Cleaning the medela pump in style advance on the go

Question

HOw do you clean your pump when on the go. i have seen those wipes that medela sells, but do they really clean them well enough to use the pump again later. i exclusively pump, so if i am out of the house for say hours i may have to pump more than once and want the pump to be clean for the second pump session i'd have to do.

Answer 1

I too exclusively pump with the medela pump in stlye advance back pack. When im out for a long period of time, for example at work,friends house,etc. i make sure to wash the breast sheilds and bottles with luke warm water and soap. I make sure to bring my bottle brush along to help with cleaning the breast sheilds and the bottles. I find that water and soap is more sterile than those medela wipes. I have even taken my pump on a 15hr road trip. So i know the feeling.

Just make sure where ever u go that there is a bathroom or kitchen sink available. Pumping has become second nature for me.LOL. I have been exclusively pumping for 10months now. I have 2 more to go....

Good Luck!
