Troubleshooting

Collector is not staying in place.

Ensure you are using a well-fitting nursing bra. Adjust the bra straps and band for a snug fit that holds the collector securely against your breast.

Milk is leaking from the top edge.

Check that the top rim of the collector is making good contact with your skin all the way around. Ensure it is positioned correctly within the bra to maintain a seal.

Difficulty pouring milk without spilling.

Carefully tilt the collector towards the spout opening when transferring milk. Ensure the spout is clear of any obstructions.

Collector has a slight odor after washing.

Ensure the collector is thoroughly dried after washing and before storing. For persistent odors, try boiling the collector in water for 5 minutes.
