We're so happy to finally be releasing our UV Sterilizing Bag! UV Sterilizing a safe, easy method of sterilizing and by packaging it into a portable, lightweight bag we've made keeping your pump parts (as well as anything else you'd like to sterilize!) hassle-free.
Measuring at 14 cm by 26 cm and weighing in at 520g, the UV Sterilizing Bag is super lightweight and convenient to take out and about for sterilizing on the go.
Wash your breast pump parts first, and then place inside the UV Sterilizing Bag. It's okay for the parts to be wet - just shake off excess water. Note - the UV Sterilizing bag won't dry parts - just sterilize them.
Once you're ready to start, zip up the bag and press the start button. The button will pulse and you will see the UV sterilising in process through the front view panel. The bag will beep after 5 minutes to let you know that sterilizing is complete.
Charging is super easy. Just pop out the micro-USB charger tucked into the handle and connect to any 5 volt USB wall plug. Charging time is 4 hours and you'll get about 20 sterilizing uses out of each charge.
To clean, just wipe with a damp cloth or baby wipe. As this product contains electronics, please never use dishwasher or immerse in water.

Using the correct sized breastshield is really important to have the most comfortable pumping experience. We are all different shapes and sizes, and it can be really hard to know which breastshield size you will be when you start pumping.
A baby's mouth compresses a nipple evenly all over the nipple and areola, whereas a breastshield flange is rigid. As a result, if your flange is too large, the areola will 'bunch' up into the flange, which can cause pain and nipple trauma. You want the flange to be just wide enough to fit the base of your nipple, preventing the areola from being able to get pulled into the flange.
Using our nipple ruler is a good place to start.
If you've used the ruler and you're still not sure, we're happy to help with another opinion. If you'd like us to give you feedback, please take a photo of your nipple through each size so we can compare how each fits. You can send your pics through the 'chat' function at bottom right of the page.
For extra help, send a video of your nipple in the flange while you're pumping through our Fitting Room.
