Flange Sizing Chit-Chat

In this video above you will learn of three ways to check for your proper flange size. Why is this important? Did you know with a proper flange fit you have the ability to express more milk, more comfortably?! It's true! Flange size has such an impact on the overall effectiveness (not to mention comfort) of your pumping sessions. If you're finding pumping hurts, well that's no bueno, check your nipple size and get happy nipples!

 

3 Ways to Measure Your Flange Size: 

 

Method #1 - Visual Aids

These are usually images that help you draw comparisons between what you see in the graphics and your own nipples. (Many pumps may come with one, or it's an easy Google search.) 

Method #2 - Printable Free Ruler!
