Returning to work after childbirth poses many challenges, especially balancing work and ensuring adequate breastfeeding for the baby. Thanks to the Spectra breast pump, many mothers have found relief from these worries. However, there are still concerns surrounding the use of the breast pump. What are the common issues encountered with using a breast pump and how can they be resolved?
Spacing Between Pumping Sessions Too Close and Inconsistent
Some mothers, eager to produce more milk for their babies, may pump continuously without proper intervals. However, this approach is not effective. Pumping sessions should be spaced apart by a certain period of time to allow for the milk supply to replenish.

Continuously pumping without sufficient milk or pumping insufficient milk while subjecting the breasts to multiple impacts can cause pain or inflammation. At this point, mothers need to establish a specific pumping schedule. Pumping sessions should be spaced at least 1.5-2 hours apart to allow the milk supply to replenish fully.
However, mothers should not worry too much about the timing of pumping milk, just relax and set a schedule. If you're too busy, you can wait a little longer, it's okay. A relaxed mindset helps pump more milk for your beloved child!
Painful pumping machine
The main reason for painful pumping is that mothers pump for too long, the suction force is too strong, the mother's nipples crack, or the funnel is not positioned correctly, leading to pain.
Remedies: When using the Spectra breast pump, mothers should adjust the suction force from the smallest and gradually increase, choosing the most suitable level instead of starting with a high level. Change sides constantly when pumping, do not pump one side continuously for too long.

Weak suction breast pump
If the Spectra breast pump is weak, you need to check the installation because this is a very strong and stable pump line. Only machine faults or installation issues cause weak suction. The first thing you should do is check for assembly errors, whether there are missing parts or any open gaps or valves?
Especially check if the funnel fits snugly against the mother's breast? When the funnel doesn't fit snugly, it won't create a perfect vacuum environment, affecting the quality of the machine, and the suction force will decrease significantly. If after checking and still unable to suction, mothers should call technical support for assistance.
Adjustment buttons on the breast pump may need to be changed
When pumping milk, many mothers don't know or refuse to read the instructions carefully so they just use one mode for pumping. However, almost all electric breast pumps provide instructions for using the Spectra breast pump. During the pumping process, if mothers feel the suction pressure is too strong or too weak, they should adjust the suction rhythm, speed, and force for better efficiency!

In other cases, if the mother's breast pump doesn't work no matter how much she adjusts, take it back to the store to request inspection and readjustment. If the machine has technical issues, mothers should also request the store to send it back to the manufacturer for warranty, replacement, or proper adjustment.
Above are some errors that Mytour points out when using the Spectra breast pump that mothers can refer to. Hopefully, mothers will find reasonable solutions to use the breast pump most effectively for their beloved child.
