PAGE 17Finding Your Ideal Bra FitCORRECT NIPPLE POSITION & FLANGE SIZINGEnsure nipple is centered in the Breast Flange and not bent or pinched o. If the tip of the nipple hurts while expressing, check that the nipple is in the center of the Flange.CORRECT POSITIONINCORRECT POSITIONFINDING THE IDEAL BRA FIT FOR YOUBra fit is critical to the proper use of this device because your bra must do the job that your hands would be required to do with a traditional pump.1. Before choosing a bra, pump by holding the Freemie Cups in place with your hands. Consider how much pressure you normally apply against your breasts to pump and observe the optimal position and orientation of the Cups on each of your breasts. Most moms are not perfectly symmetrical, and improper positioning or pressure on one or both breasts may result in low output. It is important to practice and experiment with different bras to figure out how to make the Cups work well and effectively for you. The pressure needs to be consistent throughout your pump session such that no gaps occur. Be aware that the pressure needed may be different when your breasts are full versus when they are emptying. A sports bra works well for many women.2. Be sure your bra keeps the Freemie Cups in an upright position and does not allow the devices to slip around, sag downward, or tilt off to the side during use as a loss of suction may occur.3. Make sure you achieve a good consistent seal between the Breast Flanges and your skin.4. Make sure the Breast Flange opening is centered over the nipple when placed inside your bra.

After the hands-free and fully concealed pumping experience. After a few days of use, review the instructions for bra and Breast a few days of use, review the instructions for bra and Breast Flange fit to evaluate any needed adjustments. Consider what Flange fit to evaluate any needed adjustments.

30mmDime17.91 mmHalf Dollar30.61 mmQuarter24.26 mmNipple BaseNippleAreolaMeasurePAGE 19Finding Your Best Flange FitFinding Your Best Flange FitFinding the best Breast Flange fit cannot simply be done by measuring your nipples because some nipples stretch more than others under suction. You can estimate your size, but some trial and error may be needed for you to optimize your comfort and milk output. Experiment to find the right fit and keep in mind: • You may need a dierent size than the Flanges provided. • You may need a dierent size for each nipple because no one is perfectly symmetrical. • You may prefer higher suction, making Flange comfort crucial. • Your nipple may expand in diameter and length while pumping and may change over time, so keep all of your sizes.Flange is too small for the nipple to move freely in and out of Flange. May cause rubbing or chafing.Comfort is key! It may take a few tries to find what works. The Breast Flange size is measured across the opening that your nipple fits into.Flange is too big allowing too much breast and areola tissue to be drawn into Flange. May cause bruising.Flange is correct size when the nipple moves in and out of the Flange freely. Choosing Another Size Use a ruler or coin diameters to estimate your erect nipple base size. Choose the nearest size Flanges or Fitmie inserts that are slightly larger than your nipples.Internal Diameter is measured across the opening.SlimFit Fitmie soft inserts for pumping comfort are available in sizes 15mm – 28mm and sold separately at www.freemie.com.Need more milk capacity or a deeper Flange? Try SlimFit6 (6 oz.) or Standard (8 oz.) Freemie Cups.

P226 (A)Please note that as of February 12, 2021, the US CDC has updated their recommendations for storage of Breast Milk. Please see below. Refer to the CDC website for current guidelines. https://www.cdc.gov/breastfeeding/recommendations/handling_breastmilk.htmPAGE 23Proper Storage of Breast MilkPlease note that as of February 12, 2021, the US CDC has updated their recommendations for storage of Breast Milk. Please see below. Refer to CDC website for current guidelines.How do I thaw and use stored breast milk?• Always make sure to check the date on the milk’s container before using. Do not use undated milk, or milk that has been stored too long.• Thaw frozen milk in the refrigerator or under cool, running water.• Heat the milk under warm, running water and gently swirl the container to mix the milk.• If warm water is not available, heat a pan of water on the stove. Once the water is warm, not boiling, remove the pan from the stove and place the milk container in the pan. Never warm the milk container directly on the stove.• Never microwave breast milk because microwaves can cause dangerous hot spots that could burn you or a baby.• Always test the temperature of the milk on the inside of your wrist before feeding it to a baby. The milk should feel warm, not hot.• After thawing, milk should be stored in the refrigerator for no more than 24 hours.• Never refreeze thawed milk. Throw away previously frozen milk that is not used within 24 hours.

PAGE 24Troubleshooting TipsLoss of Suction• Make sure pump is turned on, motor is running, and suction level is turned up to your regular setting.• Make sure that parts are correctly assembled and ﬁt together snugly. Check that you have inserted the Barrier into the Valve Base. Do not vary assembly instructions. • If the ﬁt between the Valve Base and Flange is loose, try replacing the Valve Base with a new Valve Base, and/or re-boil the hard cup parts.• If suction has diminished, try replacing the Valves with new Valves. This part should be replaced approximately every 2 – 3 months to maintain good suction.• Check that the Tubing, Y-Connector and L-Connector are securely attached and not obstructed. • Make sure Breast Flange is securely pressed against breast creating a seal around nipple and is properly seated in bra. Check that no bra material or Tubing is between the Cups and your skin. Nipple should not be bent or pinched inside the Breast Flange, and Cups should not be tilting upward, downward, or o to the side.Breasts Not Emptying• Always center Breast Flange over nipple. If the Breast Flange is o the center of the nipple you may impede milk release, experience loss of suction, or prevent the complete emptying of the breast.• Try adjusting the position of Freemie. Comfortably position your body to help create the best seal between Freemie and your skin. Experiment with your body position by sitting up straighter, leaning forward a little, or pulling your shoulders back.• The hard Breast Flanges come in size 30mm only. Add either the 25mm or 28mm soft purple SlimFit Fitmie inserts to size down the nipple opening on the Cups. Review size regularly. Purchase other sizes as needed. • Additional soft SlimFit Fitmie insert sizes 15mm – 28mm are available and sold separately. • If you require a Flange diameter or depth that we do not currently oer, then unfortunately we do not recommend the Freemie System as your full time pumping tool.• If problems emptying your breasts persist, consult your lactation or healthcare professional.• Try a tighter ﬁtting bra to ensure that the bra can support and maintain both an adequate seal and hold Freemie in an upright position. Consider trying a sports bra.• If single pumping, be sure Y-Connector plug is securely closed on one side.Milk in Tubing• Check that the Cups have been correctly assembled by inserting the Barriers into the Valve Bases.• Check that the edges of the Barriers are overlapping the Valve Bases.• Thoroughly inspect the Barrier parts for any hole or tear. Under a bright light, uncurl Barrier edges, and gently squeeze part open to look for damage. Replace if damage is found. • Make sure you are using a wearable Freemie Pump.
