find the nearest size, if between sizes, it is recommended to go for the larger size.
Examples:
15mm diameter base of nipple, add 4-6mm, nearest = 21mm
20mm diameter base of nipple, add 4-6mm, nearest = 25mm
23mm diameter base of nipple, add 4-6mm, nearest = 29mm
Size 21mm is better than 24mm... However, it is still not my perfect size. It would be great to have more size options... Mine are 15mm... So I need to use the parts of other brand to have a good output.
Much more comfortable than the pumps used at the hospitals, managed to get an extra 20mls by using the pump and having it cordless is such a bonus when pumping every 3 hours you can use on the go!
Generally our clothing is true to size and we recommend that you choose your usual size in our pieces. Specific fit notes will be in the description for each piece. If you have any questions at all regarding the sizing of a style, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
