Choosing the right Breastshield size for your Medela Pump
Pumping should not hurt. For maximum comfort and pumping efficiency, find the correct breast shield sizes available to suit all women. This guide below is a starting point, to help you determine your optimal shield size based on your nipple diameter.
Step One: This can be difficult, but use a ruler or measuring tape, to get the diameter of your nipple at base (across the middle), do NOT include areola. Measure in mm. Please refer to diagram below.
Tip: Use a piece of string to go around the circumference of your nipple base. Then measure this against a ruler. Apply some maths : circumference divided by PIE (3.1417) will give you the diameter.
Step Two: Based on your diameter measurement, determine the Breastshield size based on the diagram below. For example, if your nipple size measures 16mm diameter, the recommended Breast Shield size is 21mm.
