The most effective way to improve your experience with a Spectra pump is to use a dedicated pumping bra, which holds the flanges securely in place and ensures a better seal. This allows you to be hands-free, making it much easier to multitask, and many mothers find it actually improves milk output because of the consistent suction. If dedicated pumping bras are unavailable, nursing bras with a pumping-compatible design are a viable alternative. If you prefer to be fully mobile while pumping, some mothers opt for wearable pumps, though it is generally recommended to keep your primary pump as the hospital-grade Spectra.
