Loni,
If mom is pumping in a room that is cool (maybe air conditioned) the body
temperature breast milk (warmer than the room) being pumped makes
condensation in the tubing.  If mom leaves the tubing (without the
bottles or flanges) attached to the pump when finished pumping and runs
the pump for a few minutes, the air from the pump will dry out the
tubing.  Mold in the tubing is REALLY hard to get out if it starts
growing.

Good luck,
Pat Bucknell, IBCLC
Avon Lake, Ohio (northeastern Ohio, right along Lake Erie, where I got
invited to go sailing yesterday on a beautiful warm breezy fall day.
Today it's windy, cool, and rainy)
