Flange Inserts (15mm, 17mm, 19mm and 21mm options)

I bought the 15mm, 17mm and the 19mm. I used the nipple ruler and I realized I measured at 17mm and with that knowledge I knew I could go up or down 2mm. I tried the 17mm and I fell in love. I started seeing the milk fill my bottles and the sight of that brought me so much joy. I realized that am enough! Flange sizing is so important! I was so pumped that I took my ruler to my sister and she measured at 18 so I gave her my 19mm flanges. I'm so happy I found this! The pictures are from my first time using them. I also love how you can use them with all my pumps. I have a freemie independence, madela pump n style and the madela harmony.

I purchased these to have a second set with the collection cups, but I’ve been using them more with the 24mm plastic flanges that came with my pump. They’re comfortable and make it so I can have another set of flanges that would otherwise be too large for me.

Getting the right size flange increase comfort and production! Well worth it

I was experiencing a lot of nipple pain after pumping which made breastfeeding painful, so I would pump and just a vicious cycle to get the milk out. When I brought my flanges to my lactation consultant, she told me they were way to big. After measuring, with the nipple ruler from legendairy milk, I found out that I needed not only smaller inserts than the 21 mm that came with my pump, but I actually need a different size for each nipple. The inserts fit perfectly into my Unimom Minuet 24mm flanges, and when I am wearing a pumping bra, I don’t lose any suction. The inserts don’t wrap around the edge of the flange like other inserts, so they just stay snug to the breast. I went from getting 3-4 oz in a pump to 10-12 oz. I know those results aren’t typical, but it goes to show how important it is to have the right size when pumping. If you are on the fence, stop waiting because eliminating the pain is worth it. Promise.

Can’t say enough good things! I spent 6 months pumping thinking I had the right size until I started having pain. Measured and realized I needed smaller flanges. These were so easy to use and didn’t realize how much more comfortable pumping could be!
