This is the first time I have used a breast pump, I am finding it really tricky to use, you have to press it really hard against your breast or else it leaks, also finding that you have to slightly lean forward is not good for your back.
What can I do?
A breast shield is a great option for mothers who find the softer, more flexible, silicon material a better fit when pumping with less leakage.
