Pat and all,
It seems I remember reading about a case like this on Lactnet once upon a
time. The suggestion I recall was to have the mother use the silicone
flexishield insert. I also wonder if switching to another company's pump
parts might help. Medela and Bailey Engineering seem to use a different type
of plastic.
As you are always reminding us, I trust you have also reviewed with her to
check all her soaps and creams---including what she may be using on the pump
parts.
Good Luck, what a challenge!
