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 = 22mm
20mm diameter base of nipple, add 4-6mm, nearest = 25mm
23mm diameter base of nipple, add 4-6mm, nearest = 29mm (this size is only available in our all-in-one kits at this stage)
What's Included
Full Kits Our Milkbar Suction Kits are compatible with our Milkbar Advanced Flow and Premium Care Breast Pumps.
* This kit is not compatible with our Milkbar Pure Freedom Pumps
Please note these kits are sold singularly - if you have a double pump you will need to purchase 2x kits to make a set.
Do I need anything else?
The original design kits have a traditional valve with membrane flap (pictured below). From time to time (depending on frequency of use and cleaning) these will need replacing to maintain optimal suction and are available to purchase here for $4.99.
Bought these to have as extras for the electric breast pump bundle as I found I was going through the other two lots quite quickly.
Would recommend to others.

Love it!
Suction is comfortable and not painful at all. I used another pump before this and I was in a lot of pain. I was almost going to quit pumping but thank god i switched to milkbar. I am able to pump for my baby boy without any pain and plan to pump for at least 6-8 months. Highly recommended!

Milkbar pump is a dream
I ummed and ahhed about whether to buy an electric pulp, but after using one at the hospital decided it might be for the best. A friend had purchased this pump and only had good things to say, and I only have good things to say too. Nice and compact, love that it’s wireless and it’s helped keep my milk supply up.
Was so excited for these, sadly that poring whole means soon as you bend over milk tips out everywhere, can only be worn upright position. I ended up buying another set somewhere else that was a sealed unit, meaning can be worn no stress all day. And am In love, just these ones have a design flaw.
I live in these tights. Had to buy a second pair in black after getting the navy ones. So comfy! Have been wearing these tights from about 14wks to 28 wks and they're great
The bra serves it purpose of being able to pump hands-free however as an overall bra it's very uncomfortable & the material and grooves in the bra are harsh on tender breasts & nipples.
These are so much better than the previous shorts I had from another brand. Love how it’s all one fabric and the fabric just forms to your body. Also the shorts don’t dig into my thigh. I’m 28 weeks pregnant and it helps give gentle support to my belly. Great colour too. I wear them under dresses to still have some support on my bump and it helps hide the popped out belly button
