What is an Elastic Nipple

What is an Elastic Nipple

An elastic nipple stretches and expands when nursing or pumping, sometimes touching the sides of the flange or filling it completely. This can cause friction or discomfort.

Tips for Using a Wearable Breast Pump with Elastic Nipples

✅ Measure Your Nipple Size – Use the sizing card included in your Momcozy pump package or a similar tool..

✅Choose the Right Flange – A slightly larger size can help prevent rubbing and over-stretching.

✅Adjust Suction Settings – Lower suction and switch to expression mode once milk starts flowing.

✅Reposition If Needed – Adjust the pump angle to keep your nipple centered.

✅Protect Your Nipples – Apply Momcozy nipple cream, lanolin or coconut oil to reduce friction.

✅Pause & Readjust – If uncomfortable, release flange and reposition.

✅Hand Express After Pumping – This can help fully empty your breasts.

Using a Wearable Breast Pump with Larger Nipples (Over 24mm)

🔹 Larger nipples may not fit properly, causing discomfort, poor suction, or leaks.

How to Fix It:

✅Use a Larger Flange – Try 27mm or 30mm to avoid pinching

✅Start with Low Suction – Increase gradually to prevent pain.

✅Align Properly – Center your nipple before pumping.
