More things to add to the wear and tear or considering when to change parts? How high of suction are you using, how long are you pumping for each time, hand washing or using dishwasher to clean, does your baby use your tubing as a chew toy? How far postpartum are you because ni***es change size. You aren’t the same size from day 1 postpartum to 12 months postpartum. If this guide is overwhelming, pay more attention to the duckbills and valves which will need replaced the most often. Other than that? You can also pay attention to your output. If you’re still getting the same amount of milk when you pump and it doesn’t take any longer than normal, no need to spend money on something that isn’t needed. Pumping less or noticing it taking longer to get the same amount? Let’s check if anything is due to be replaced.

Note: Amazon does have options like Spectra brand and off brand options like Maymom but it is possible for the wrong item to be sent. This is a known issue for any product stored in their warehouses, not specific to this item or other pump parts.

We thought something was off when using the slightly different back flow protectors clients were coming into the office with, so Allison suggested testing it out!
Unfortunately this was the result. The new design (no longer clear pieces) has been arriving to families as part of their pump part replacement programs they signed up for with companies like Aeroflow.

Fungal cultures are easy, fast, and non-invasive.

Doctors are happy to blame thrush, tell you to boil every bottle, burp cloth, and pacifier, and give you a prescription instead of doing a culture and giving a referral to an IBCLC to rule out the most likely issues.

Ductal thrush is not a thing. A tongue that's white without other symptoms doesn't meet diagnostic criteria for thrush.

You deserve answers, not endless cycles of sterilizing and medication. Check our Mammary Care Highlight for more information on vasospasms!

Babies feed with their whole bodies.

We make sure they feel comfortable moving head to toe!
Can their neck open up or do they tuck their chin?
Can their shoulders drop or do they wear their shoulders like earrings?
Are the creases under their neck even or uneven?
Are the folds red or is everything nice and open?
Does the tongue move easily in all directions or does it look "stuck", white, or dimpled in the middle when it moves?

There's more to feeding well than gaining weight. Make sure your baby gets a head to toe feeding assessment that includes a FULL feeding and oral exam. Follow for more!

"When can I stop sterilizing bottles and pump parts?"

You never needed to 😬 Normal washing and drying after use with a dishwasher or by hand is all that's needed. You don't need a countertop bottle washer. You don't need a sterilizer. If you WANT those things, go nuts. But don't feel like they're needed to feed your baby.
