<< I have a new premie mom using a Lactina. She is not the first mentioning
or asking about the release of sucking of the pump making a burping sound,
with some milk leakage but she is the first to describe that the milk
burped so much that it sprayed her in the face! I have seen it and heard
it myself with other moms; sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't
within a pumping session. >>
I would suggest the flange doesn't fit. If her nipple does not fit down in
the "throat" and just "bounces" around in the flange resulting in leaks and
sprays, she needs a different size or shaped flange. E-mail me privately if
you''d like some suggestions.
