Medela Natural Expression

Natural Expression™ is the only research-based breastpump technology that mimics a baby’s nursing rhythm—designed for faster let-down and milk flow.

Natural Expression is based on an in-depth study by leading lactation researcher, Dr. Peter Hartmann, Ph.D. Hartmann’s research showed that a breastfeeding baby has a characteristic sucking pattern that begins with rapid, high frequency sucking and changes abruptly to a slower suck/swallow pattern at the time of milk ejection. Hartmann’s research also demonstrated that a breastpump using two-phase cycling, which most closely resembles a baby’s nursing rhythm, is more effective in breast milk removal than single-cycling breastpumps.

Initially developed for hospital breastpumps, Natural Expression uses two pumping patterns to mimic a baby’s nursing rhythm more effectively than ever before. During the “Let-Down” mode, the pump mimics a breastfeeding baby’s initial rapid nursing action that stimulates the milk ejection reflex (MER) or “let-down” and quickly begins milk flow. Once milk begins to flow, moms switch to the second mode, called “Expression,” which mimics the infant’s longer feeding cycle in which slower, deeper suckling helps to maximize milk flow in less time.

Together the two rhythms of the Natural Expression pumping pattern make for a comfortable and authentic pumping experience that is more like a baby than any other pump.

The Symphony is the first breastpump with Natural Expression™, Medela’s breakthrough two-phase pumping program that offers an initial, rapid rhythm to promote “Let-Down” and then a slower, deeper rhythm for efficient milk expression.

Pumping Programs are stored on a Program Card, allowing further Pumping Programs to be implemented in the future by releasing alternate Program Cards as research supports it.

For moms’ convenience, one knob combines vacuum level and the number of cycles per minute in the expression phase.

Moms can switch between single and double pumping simply by adding or removing the second Pump Collection Set.

Specially designed membrane separates Pump Collection Set from pump mechanism, ensuring unmatched overflow protection without compromising vacuum capacity.

LCD Display indicates pumping phase, vacuum level, battery status, and other handling and service information.

Whisper-quiet; the world’s quietest symphony you are happy not to hear….

Available in both a standard and a rechargeable-battery version.

Includes:

Pumping Program with options for both automatic and manual switching between pumping phases, based on moms’ needs.
