Medela Symphony Pump - The Efficient Choice

The silently powerful Medela Symphony Pump is a top class Medela creation with which you will get hospital-standard performance and a three-year warranty from the maker. An outcome of an elaborate study conducted by Peter Hartman, PhD., who is one of the leading lactation researchers in the world – the Symphony comes from the house of Medela. The Medela Symphony Pump can be used regularly and in this, you will also find the Natural Expression™ two-stage mechanism that has made this company so renowned.

There is one definite way nature has devised in which the baby sucks the milk out and if a breast pump can replicate this, then the results would naturally be great – the Symphony does this with the Natural Expression™ two-phase pumping system. You will find that there are 2 stages – in the first stimulation phase, there is vigorous pumping that stimulates the milk ejection reflex of the mom, and the second is the actual ejection stage in which, the vacuum level is lowered so that the milk comes out. Nature has indeed designed the best mechanisms, and the Symphony takes this example and replicates this for best results. And this mechanism also enhances the speed of extraction, thus reducing the pumping time. There are two main advantages – more milk can be extracted and in less time too.

There is no need to adjust the controls always – all the mom needs to do is save the settings in the Program Card of the Medela Symphony Pump. The memory chip integrated within the Program Card memorizes the settings that are preferred by the mom user for all future performances. The Symphony Program Cards are available in English, Spanish and French.

There is just one knob using which the mom is able to control the cycles per minute and the vacuum level in the expression phase. And if needed, the nursing mother can swap from single to double pump modes if and when the need arises. There is an LCD Display that you will find here and this shows many things such as the battery status, pumping phase, vacuum level and more. Most moms who have used the Symphony find the one-hand knob controls something that makes it very convenient to use.

If you are a breast feeding mom who want something that is simple to work with, and something that is efficient, comfortable and quick, then the Symphony Pump is what you should get. Finally, the mom is able to depend on something that lets her keep the baby out of breast feeding and she can go back to office as well. All she has to do is get the milk out and store it. And then the caregiver – even the dad, can feed the baby whenever it is required.
