What to do with breast milk leaks during feedings

As you feed your baby, you may notice milk leaking from the other breast. This type of breast milk loss affects many mothers, some more than others! However, milk leaks are normal, especially during the first six weeks;1 this does not necessarily mean that you have too much milk. But if you think you may be oversupplied, read our expert advice for more information. In the meantime, the milk collection cups can help you.

What are breast milk collection cups?

The milk collection cups are placed on the nipple to collect breast milk leaks, so that not a drop of your milk is lost during feedings. Medela milk collection cups are made from materials suitable for your skin and shaped to your body, making them comfortable and discreet to wear.

When should milk collection cups be used?

You can use the milk collection cups during feeds to collect milk leaks as described above, and also between feeds to avoid moisture stains. You just have to remember to remove them every two to three hours and allow your breasts to air dry, as this prevents any excess moisture from damaging your nipples. And avoid using the milk collection cups in bed at night, as this can cause skin sensitivity. Instead, you can use the disposable nursing pads to absorb heavy milk leaks, or the Ultra thin disposable absorbent pads if the flow is more reduced.

How to use Medela milk collection cups

You must assemble the two parts of the milk collection cups before use. It is a simple task:

The soft and flexible silicone membrane is designed to be gentle on the skin. Place it on the outside of the cup, fixing it around it. After assembly, place the milk collection cup inside the bra, with the opening of the membrane centered over the nipple. Its practical opening should face upwards.

It is recommended to use a nursing bra with the milk collection cups. It usually has more room than a normal bra, which means that the cups put less pressure on the breasts.

How to use collected breast milk

You should only use breast milk collected during feedings to feed your baby. You should discard the milk collected between feedings. As you remove the milk collection cup, lean forward slightly. Then, use the cup's special pour hole to transfer the breast milk collected during feeding into a sanitized container, such as a breast milk bottle or storage bag. If you are not going to give this milk to your baby immediately, put the container directly in the fridge and use the milk within 24 hours.

How to clean Medela milk collection cups

It is important to keep nursing accessories clean, and this includes breast milk collection cups. Before first use, and once a day thereafter, sanitize the milk collection cups as follows:

Separate the pieces and place them in a small saucepan with cold distilled water. If you don't have distilled water, add a teaspoon of citric acid to tap water to prevent limescale from forming.Boil the water with the milk collection cups for five minutes.Carefully remove the water and allow the parts to dry on a clean cloth.

It is also important to clean the milk collection cups after each use. Separate the pieces and wash them with a mild detergent. Then rinse them well in cold water and let them dry on a clean cloth. Both the outer cup and the inner membrane are dishwasher safe, so you can use this cleaning method as well, or you can use a microwave bag.
