Hi mummies, would like to confirm whether my pump flange is too big for me? I'm using Spectra 28mm flange (default). I'm not sure whether i should get a 24mm. TIA!

Hi Grace, the suction is strong (maybe because i'm using spectra S1), i only pump to relieve so i pump for 3-5 mins each time. At times when i just want to try to empty my breasts, it doesnt do a very good job. Sometimes my breast seems like its emptied, but sometimes some lumps are still there. Half of my aereola gets sucked in as time goes by, i have been reading alot about choosing the right flange size but its really hard to determine when my pump experience was not that bad. I am just wondering whether a 24mm will do a better job.

It is worth the try for the 24mm if you can get it since you are used to your current pump.
