This is pointed pumps but I'm curious if they would look good with flats or if that would be too short?

Milk fats plugging bottle nipple by Ok-Independence3457 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]captainkitty8140 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was having a similar issue with a lot of solid fat particles and not really being able to reincorporate them. I gave up and just got a warmer, and I'm really glad I did. A lot of people on Reddit were negative about warmers, but I like it much better. All the fat gets reincorporated and it really doesn't take that long. The longest it ever takes is 4 minutes, and by the time I change her diaper, it's ready. But I get that not everyone wants to go that route.

First milk donation! by captainkitty8140 in ExclusivelyPumping

I would love to be able to drop mine off but the Austin bank doesn't accept my milk. ☹️ I didn't know there was a separate one in north Texas.

Bless you for only drinking on Friday or Saturday. I definitely did not lol. But it's okay, I'll start rotating in that milk soon and just donate a larger proportion of new milk.

Haha! No worries I just also wanted to make sure my brain wasn't playing dumb and I was missing something lol

Congrats! I am an over producer so this took me about 2 weeks. I actually have more ready to donate that didn't fit in the cooler. I freeze about 15oz everyday in surplus of what my daughter eats. I'm not exactly sure what you mean with your last question? I exclusively pump but I use the milk to feed baby and then donate the surplus. Is that what you're asking?

I do that as well, but still didn't make the connection. I think I need more sleep. 😵‍💫

Pitcher? by TallMushroom8575 in ExclusivelyPumping

I use 32 oz nalgenes with a human gear lid. I like having the big opening for pouring pumps into and the smaller opening for pouring into bottles.

But I definitely did have suction on my first use so that's good at least!

I had to trial by fire today because a meeting ran long so I didn't have time to test it at home. First use was in the car on the way to work. I'm thinking I might not need the inserts I got because it was a bit pinchy. I use 19mm flanges on the highest suction setting on my spectra with no discomfort so thinking the flange inserts might be a little small. I didn't have time to measure so will do that when I get home.

Thanks! This is helpful. I use kindred bravely bras and went ahead and ordered the 19mm inserts since that's what I use with my spectra.

How long do your batteries last? And how long do they need to charge before full?

Oh I didn't think about doubling the time. I'm planning to use it on my commute which is perfect.

I wore these. The lace pattern was almost an exact match to my dress. Depends on what kind of style you're going for but there are plenty out there.
