Congratulations!

My LA tips:

Squirt dish soapy water through the entire tubing unit, do not take it 
apart. Rinse twice, then blow air through it with the bulb syringe. That 
gets the water out, and reduces the chance you'll get mineral scale in 
there (the reason for the distilled water recommendation).

You can use a junior size bandaid on your breast and just slip the tube 
under it. I prefer to tape anything so that the tubing falls where the 
baby's  lower lip will catch it as she latches.

For wearing milk, I'd recommend only up to about 4 hours, which is 
"keeping time" in a hot room. Your body is definitely a hot room!

Enjoy!
