Cleaning the pump?

I am really bored washing the pump after every session.
How often do you wash your pump if you are pumping every 2 hrs ?
Can I wash it after every alternate session ?

Just put your parts in the fridge. I couldn't do it every time I would go nuts.

I washed the parts after every pump for the 1st 5 months. Then I heard about putting them in the fridge. I so wish that I had asked this question as early as you are!!!!!!! (I'm blaming it on lack of sleep...lol) This trick has been a life saver!
