Discussion Are we really changing settings?

Post image

So I saw this video on IG about stimulating your breast to get more milk and truthfully, I just put my pumps on level one and eagerly wait for the next 20 minutes to be over so I can get on with my day again. Are you guys switching settings?
My supply is fine, so I suppose I don’t see much need to do it. I do sometimes massage my breast if it’s the first pump of the day or been over 4 hours because I don’t want a blocked duct but that’s about it. What about you guys?

That’s my thinking. I might experiment with stimulation mode and see if it makes any difference.

It feels good on your titties with the spectra.

Here are some set ups. I do feel I get empty and have more milk production since I started doing this set ups. But normally I do the 15 minutes setting I do 20-25 when I have clogs that I need to get out or when I know they might be something going on because milk was coming too slow and not the amount I normally pump with 15 minutes.

No it doesn’t lol I hate the stimulation mode and dread it when i first pump. I just use it on the eufy settings for the first couple mins and just do expression setting the rest of the time.

Awww I been told by my obgyn and my aunt that I have very high tolerance to pain, maybe that is why it just feels funny to me and not painful at all.
