Medela Symphony Quick Start Instructions

Symphony pumping programs
Quick start instructions
The Symphony breast pump with its research-based
pumping programs has been developed specifically to
support mothers throughout their lactation journey: to
initiate, build and maintain an adequate milk production.
Double-pumping is recommended, as this can help to increase
and maintain milk production.
EFFICIENCY
The INITIATE program supports pump-dependent
mothers to successfully initiate milk production. The
program mimics the irregular and more rapid sucking
and pausing pattern of a term born infant in the first
days of lactation.

The MAINTAIN program is designed to optimise milk
output after secretory activation (milk coming in) has
occurred, in order to build and maintain an adequate milk
production. The program with its 2-Phase Expression
technology mimics the term born infant’s sucking pattern
during established lactation.
