Spectra S2 Plus Hospital Grade Double Electric Breast Pump, Pink

Product Information

First, the bottles aren't that great - the bottom of one bulged out after I did the initial sterilization of everything (in boiling water, for 5 minutes, as per the instructions), so it won't stand up any more.

In all seriousness though, we will go over all of the important Spectra S1 and S2 settings and get you ready to use your Spectra like you’ve known her forever! Relaxation: Stress can interfere with milk production. Try to create a comfortable, stress-free environment when you pump. You can listen to music, watch a show, or practice deep breathing techniques. Spectra’s YouTube Channel – This is an excellent source for educational videos on correctly assembling, using, and cleaning your Spectra breast pump. Although you can hand express breastmilk, most mums who express often use a breast pump to collect the milk. It can help increase your milk supply too, and means your partner can share the feeding. Just bear in mind that it’s advised you don’t offer your newborn a bottle before they're six weeks old. On the other hand, the Spectra S2 needs to be plugged into an electrical outlet, making it less portable but potentially ideal for those who primarily pump at home or in a stable environment.Both pumps are designed with the same high-quality standards and deliver excellent performance to meet your breastfeeding needs. Best Spectra Pump Settings for both S1 and S2 Speaking of long pumping sessions - those are no more. The speCtra s2 empties me in half the time - and we all know how important time is with little ones running around! Other nice features you should know about: this pump has a nightlight with two brightness settings, and it has an integrated bottle stand. I don't really need the nightlight, but if you pump at night in the baby's room, I bet it would be super handy - the light is embedded in the underside of the handle so that it shines down on and illuminates the display and the control buttons. It's a subtle light, just bright enough that you can see what you're doing in a dark room. The pump has stand for one bottle in the top of it, and it holds the bottle snugly enough. It also comes with a bottle stand you can attach to the bottom of the other bottle if you're double pumping. Would you like to know how to increase milk supply with your Spectra? Here is a popular Spectra setting many moms use to pump more milk. Adjustable Suction: Increase or decrease the suction level to find your comfort zone. Start with a low level and gradually increase it until you find a comfortable yet efficient level.

For mums who want a great pump at a super low price, don’t need portability and have no problem accessing a power outlet, the Spectra S2+ is the ideal Spectra breast pump. It shares all the fantastic features of the S1+ except for the inbuilt battery. Everything else—the sophisticated options, features, 2 levels of lighting etc.—are exactly alike. Oh, and we super love the pink colour too! What parents think Double Pumping: Double pumping (pumping from both breasts simultaneously) can save time and stimulate more excellent milk production. Frequent Pumping: The more frequently you express milk, the more signals your body receives to produce milk. Try to mimic a feeding schedule similar to your baby’s, even if that means pumping every 2-3 hours. A few more things to love: the big power and advanced settings. With the right settings, you can finish double pumping in a record time of 15 minutes. Pumping late at night is no trouble either. The night light and bottle holder ensure no clumsy spills, only comfort and a good night’s sleep. The Spectra S1+ is excellent for working mums. With a full charge, it runs for 4.5 hours.

Difference Between Spectra S1 and S2

Keeping your Spectra breast pump clean is crucial for maintaining good hygiene and ensuring your baby’s health. Here’s how to clean your pump:

The most important thing to remember when choosing settings on your Spectra to pump for your newborn – is to start out slow and gentle and work your way up. Start on expression mode with a lower speed between 38 and 54. Increase vacuum level to a comfortable level up to 12. Try cycle level 38 and vacuum level 5 to start. Even so, if you are desperate to relieve some pressure, try pumping on massage mode at cycle level 70 / vacuum level 1 and increase the vacuum from there. A breast pump’s efficiency and effectiveness largely depend on its parts. Let’s explore each part, its functions, and how they fit together in your Spectra breast pump:
