Used breast pump, how do I clean it?

Question

I got a used breast pump, going to see about getting one through my insurance when I deliver, but how do I go about cleaning it?? Do I just soak everything in hot soapy water?

Answer

Honestly I wouldn’t use it. Unless it’s a closed system. I’d get all new parts

Answer

This is the pump I have. My sister in law doesn’t have kids but she nanny’s so she kinda thinks she knows everything so I don’t always go off of what she says... she just said to wash all the parts with soap and air dry them and then to boil them in hot water

Answer

If you can’t afford new parts like the breast shields and cord things (idk if all of them have it. Mine does) then try using boiling water and soap. Or they make sanitizing bags you put everything in and microwave them

Answer

What kind is it? If it’s a Spectra it’s a closed system so you just need to buy pump parts if it’s a Medela or other brand those are not closed and there’s no way to sanitize the actual pump
