FAQs

Is the Medela Swing Maxi truly hands-free?

Yes, the Medela Swing Maxi Hands-Free Double Electric Breast Pump is designed to be worn inside your bra, allowing you to have your hands free during pumping sessions. This enables you to multitask or relax comfortably.

How do I clean the pump parts?

The pump cups consist of just three individual parts, all of which are dishwasher-safe. You can also wash them by hand with warm soapy water. Always disassemble and clean parts after each use, then allow them to air dry completely.

What are the benefits of connecting to the Medela Family app?

Connecting to the Medela Family app provides automatic real-time tracking of your pumping sessions, personalized, science-based content, smart tools, and helpful pumping tips to support your breastfeeding journey.

How lightweight are the pumping cups?

Each pumping cup weighs only 76g, making them ultra-lightweight. This design contributes to maximum comfort and discretion when worn in your bra.

How do I ensure I have the correct fit with the anatomic shape?

The anatomic shape is designed for effective milk flow and comfort. To ensure a correct fit, visually confirm that your nipple is centered in the tunnel of the breast shield and moves freely without rubbing. If you experience discomfort or low output, consider consulting Medela's flange sizing guide or a lactation consultant.

Is this a single or double breast pump?

The Medela Swing Maxi Hands-Free is a double electric breast pump, meaning it allows you to express milk from both breasts simultaneously for increased efficiency.

Info needed: What is the battery life of the pump?

Info needed: The specific battery life on a full charge for the Medela Swing Maxi Hands-Free pump is not provided in the product information. Please refer to your product's user manual or Medela's official website for this detail. Generally, battery life can vary based on usage settings.

Troubleshooting

Low or no milk output during pumping

Ensure the breast shield is correctly positioned and forming a good seal. Check that your nipple is centered in the tunnel. Try adjusting the vacuum (suction) level and cycle speed on the pump. Ensure all pump parts are correctly assembled and not damaged. Consult the Medela Family app for personalized tips on milk expression.

Pump motor unit is not turning on

Verify the pump's battery is charged or that it's correctly connected to its power adapter and a working electrical outlet. If using a battery, try plugging it into the charger for a period before attempting to turn it on again.

Discomfort or pain while pumping

Discontinue pumping immediately. Check your breast shield size; an incorrect size can cause discomfort. Ensure your nipple is centered and moving freely within the tunnel without rubbing. Adjust the vacuum level to a comfortable setting. If pain persists, consult a lactation consultant.

Medela Family app not connecting to the pump

Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone and that the pump is turned on. Try restarting both the pump and your phone. Re-open the Medela Family app and attempt to re-pair. Make sure the app is updated to the latest version.

Pump losing suction

Check all three parts of the breast cup assembly for any damage, tears in the membrane, or improper fit. Ensure the tubing is securely connected to both the pump motor unit and the cups without any kinks or damage. A loose or damaged part can cause a loss of vacuum.
