Breast Shield Question...UPDATE

Did anyone find that going up a size was beneficial to their pumping output? I use the standard 24" now.

Just wanted to add that I don't think I pumped much more either, but it was slightly more comfortable!

Absolutely!!! And much less painful!

I use the 30mm sheilds and they are so much better.

Re: Breast Shield Question...

I was measured by a lactation consultant and the 30 mm is so much more comfortable for me. It didn't change the amount I get, I think that is more of a supply and demand thing.
