Thank you for watching! Subscribe for more helpful videos. Happy Pumping!

[@haleysteele7607]

I actually have the Spectra S2 and neither of the funnels fit, I’ve tried them both. I don’t use a high vacuum level and still get too much areola in the funnel. Its a great pump I absolutely love the pump.

[@catieq5270]

I am a first time mom and our baby is 5 weeks old. I selected the Spectra 1 when it’s time to return to work and have to start pumping. This video was so informative and helpful. No one has ever told me that women have more than one let down.

[@SelitaEbabe86]

Omg I wish I would have watched this before I started using my pump! 😢 😢 I have been using the size 24 mm and I think I should have went up to the 28mm because now my right breast nipple has what looks like rug burn. I thought all the suction cups were the same size like you mentioned is a common issue. 😅😅😅😅You are a god send!!

[@chardonaye7488]

You’re actually supposed to get fitted or size yourself! These sizes are just standard so you can buy inserts to fit you! These hardly ever work without causing damage to your nips because the sizes are huge! It’s made to fit in inserts nobody nipples are actually this big.

[@sabrinawright3544]

This has by far been the most informative and helpful tutorial on how to use my spectra s2. I'm not ready to pump yet as baby still hasn't arrived, but I can't wait to use these tips. :) Thank you so much!

[@kpwsings]

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! Appreciate you! Using my pump for the first time and I feel so much more confident having you "here" coaching me along.

[@neon5513]

Thank you for this video, I decided to order this pump due to all the videos I’ve watched had great reviews on this pump. I am not due until August and will revisit this video once he is here. Felt very informative especially because my first pregnancy so felt clueless but this is very informative thank you!

[@jessicaorellana8784]

Thank you soooo much for this video I learned so much, I just picked up my Spectra S1 baby is 4 months old and I’ve been pumping wrong! I’m so thankful I found your video and got my Spectra! ❤

[@seantacleveland9203]

Was using my Spectra wrong, I’m so happy I found this video! Thank you!

[@ashleyjackson9392]

My 1st baby was 11 years ago, 2nd is due in November. So glad I found this video bc after all these years, I forgot exactly how to do all of these things. Very helpful and informative! Thank you so much! 😊 I feel a bit more prepared to start this new 2nd baby journey! ❤

[@sarahlou584]

I've 11 years between by twins and my girl who arranged July .. the twins adore her it's lovely

[@JazzClassof010]

I did a trial with my pump following the instructions for this video. I did the 2 min let down/massage mode then did about 8-10 min on 50 for sucks and 4 for strength of pull. I got about 3 oz. I’m nervous and excited to add pumping into our breastfeeding routine. Thanks for this video

[@PrenatalYini]

I’m glad you gave it a try. As you continue to play with the settings, you’ll find the best settings for YOU. Great job! :)

[@lauralewis9568]

Literally left the hospital yesterday and so glad you showed me your video. I would have been lost putting the pump together without it. Thank you!!

[@lakenyamack45]

Thank you so much for this video .. I was doing it all wrong & it was hurting . Now it’s way better than before

[@ashleybostelle7913]

This is the most helpful video I’ve seen so far! Thank you so much! I’m a soon to be mom that’s pretty scared of breast feeding but I want to do it very badly!

[@PrenatalYini]

I’m glad you’ve found my video helpful. The key components to breastfeeding success are prenatal education and the right postpartum support. You got this and congratulations! All the best to you. :)

[@oliviah1561]

I just started pumping yesterday and looking forward to seeing how much more I’ll get out by using the spectra this way! Thank you 😊

[@BriaAttiyah]

Omg I was doing this wrong the whole time. Thank you following your instructions. I was like omg I’m not getting any milk. Smh I should’ve been looked this up for 8 months I was doing it wrong.

[@PrenatalYini]

I’m glad you found it helpful.

[@bunniehoney]

Thank you for this video! Very informative and easy to follow.

[@JadeSmith-hr7wt]

What a great video, I’m due in 12 days, and believe it or not my kids will be 18 years apart. my breastfeeding journey the first time around wasn’t as successful as I would’ve liked… this video was so helpful. Thank you

[@Iamjawaynab]

Thank you so much for sharing, I was definitely having a hard time figuring it out.

[@hernaizhouse]

First time mom and just received this pump! Thank you

[@PrenatalYini]

Congratulations! I hope video was helpful. :)

[@yuliazi4776]

Thank you for the video. I do not have a microwave. So most likely will use boiling water method to sterilize the parts. So do I boil the water, let it cool off for a few mins and then immerse the parts or place them into the boiling water, if yes - for how long?

[@mfebten]

Hi. So i get confused, some moms tell me to just have baby latch, no pumping for the first 2 weeks. Others say keep pumping every 2 hrs. But im not really sure if baby is actually getting milk from latching. How do you know when baby is actually getting milk from breastfeeding? Im not sure if i see him actually swallow when he's latching.

[@SarahLetcher]

You can hear them swallow

[@journeywiththeflashes9732]

Thank you so much! This was very informative & helpful. I already see a difference in milk flow.

[@roxanetook242]

Thanks for sharing! Quick question, I'm an overproducer should I be pumping every 2-3 hrs like my baby would feed? And then stop after I get the amount he eats? Or do I still pump until there's no more milk? Also can I combine to pump a couple times a day instead of every 2-4 hrs? Thanks!

[@WhoAhh21]

Such a great video! Thank you for your knowledge and for sharing!

[@a.francis8302]

Thank you so much for this informative video. Following the instructions that's some with it surely isn't thorough enough. My first go at it a few days ago didn't go so well. I am hopeful that with this video my next try with the Spectra 2 will be successful. Again, thank you. 😊

[@celiameraz3406]

such a helpful video, i’m hoping i can pump for baby coming in november. im hoping i can get the spectra through my insurance

[@meenaljawalkar5836]

Thanks for the informative video! Should parts be sterilized after every use or once daily is enough?

[@monicalep4503]

Thank you for the tips! I definitely am using them!

[@hopefuljina]

I've been using 38 this whole time for pumping and never used the other modes. Next pumping session, I will try out what I learned today.

[@richettewalton5681]

This video was super helpful and very informative, thank you!

[@jamaica74618]

Very thorough! Thank You😁

[@LP2488]

Informative, clear and thorough video. Thank you! 🙏🏾

[@PrenatalYini]

Glad it was helpful!

[@nicoleclemons2903]

I just used your video to set up my pump and pump for first time!!! I hope I did it right. When do you stop for the second let down? I think I stopped flowing but I wasn’t positive. And then by time I did that mode I was at 23 minutes so I powered it off after the let down and hand expressed. I collected like 3 ounces total and stayed at the 38 cycle setting and level 5 for most of the session. Anything I should have done differently? My baby latches most every time but sometimes we have issues. I use the Haaka a lot and collect almost an ounce every time but I wanted to incorporate the pump in case my supply wasn’t good. No idea what I’m doing really. I don’t plan to pump more than once a day in the morning just to keep things going. Does that sound about right for someone who has a good supply already with feeding baby? Thank you for your help you are AWESOME!

[@PrenatalYini]

You’re doing GREAT! Continue on... check my video on how to use the Haakaa properly. All the best! Video link kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJqYma16pKakjNU

[@bibikhaironnesahashemi-ue6ci]

Cant I use this without plugging in to a receptacle? I mean if we have no private room to pump at work, is this still a good option or not? Will I be able to do it at work with charging it in advance?

[@prernachoudhury2426]

So glad i found this video.. i have been using it soooo wrong since last 2 months 😑

[@amandageraghty5961]

Hi, I accidentally washed my connecting tubes! Do I need to toss them and replace? I’ve allowed them to fully air dry.

[@elvistephen2329]

Hi i just started using specra s2 pump.when am pumping it takes more than 20 min to stop flowing.should i do another let down for increase flowing?

[@pampam40390]

This is a great instructional video! But after pumping, I started noticing my milk leaking down my flange - I only find out after the session is over and milk all over my bra 😭 help! I think the flange fits but unsure how to resolve this issue

[@lindsayerickson5127]

This was very educational. Thank you so much!

[@PrenatalYini]

Glad you found it helpful! :)

[@SelitaEbabe86]

If my breast size is close DDD is the 28mm the best size for me? Also double pumping seems to take away pressure from one side if using double or am I wrong?

[@Marykriz]

Breast size does not equate to nipple size. Ask a lactation consultant to help Measure.

[@ivanamarcinko6099]

Love your video! What do you recommend settings for new time mom here? I’m confused with the levels still and expression/mode.

[@PrenatalYini]

Try following the steps on the video. Pause the video as many times as you need to until you feel more confident doing it by yourself. All the best to you!

[@priyankaitkar5662]

Hi Yini, I have a month old baby, just checked your video and this is very helpful and you give all the required knowledge. I have been using just the high letdown setting till now (for a month now), now I know this and will follow this but I am really worried - I can still set this up for myself, right? Please help :/

[@PrenatalYini]

Yes, you can. Relaxing while you’re pumping helps with milk flow. All the best to you!

[@DunDeagh25]

Can all of the parts (with the exception of the tubes) be steralised in the dish washer?

[@eviesped]

I always use cycle 54. Is that wrong then? Why do you use lower? Is it better to have a bigger difference between stimulation and sucking? I don’t have very much milk at all!

[@somyaligupta7581]

Do we need to sterilize bottle after every wash in a day?

[@donYELLy]

Life saver. Thank you!

[@keylolo3484]

I appreciate this video, I see I have been using my pump incorrectly. I notice after pumping for a while I have to pull my skin back to make sure the milk is coming out of my.nipple. is that normal? Because of this I can't pump both at the same time and also because each of my breast requires a different flange size.

[@PrenatalYini]

Hi. If you have a double electric pump, you can pump both breasts at the same time even when using different flange sizes. If too much areola is going into the flange tunnel, the sizing is not ideal.

[@boujeebeauty5549]

What is am I double pumping how would I connect the other tube?

[@ghosthunters222]

Question!! Is tubing never washed??? Or just initially??

[@Angelcake1371]

Never wash it. Milk or any liquid should get to that part. But if it does try and get it dry and if you can’t get it dry without it having condensation then I would just replace that part

[@luvfitall]

Very helpful. Thank you.

[@reesie_reese242]

Thank you❤❤❤❤ 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 you've helped me loads

[@hiteshsood5362]

The white colour valve should be plugged on while pumps in use with the bottle connected at the bottom. Or shall it be taken off ? Confused we are. Please help.

[@PrenatalYini]

Valves should be connected when pumping for pump to work correctly. Hope this helps.

[@SabrinaGarrison-m2d]

My pump setting won’t go above 52 why? I just got it and I just realized it’s a double pump I thought it was only a single

[@smktmaran]

IS EACH OF THE SPARES/ PARTS AVAILABLE SEPERATELY ?

[@Angelcake1371]

I believe so

[@khuldinraye4149]

I started using spectra because of its gentle suction. Even on spectra i cant go beyond L01 vacuum, b cause i get pinching pain in my nipples. Im alrdy using 17mm insert after adjusting. The nipples do not rub on the side. And still i get the pain. I have not been able to pump more than 0-10ml. Ive played around with cycles. Ive used two to three letdowns, still not helping.

[@Angelcake1371]

For the pinching issue … which I was having. I used nipple butter from lansinoh. It also allowed me to be able to use the a bit higher setting than what I am use to without it.

[@housewifestyleph]

Hi, thanks for this video. Watching from Philippines🥰

[@RennaeAllDay]

Is it true that we need to pump 12 times a day to keep our supply or bring it in?

[@PrenatalYini]

The recommendation is minimum 8 times in a 24hr period.

[@ashwinisable1]

Thank you very much! My baby was premature and underweight at the time of birth. Latching had become difficult as she used to sleep due to which she was not getting sufficient milk and her weight was going down. Thus, we switch to formula. On the other hand my milk flow had gone down drastically. I am only able to pump few drops of milk using my spectra s2 pump. Now my baby is 3 months old and her weight has come to a normal range. Is there any way I can increase my milk flow? Would you suggest any supplements?

[@PrenatalYini]

With the right support, plan, and supplements you may increase milk production. A thorough medical history is needed to determine the best supplements for you. Every mom is different. Consider scheduling a consult with an IBCLC. Moringa is overall great at supporting lactation. amzn.to/3nJb9Wi

[@ashleyshore2753]

What happens if you don’t get another let down ?

[@ennove1535]

I can only tolerate a level 3 for right now, it still actually hurt a little... is that normal?

[@PrenatalYini]

Always pump to your comfort. Consider reaching out to a lactation consultant for individualized plan of care. More on how to breast pump kzbin.info/www/bejne/sGfWkpaXat5gZ9U

Can i use it as a double?

[@PrenatalYini]

Yes, it can be used as a single or double pump as explained in the video.

[@فوائدفوائد-خ6غ]

@@PrenatalYini What is the difference between s1 & s2? Bcz Some ads say that the s2 is single!! Thanks

[@PrenatalYini]

Have you watched the video? This is explained in the video.

[@فوائدفوائد-خ6غ]

@@PrenatalYini Sorry my mother language is not English can't understand voise just writing 😭

[@PrenatalYini]

The only difference between S1 (blue color) and S2 (pink color) is that S1 has a rechargeable battery making it more portable whereas S2 needs to be plugged in to an wall outlet (but there is a hack to make it portable too, find hack video in my breast pump playlist). Both pumps can be used for single or double pumping. Hope this helps.

[@namithahadimani3340]

I am a FTM, I exclusively breast pump due to latching problem. My baby is 48days old. I generally pump every 5-6 hours and I get minimum of 80ml from each breast, is it sufficient?? From past 2 days,I am trying to pump every 2-3 hours to increase my milk supply,but I am only getting 80-100ml in total from both the breasts. I use spectra S2 with massage mode for 2min in d beginning and switch to expression mode with 46cycle and level 11combo, increasing it to 54 cycle and level 11combo by the end of pumping. I pump for 30 minutes every time. From past 2 days, it’s very painful to pump even in low cycle of 38 and level 5. Am I doing it in right way??

[@PrenatalYini]

Thank you for sharing. Pumping should not be painful. Try pumping at a lower level and ensure you’re using the correct flange size for your needs. Watch my video on increasing milk supply (includes a section on pumping). kzbin.info/www/bejne/anqxi6eqnJ2nrc0

Can you convert this breast pump to pump into bags?

Yes! You can insert the bags inside the milk containers that come with your pump and screw them on like you would normally. After pumping, take the bags out and store following CDC guidelines. Hope this helps!

Hi! If you’ve tried it and works well for you; then yes, you can. :)

[@MrSpandana88]

I am a mother of 3 week old. I am trying to exclusively pump but I am not sure how will my body know to make more milk as my baby grows. Should we pump more time as the baby grows older or should I increase more pumping sessions ?

[@NChaitra]

@@MrSpandana88 you should pump often, every 3 hours atleast. It’s important for the first 12 weeks when your supply is still regulating. Once that’s done, you can pump 7 times a day and gradually decrease it too. Follow @pump_momma_pump on Instagram for more tips. She’s very good
