ONCE YOU START PUMPING, YOU MAY NEED TO
REALIGN IF YOU...
• Experience excessive discomfort or pain that is not alleviated by pressing Willow
firmly against your breast or adjusting suction level
• Do not reach Expression phase within 5-7 minutes
• Experience low milk volume
• See air in the Milk Bag after pumping
TO REALIGN
• Pause Pump and break latch (reference Section 7B. PUMPING - Break Latch).
• Remove Pump from breast, keeping Flange side up to avoid spilling milk
not yet pumped into Milk Bag.
• Bend forward, center nipple in Flange Tunnel, press Pump to breast, sit up and
initiate latch by pressing Pump/Pause button to resume pumping (reference Section
7B. PUMPING - Initiate Latch).
• Do not lift or move breast while Pump is latching.
IMPORTANT:
If you do not press Pause before breaking latch, you will
introduce extra air into the Milk Bag.
