Can you change the breast shields? I have 27mm that I use with my pump in style.

My guess is yes - the best thing to do would be to call Medela directly and ask them. 1-800-435-8316

Yes. That is one of the advantages of this pump. I used the same 30mm breast shields with the Harmony as I do on my Freestyle and they fit the same way they do on the electric pump.
771288
Yes! I had bigger ones from my "pump in style" and a friend loaned me some "pumpin' pals" and they both fit fine.

I had to buy a smaller size too, they fit great with the pump. I got them from the same brand, I don't know about fitting shields from other brands. My pump got a hole in the rubber part that stretches to pump air. I got another entire pump, and the same thing happened. Finally I got a Medela electric, and it also came with the standard 24mm shields. I used my 21 ones without a problem.

Yes and no. The symphony and lactina require an adapter on the end of the tubing, whereas this does not. If you rent a symphony or lactina, all that you need to do is cut that end off the tubing, and it is good to use on this pump. The breast shields are the same.

Don't know. Check with your insurance. Many today are covering breast pumps

No. Wierd enough, Medela, the breastmilk-pumps specialists are selling horrible nipples.Either move to Calma which fits the Medela bottle, and is actually one of the best, if not the best, nipple available for breastmilk bottle-feeding.Or, switch to another bottle and nipple (you'll have to pass the milk from the pump's bottle to the other).I used the second solution, and moved to MAM's bottles and nipples. Didn't regret that decision.

yes, i actually use 27mm with this kit. I didn't have any problems with this kit at all & do recommend it to save on buying a new pump. I've been pumping successfully for 3 months now.

You don't need new connectors to change the shields! The new size will just pop right onto the plastic connector that you screw into the bottles.

I think so. I did not use that particular pump. But I have used the Medela bottles with the ameda pump as well as the ameda bottles. The bottles themselves I can use interchangeably. (I have used ameda tops on Medela bottles and nipples and vice versa with no problems) So my guess is yes it can. I hope that helps some.

I didn't have that particular brand of pumping bra but I used it with my homemade pumping bra( I just use a sports bra with holes cut in it) and it works. It is a little trickier to get the flange through the hole because it is attached to the valve piece, unlike the medela flanges that detach from the valve portion, but I was able to do it with a little bit of wiggling. If the hole on the bra is very small with no give it might be difficult, you might have to cut the holes larger or get a different hands free solution.

Hi- this purely yours ultra breast pump comes with sm 25.0, med 28.5, and lar 30.5 cm nipple fits.

Nope. It's just the three parts shown in the picture on the box. The part that connects to the breast shields, the silicone insert thing and the back piece that you screw the bottle onto. Nothing is adjustable.

Pumpin' Pals will work with pretty much ANY pump kit. If the flanges are removable then that's easy. If they aren't, you basically cram the flanges inside the existing ones. It looks weird, but it will work. Also, Pumpin' Pals come with three different sizes, what they call Medium, Large, and X-Large. MOST women will use a medium or large. I'm an RN and breastfeeding educator and I've met maybe one or two women in my 10+ year career that needed the X-Large.

Yes these bottles are adaptable with any of the medela pumps. I can't speak for any of the other brands but they do fit standard size nipple collars from like Gerber. I used them to pump from my pump in style pump and also to bottle feed from

I take the plastic sleeve off. I do not think you can screw on the pump securely with it on.

Yes, it can be used with Philips Avent Double Electric Comfort Breast Pump.

I remember reading on the PP website that they don't fit the Hygeia, but I seem to remember using them with my Enjoye anyway. Wasn't an issue. Of course, depending on the pump, you can either fit them directly into the connectors or into the shields (that are in the connectors) that come with the pump.

I am sorry that I did not see this question sooner. The one piece breastshield is not made in any other size that the 24mm (medium). You have two choices if you want a 21mm shield. The first option is to buy the Medela PersonalFit Breastshields in size 21mm. You will also need the PersonalFit Connectors to go with that, plus the yellow valves and white membranes. The second option is to buy the Medela breastshield inserts. They look like a mini breastshield and fit inside the 24 mm shield. Whichever shield you use, it should be comfortable to use and you should feel as though you are emptying. Remember that shile size is related to nipple size and not specifically breast size.

Yes, for the Pump in Style. I think Personal Fit refers to the fact that they offer various sizes for the part that goes over the breast (the cup part, sold separately), so you can get the best fit.
