Have you noticed the skin turning red?
Are the nipple and areola white?
After pumping, do you feel that no milk has flowed out?

Most of these issues are because you are using a flange that does not fit you. If you are not sure which size of flange suits you, you can read our article on this topic.
You can correctly position the flange, and also check for insufficient power supply; for more details, please consult your family doctor.
Put the wearable breast pump into the nursing bra so it fits on the breast, and check that the nipple is in the middle and does not touch the silicone flange.

Choose a nursing bra that is the right size and comfortable. A nursing bra that is too loose or too tight can cause discomfort or injury.
After correctly installing the breast pump and adjusting it to the right position, turn on the breast pump and start working. Keep your upper body upright when pumping, not leaning forward or backward by more than 45°.
When the breast pump has finished working, release the nursing bra button and slowly take off the breast pump from above. Do not turn the breast pump upside down during this process!

Wearing a nursing bra or breast pump for a long time may cause discomfort. Please be extra careful when wearing and using it.
Choosing the Right Suction Mode and Level
The GLE10 breast pump is designed with three modes (Stimulation Mode, Expression Mode, Depth Mode, which can be adjusted by briefly pressing the "M" button on the dashboard) and 8 suction levels to meet the needs of different mothers. To choose the settings that suit you best, consider the following:
Initial Stage: When first using it, it's recommended to start at the lowest suction level and try the basic pumping mode. This helps you adapt to the feeling of the breast pump and can reduce breast discomfort.
Personal Comfort: During use, gradually increase the suction based on your comfort level. If you feel discomfort or pain, you should immediately reduce the suction or stop using it and consult a professional.
Efficiency and Needs: Adjust the mode and level according to your milk production and pumping needs. If you need to pump quickly, you can choose a higher suction level, provided it does not affect comfort.
Mode Switching: The GLE10 breast pump offers different working modes, such as massage mode and expression mode. You can switch between different modes based on the feeling of your breasts and the flow of milk to promote milk secretion and improve pumping efficiency.
