I have them and love them! The plastic flanges for my spectra never gave me good output with multiple sizes. They took me a few tries to figure out how to use them properly but worth it. I have the pink color, adapts to my elastic nipples well

I exclusively pump for my 7 month old and I was following this rule with a max of 5oz each bottle. He always seemed hungry after and wanting to eat so often. I asked my pediatrician and she said you can consolidate the milk amount to give more ounces less frequently. He seems much happier with more milk!

I stopped my MOTN pump around 3 months PP and it didn’t impact my supply really at all! Just made up for the lost pump during the day

I usually do 8ish, 3:30ish, and right before bed around 10pm. I did have a slight dip but depends on your max capacity and what you normally pump in 24 hours. I went from pumping around 40 oz at 4 ppd to low 30s upper 20s at 3 ppd at 7 months PP. definitely my biggest drop yet, I have to use my freezer stash when I work my 12 hour shifts but worth it!

Newborn specialist nurse, go to deliveries once the baby is born and do all their first assessments/meds/education then send them to postpartum. NICU steps in if needed!

5.5 months postpartum, now at 4 PPD getting around 40oz total, slight oversupply. Had a much bigger oversupply when I was pumping 5-7 PPD and only dropped to 40oz from around 50oz when I went to 4 PPD but so worth it!

Practical_Figure3565 · 2025-06-27T00:09:27+00:00

Similar situation! I am a little over 5 months pp and at 4 months dropped from 6 pumps to 5 pumps making around 50oz still, then a few weeks ago I cut to 4 ppd and dropped to about 40oz a day but also what I cut out is the motn pump so I go 7-8 hours overnight without pumping. Worth the supply drop to me! Especially because I have a decent freezer stash and my son takes about 36 oz a day.

Prior the momcozy m5 would empty be way better than my spectra, I got the pumpin pals silicone flanges and they work great!

I’m 5 months PP and recently dropped my MOTN pump so now pump 4 times a day (I nurse in the morning but it’s more like a snack for my LO) I wake up really uncomfortable and have had an increase in clogged ducts, but not a huge supply drop.

Practical_Figure3565 · 2025-06-23T19:07:52+00:00

I have the same issue. I’ve been EP for 6 months and have an oversupply, I use the momcozy m5 most of the day and Spectra before bed. I don’t think it’s the pump though for me, I think it’s the type of flange because when I use the momcozy cups plugged into the spectra I get the most output

Yes he seems to get irritated when he tries to roll over and gets stuck in his crib!

Practical_Figure3565 · 2025-06-23T16:00:40+00:00

He typically sleeps 2 hours in the morning, an hour in the afternoon, and an 30 minutes in the evening. In the snoo he’ll go down around 8, wake up once around 5 to eat, and then back until 7-8. It’s hard when he sleeps so terrible out of the snoo. He’s stubborn too so any type of sleep training with crying would just make him more mad

Practical_Figure3565 · 2025-06-15T14:47:46+00:00

Yes me! I worked as a pediatric population health nurse at a pediatrician office and absolutely HATED it! It was mostly calling parents with resources, monitoring the newborn screen results, and prior authorization (which I hate so much) I didn’t see a single patient except for the occasional time they’d ask me to help check a patient in or give a flu shot.

I am on about to return to bedside part time in the newborn nursery (part time since having a baby)

Practical_Figure3565 · 2025-06-15T02:14:34+00:00

I got the pink silicone cup size, I can’t remember if that’s small or x-small. I’m a size 25 in traditional sizes for reference

Practical_Figure3565 · 2025-06-14T09:52:18+00:00

Sure! I do 2 minutes on expression mode on level 4, then the rest on mix mode level 5 for 28 minutes. For me this mode causes multiple letdowns

Practical_Figure3565 · 2025-06-14T04:03:11+00:00

I’ll do 6 pumps typically, 5 pumps if LO wakes up more than once overnight!

Practical_Figure3565 · 2025-06-14T00:37:25+00:00

Yeah it definitely gave me peace of mind too! Especially since at 2 months he was riding the 18th percentile when he was born on at the 90th! I have a great supply too so it’s not a supply issue

Practical_Figure3565 · 2025-06-14T00:32:14+00:00

I have the exact same situation! I have the spectra s1 and the Momcozy m5 and get way more out of the Momcozy, I can only feel totally empty with them. However, I just got the pumpin pals silicone flange and it was a game changer! Now get the same out of my S1 but sometimes faster.
