Re: where do you get replacement pump tubing?

  • I ordered in on Amazon. Otherwise, you can buy it on the Medela website, though it costs more.

  • FYI i did get ahold of a medical supply place and they have a replacement "kit" for the symphony with tubing and attachments.....  it sells for 49.99 but i think it would work on the pump in style as well...... 

     

    much cheaper to buy the tubing online, but if time is pressing....

    The tubing is different for the symphony b/c it's a closed system.  The ends have a diaphragm type thing where they connect to the motor - you might be able to cut it off and use the tubes but that seems like a waste.  

    You really don't have to replace the tubing unless it's damaged, most people can just wash & sterilize (I like the microwave bags).

  • I called Medela and they sent me free replacements...not sure if that's normal practice or not, but might be worth a shot.

    You actually can just cut the special connectors off the ends of the symphony tubing and it'll work just fine for a pump in style. (I just bought replacement parts for my Pump In Style from a local hospital's lactation consultants' office, and that's what they did. Everything still seems to fit, and they swear it'll work.)
