[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I only pump 1x per day but had been getting a bad output for about a week, bought new duck bill valves and wow - it’s back up! I had to change them at 3 months and now six months pp and it’s made a big difference. Just thought I would throw that out there because I don’t think I ever changed them with my first. [/quote] Thanks. Why do they make a difference? How does it work? [/quote] You need them to generate suction. if the bills don't close properly you won't get as much suction. (Tried to pump without them twice and wondered how in the world I could tolerate the maximum suction (level 12) strength of my pump when the day before level 3 was causing me pain and still get no milk.... Post partum brain fail!)[/quote]
