This video made me feel great about straight up throwing away the old Medela advance I bought at a thrift store this week (I bought it because it came with an awesome bag AND a milk cooler).
I have a symphony and the old connectors with the old yellow pieces and rubber stoppers. I JUST sanitized and am trying the new personal fit connectors, and I am not sure how I feel about them/the suction just yet. I would love a comparison of the medela connectors with the yellow piece vs the silicone duckbills vs the personalfit connectors
I am complicated an I think I need to see if we have it in our budget for me to join an get help because I really need to breast feed an pumping is a big part of life because of a few reasons medically an I think 🤔 going to people who truly study it all may help me a lot. I spend hours over the years researching and trying but financially I can’t afford to keep trying this time with this last baby #4
This is very interesting. I didn’t realize that mixing and matching different pump parts with different pumps could make that much of an affect on a pump’s performance. I actually used Lansinoh brand pump parts with all of my pumps, even though I didn’t own a Lansinoh pump. I just really liked the Lansinoh pump parts. They worked the best for me, and they felt very comfortable. But now I’m wondering if I would have gotten different results if I had actually used the original parts that came with my breast pumps. My main pump was the Medela Freestyle Flex.

Thank you so much for using an evidence based approach. This was super helpful!

My pump motor isn't strong, replacement parts available? Or possible repair options?😊
What about the reverse? New pump but old flange/bottle setup?

I’d love to chat about it! We have several payment plan options, we’ll make it work for you if we can!! calendly.com/d/d3c-8c2-jvj
The new Medela closed system unfortunately leaks.
Which one?

They make a really big different actually!
