Medela Breast Milk Collector x2

Milk collectors are devices designed to collect milk that may leak from the unused breast while you are breastfeeding the baby on the other side. They ensure that not a single drop of milk is wasted during breastfeeding. Medela breast pumps are specially designed with skin-friendly materials and are adapted to the body to provide comfort and discretion during use.

When to use milk collectors?
Milk collectors can be used during breastfeeding to collect milk leaks from unused breasts. Additionally, they can be used between breastfeeding sessions to avoid moisture stains, but it is important to remove them every two to three hours. Avoid using breast pumps at night as they can cause skin sensitivity. At night, you can opt for disposable breast protectors to absorb large losses of milk.

How to use Medela breast pumps:

• Before using the milk collectors, it is necessary to assemble the two parts: Flexible and soft silicone membrane: Place it over the outer shell, pressing all the way around.
• Use in a nursing bra: Once assembled, place the milk collector inside the bra, with the membrane opening centered over the nipple. Make sure the practical opening is facing up. Opting for a roomy nursing bra helps reduce pressure on your breasts.

Use collected breast milk
It is essential to ensure that only breast milk collected during breastfeeding is given to the baby. Discard any milk collected between sessions. When removing the milk collector, lean forward slightly and use the special transfer hole to transfer the milk to a sanitized container.

Cleaning Medela milk collectors

• Keeping milk collectors clean is crucial. Before first use and daily, disinfect milk collectors:
• Disinfection: Separate the pieces and place them in cold distilled water, adding a teaspoon of citric acid if you don't have distilled water. Boil for five minutes and let it dry.
• Cleaning after each use: Separate parts and wash with a mild cleaning solution. Rinse well with cold water and dry on a clean cloth. The outer shell and inner membrane are also dishwasher safe.

By following these guidelines, you will be able to get the most out of your Medela breast pumps, making your breastfeeding experience more comfortable and efficient.
