Did you all know to start pumping in the faster “let down” mode at first? If not, How long did it take you to figure it out?

I cried the first time I tried this pump and ended up using my manual pump instead. I struggled so much with it. This video is SO helpful! Thank you!!

As a first time mom this video is heaven sent. I just started to figure out about the express and let down settings on my own but I didn't figure out how many cycles they were until I watched this video! Thank you so much!!!

I’ll be 8 weeks Postpartum in two days and have been using this pump ‘backwards’ for all of that time. 😤🥲 Thank you for this video!! 🙏🏾

Baby is 3 weeks and been having a hard time. I thought I knew everything. But this just helped tremendously! I started the video at the start of my pump session just now. Big difference. I haven't been able to latch baby in a 2 weeks because of mastitis & just bad pain & a bad latch.

This video was SO helpful. Thank you so much for posting this!! You explain everything so clearly. As a new mom, breastfeeding and pumping is very intimidating but this video made me feel a lot more comfortable with using the pump. thank you thank you thank you!!!

I just got my spectra today and your video was so easy to follow along and get mine set up …love this pump can’t wait for my baby girl to get here so I can start it up lol 😊

Thank you so much for the video!! Yes the manual did not explain things very well. 😭 And I didn't realize there were different breast shield sizes until now - no wonder it looked wrong! Thank you for your detailed explanation of EVERYTHING for the S2!! ❤️

Incredible video. 3 days postpartum. Got spectra 2 as a hand me down and had no idea how to operate it. I gotta get smaller flanges then I'll be in business

Thank you so much for this video!! This is my third baby and I’m just now realizing I’ve been pumping wrong this entire time!!! I’m using your strategies and have already seen a better response during my sessions. THANK YOU!!!!

Omg!! I’ve been using my pump all wrong!!😭 I’m 6 week postpartum and having to bring my supply back up after baby girl had a lip/tongue tie. Finally got the procedure done and we are working our way back to EBF!!💗

Omg thank you so much for this video I read the instructions and I was getting frustrated as a FTM everything is so new and this made my life so much easier!!

This was super helpful and made me feel more confident about pumping for the first time. Thank you.

Thank you so so much for this detailed video! I got my pump all set up from watching this and will begin to use it today!

Who’s that girl at 2:53? Bring some more of her out! We appreciate the humor!!😂 My lady and I have been drinking from a fire house for the last 6 days. No sleep and waiting on our milk supply to come in while our little girl sings to the neighbors at a Whitney Houston pitch from 9PM till 4 AM. The pizza guy doesn’t want to deliver to us anymore because I’ve asked him to take our trash out every time he delivers. 😂 Needless to say we are feeling the feels but loving our new little girl and loving all of this every step of the way. Especially each other. Thank you!

Thank you for the crash course on this pump, btw, great video! Another question: do you wash the backflow shield? The manual says “everything that touches the breast and/or milk, and I wasn’t sure if that backflow protector touches the milk

Should have learned how to use this BEFORE bringing home the infant - Kassi saved me sleep deprived and needing to learn how to use my Spectra fast.

Thank you very much! This helps a LOT especially when navigating the chaos of early parenthood! Godspeed and God Bless!

I am 22 29weeks pregnant i got this pump and it was confusing till now thank you so much for the video!!!

your Video is very helpful. I am the ftm. the way you explain the instruction was helped me a lot. Thank you so much!

I love my Spectra s2 pump, even more than the Medela at the hospital. I also enjoy the Luna Motif. Thanks for the info 👍

Thank you so much, this was such a great review: calm, systematic, covered all the important things, demo'd and pointed out all the pertinent info. I appreciate it!!!

Thank you so much for this video. I thought It wasn't working or that I wasn't producing. Then I followed your steps and it works 🙂

Super helpful video! I watched and pumped for the for the first time watching your video!

Thank you for a very well explained video. I wasn’t getting with other videos but you made it easier to understand ❤

Very helpful! I’m used to the Medela, but for baby #3 insurance provided me with this 1 and thanks to you I will be starting tonight!

Ty. I am less overwhelmed now.

I'm really glad I found this video... today is day 2 of me using this Spectra S2 pump (it's my work pump) because at home I use the Medela Freestyle Flex. I was using the pump backwards because I just read the manual and it just says to hit the wave button... so I used it backwards. The Medela Freestyle Flex does the whole letdown setting thing by itself. With that said, I do like the Spectra S2 pump because I feel like it empties me well (even using it backwards! lol)

Thank you for this helpful video! So glad I found it before I started my pumping journey.

Thank you for this video! Made learning the breast pump less intimidating.

Oh those are good tips because I had no idea what I was doin I got this from a coworker

OMG I just finished watching this as I was sterilizing/boiling it for the first time and I washed the tubes!

This was so helpful! Thank you :) What do the other cycles mean? What does 38 and 50 mean?

Thank you Sooo much!! This was just perfect. Thank you!! New mom here ❤

Well my baby just turned a month today got my pump day I got home from hospital. Read manual since this is my 1st time pumping. I've been doing it wrong. When turn pump on I have set to 50 when I see milk coming is when I push the other button thats on 70 and been doing that whole time. Thanks to this video next pump I can do it right the manual made it sound like the way I was doing it was right. I've been getting about 3 to 4 oz every time I pump. Excited to see how much now that I know how to properly use it. Least I only did it wrong for a month. Probably should have watched a video right away not just read manual.

This is absolutely perfect! Exactly what I was looking for! Loved the tips on how to setup Spectra S1 and Spectra S2!

Thank you so much! I feel like I can use this now with ease :) Getting induced tomorrow night, so excited/anxious!

This was so helpful. I just got mine today. Thank you so much ❤

Super helpful because I just ordered this through my insurance!!

Could you explain the difference in the cycles? (You started to go into it around 8:08) but I’m not quite sure the purpose! Thank you!

Ah, just what I needed! This was very helpful. Thank you!!😊😊

You are a saint thank you so much for this! So educational

my milk is decreasing :( should I keep pumping even if no milk comes out? btw- you're video is by far the best of all the! thank you!!

WHYYYYYYY?!?!? I've bee pumping backwards for over a month now! Why would they design their machine this way and not even mention it in the manual 🤦🏽‍♀️

Can i sterilize my parts of the pump by placing it in water that was boiled? Or is that not safe? Or can i wash with warm soapy water?

SO helpful and concise, thanks!

Thanku soooo much You explain in very easy way .

So amazingly helpful!!! Thank you so much!!

So helpful!!! Thank you so much for posting!

Wow this is was most helpful video I have seen! Thank you!!! Needed a thorough explanation as a first time mama to be!

wish I had this when I started pumping!

That you so much this was so helpful! I’ll be sharing it with more mamas

Thank you so much for this video, are we able to steralize all parts in an electric sterilizer besides the tubing ?

Thank you, very informative

Thanks for this great video. As far as I understood, I will wash parts after each use and there is no need to wash before using right? If I am going to pump only once a day

Thank you SO Much for this video!

Love this! From a first time mom, thank you so much for this video. ❤️

What can not be put in dishwasher for sanitizing? Are there some parts that must be hand washed ( you mentioned squishy parts..?)? What are some options or tips/tricks for washing after use vs sterilizing daily? Can i just put in dishwasher after every use?

I was wondering if I need to pull the duckbills off after each use or if I can just leave them attached while washing the flange part?

Thank you! Great video

New sub here and new to breastfeeding.

This was so helpful thank you so much but does it need to stay plugged in ❤

Thank you !!! I have this pump i was starting to hate it lol

Thank you so much for this. I have 6 valves that are all different sizes. What are the differences?

Somewhere in the manual, it says “don’t sterilize in the microwave.” Could this just mean don’t put them in there and press go? I have a sterilization bag from Medela, where you add 2 oz of water and steam sterilize for 3 min. Is that ok?

How do you use the bottle disk and bottle cap for the storage collection bottle? Thank you

Very helpful thank you!

Thank you ! Great review !

this video was so helpful! thank you so much!

What is the recommended speed and level? What’s the difference between stimulation and let down?

What is the cycle function for? Thank you

Hello, I’m about to give birth to my first baby in late February and I bought a pump but I would love to hear your input on it Can you please do a review on the Bella baby pump it has 9 levels of suction and I would really appreciate you explaining which one would be best in your profesional opinion, thank you so much

First time mom and this may be a dumb question but what is a "cycle"

So helpful! Thank you!

Can someone explain to me what the cycle means?

Thanks. This company in all their infinite wisom failed to include any instruction whatsoever. Though your video contained an enormous amount of chitchat rather than straight up instructions, it is much appreciated.

Does it matter if you place the duckbill valve facing other directions?

Thank you 💗💗

First time using this breast pump. And I just want to know when I’m cleaning products and boiling them for the first time do I also clean and boil the tubing. The manual says sanitize the breast shield kit in boiling water for no more than 5 minutes

Thank you for the help, much appreciated.

Thank you so much that was so helpful!💜

Thank you for the helpful info! I have this exact pump, but for some reason, I can’t change my vacuum and cycle speeds on the letdown phase…it stays at 70 for the cycle and only goes up to 5 for the vacuum. Do you know why this is? Is there a reset I can possibly use?

Do we wash and sterilize the back flow protectors?

Very helpful

What is expression phase and let down phase?

What parts do I need to boil? And what do I not need to boil when I first get it?

Thank you for this video

Amazing video only you dont gave to wash parts after each use you can as well keep it in a bag and place ut in refrigerator and wash it and sterilise it every 24 hours

Great video! Thank you

Ty very much!!!

I just got this pump gently used for $20! What would you recommend I replace on it since it is used?

Do you wash and sanitize the tubing the first time out of the package? Will moisture get trapped in it?

Many people said they were using the pump backwards. What do they mean

So helpful thank you

Thanks for the video I found one new on yard sale for $5 ❤😊

Does the machine vibrate on the table? I just got one in the mail and I think something is wrong with it. The suction is so weak and Everyone said this machine is quiet but it vibrates on the table or floor loud

Thank you!

What are the cycles, its not explained? Is there a bigger flange then 28?

great overview! you have explained it so well!

Would you recommend everyone waiting the two minutes or wait until milk starts flowing?
