Dear friends, 

Linda and Melinda discussed flange size for pumping. This made me wonder: could it be that a bigger flange does more of a massage job because it comes further away behind the nipple. Pulling more breast tissue into a bigger flange might be more of a mimic to the compression an baby does.

Warmly,
