Replacing pumping parts?

Question

So when people talk about replacing pump parts. Is this the duckbill valve? Or the flange? Or the tubing? Or everything? My supply has gone down and baby is 4 months old so maybe I should try replacing parts but I don’t want to spend a bunch of money on new everything if I only need to replace one or two things

Answer

I have a medela pump, so not sure if this is true for all pumps, but you don’t have to buy the pump manufacturers parts. The ‘knock off’ ones on amazon work just as well with my pump. I spent $15 to get a new set of pump parts.

Answer

Replace the duckbills every 4-6 weeks or when they no longer stay closed on their own. Backflow protectors every 6 months, tubing you should normally have to unless there is stuff in the tubing
