Quick Answer
To choose the right flange for your Thrive 2-in-1 Breast Pump, measure your nipple diameter and select the corresponding size from the available options—whether you need the Wearable Cup Flanges for on-the-go pumping or the PowerPump set for home use.
Why Flange Size Matters
A proper flange fit is crucial for comfortable and efficient pumping. A flange that is too small can cause nipple friction and pain, while one that is too large may not create a proper seal, reducing milk output. The Thrive 2-in-1 system offers interchangeable flanges to accommodate different body sizes and preferences.
Choosing Between Wearable Cup Flanges and PowerPump Flanges
The Thrive 2-in-1 Breast Pump is designed to work with two flange sets: the Wearable Cup Flanges (product ID 79273) and the PowerPump Flange Set (product ID 79274). The Wearable Cup Flanges are ideal for discreet pumping on the go, as they fit inside your bra and allow you to move freely. The PowerPump set is designed for stationary pumping sessions at home or work, offering a more traditional setup with tubing.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I measure my nipple for the correct flange size?
Measure the diameter of your nipple (not the areola) in millimeters. Lansinoh recommends measuring before pumping or after a short pumping session, as nipples can swell. Use the size chart provided with your Thrive 2-in-1 pump to match your measurement to the correct flange size.
Can I use the same flange size for both Wearable Cup Flanges and PowerPump sets?
Yes, both the Wearable Cup Flanges (product ID 79273) and the PowerPump Flange Set (product ID 79274) are available in the same size options. You can choose the same size for both sets, ensuring a consistent fit whether you're pumping on the go or at home. If you own both sets, order the same size for both to avoid confusion.
What if the standard sizes don't fit me?
Lansinoh offers a range of flange sizes, but if you find that none of the available sizes provide a comfortable fit, consider using flange inserts or sizing up. Consult Lansinoh's customer support for personalized guidance, as fit can vary between individuals.
