EPers- ever get nothing on one side?

SusieQ1982

It's so bizarre. Last night for one session I got nothing on the right side and now I am not getting anything on the left side. I changed valves and checked my parts but everything seems to be fine!

That's only happened when one of the parts was not tight, but I also wasn't getting any suction.

Does it feel like you're getting equal suction on both sides?

SusieQ1982

No, but I checked all the parts so I have no idea.

I would call the manufacturer of your pump.  My medela PISA just quit working one day.  I just wasn't getting much suction on either side.  I was able to exchange it for a new one.

I can't believe they'd break this fast! For two hundred bucks they should last for more than a couple of months

I just switched my flanges around and I am getting milk on that side now so you were right, there must be some problem with the parts. I tried switching out the valve but I'll try the diaphragm and the tubes next.

Yeah mine broke in the first week.  I couldn't believe it.

Hopefully you get it figured out.

I've had one side be low (in terms of production) but I usually get something from both sides.

Do you usually get less on that side?

Edit: nevermind. saw that it happened to your other side also...
