How does Youha Embody wearable breast pump work?
Embody fits into your bra and can be controlled with the buttons on each motor or remotely via the My YOUHA App to make expressing comfortable, convenient and most delightfully, free of any cords and tubing! The breast milk collects in the cups as you pump, when you're done you simply pour it into a bottle or storage bag.
Embody pumpers say... "Unbelievable being unhooked from all the cords!!!!!!!" and "You can get almost anything done while wearing them and can pick up your babies if needed"
How long does a pumping session last?
Approximately 15-20 minutes per session. You can conveniently check how long you've been pumping by opening the MY YOUHA app on your phone (even if you're mid-session) which will display a stopwatch that started when you turned your pump motors on. The App makes it super easy to track your sessions too, when you turn the motors off, it invites you to save the pre-recorded time and duration of each side (you can also input the volume of milk you expressed to track your supply). A safety setting will stop the pump at the maximum recommended session time of 30 minutes in case you forget you're pumping!
Embody pumpers love... "It’s portability - giving me freedom to look after my 4 month old twins and my toddler, cook dinner, play, hang washing out etc. It makes mum life significantly easier!"
Can I move around while I pump with Youha Embody?
You sure can. Embody is the pump that goes wherever motherhood takes you, so that you can move through your day (and to-do list!) seamlessly while staying present for your family and friends (who needn't know you're pumping). Take Embody on all your adventures in it's beautiful tailored travel bag and keep your milk safe for transporting back home in our insulated cooler bag or pumping bag.
Embody pumpers say... "The pump is great! I pump on the bus, in the car, at work and it's all discreet. Just perfect!!" and "Loved having a pump that gives me the freedom to move around vs. feeling tied to my seat."
Can Youha Embody be used for single or double expressing?
Yes, Embody can be used for either single or double sided expressing. Controlling your Embody via the My YOUHA App allows you to synchronise their settings or control each side independently.
Can I pump on one side and breastfeed on the other?
You certainly can pump on one side and breastfeed on the other, allowing you to consolidate your overall feeding/expressing time.
Embody pumpers say... "the Youha wearable pump being so discreet meant my baby wasn't grabbing the tubing, flanges and bottles out of curiosity like he would with a traditional pump"
What do I do with my breast milk once I've expressed?
Once you've expressed with Embody, you can store your milk in your baby's bottles or milk storage bags. You can chose to either pour through hole at the top (flat part) of your cup with the breast shield still in place, regulating the flow by pressing on the soft shield, or otherwise simply peel the lip of the breast shield off the lower edge of the cup for a speedy transfer. If you're out and about, pop your bottles or bags of milk in a cooler pack with an ice pack to keep it safe until you can transfer to a fridge.
Is Youha Embody wearable breast pump comfortable to express with?
Absolutely, Youha Embody and its soft silicone breast shields are comfortable for most pumpers to express with. Once Embody's variable strength massage mode has stimulated your letdown, you can choose from 10 levels of suction strength in express mode, or use mixed mode which allows you to add between 1 and 10 massage cycles in between each express cycle for ultimate comfort and a more natural feel. The ability to control each side independently helps you easily find the most comfortable setting for each breast, and offset any difference in fullness or tenderness. Breast shields for Embody come in several sizes and convertors are available to accommodate natural fluctuations in nipple size throughout your time breastfeeding.
Embody pumpers say... "It’s comfortable, quiet and it’s expressing strength is really good! Life would be tough without it." and "It is soooooo much more comfortable and easier to manage a baby plus toddler. Amazing"
