Quick Answer
To use the Willow Sync Splashguard Container Set, simply attach a splashguard container to your Willow Sync pump before expressing, ensuring a secure fit to prevent leaks. Replace or rotate containers as needed for hygiene and convenience.
Why a Splashguard Container Matters
The splashguard container is a small but essential part of your Willow Sync pumping setup. It sits inside the pump flange and helps direct milk flow away from the motor and into the collection bag, reducing mess and protecting your device.
Having a spare set means you can rotate containers between sessions, which is especially helpful when you pump multiple times a day or when one container is being washed and dried.
Compatibility and Fit Considerations
The Willow Sync Splashguard Container Set is designed specifically for Willow wearable breast pumps. Before purchasing, confirm that your pump model is Willow Sync, as the splashguard may not fit other Willow models like Willow Go or Willow 3.0.
The set includes two containers, giving you a backup or allowing you to alternate. Always inspect the container for cracks or warping before each use, as a damaged splashguard can compromise the seal and cause leaks.
Step-by-Step Usage Guide
- Wash and dry your hands and container: Before handling the splashguard container, wash your hands thoroughly. Rinse the container with warm water and mild soap, then let it air dry completely. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers that could scratch the surface. Check that the container is completely dry before assembly to prevent moisture from affecting the pump's seal.
- Attach the splashguard container to the pump flange: Align the splashguard container with the flange opening on your Willow Sync pump. Press firmly until it clicks into place. Ensure it sits flush and does not wobble. If the container does not click securely, remove and reattach it. A loose fit can lead to leaks during pumping.
- Position the pump and begin expressing: Place the assembled pump into your bra, ensuring the flange is centered over your nipple. Start the pump and monitor for any unusual sounds or leaks. Adjust the position if needed. If you notice milk pooling around the flange, stop the pump and recheck the splashguard container's fit.
- Remove and empty the container after use: After pumping, carefully remove the pump from your bra. Detach the splashguard container and pour the expressed milk into a storage bottle or bag. Rinse the container immediately to prevent milk residue from drying. Clean the container promptly after each use to maintain hygiene and prevent staining.
