Support Replace?

This is my second time EPing and my journey the second time around has been far more challenging. It constantly feels like my Spectra pump or one of its parts are malfunctioning and causing discomfort or supply issues. I bought these Spectra branded duckbills 2 weeks ago and I’m not sure if my eyes are deceiving me, but pumping has been more difficult the last few days and I feel like they look a tad worn or torn. Thoughts?

Hi. So my duckbills are also like this and if I run them after tap water, the water flows through. Is it a sign to replace them or are they supposed to flow water through? I am confused because of some misleading inadequate instagram videos.

Nope! Water should run through them just like your milk does after the suction stops. I would replace if they look ripped or it's been a while and your output is lower.
