More about the Elvie Stride 2
Featuring new ultra-soft silicone cups, they hug the natural curve of the breast for even greater comfort and discretion. The new cups also help to enhance nipple fit and comfort, so mothers can optimize their milk output.
Hospital grade suction is effective in extracting milk - but correctly fitting breast shields are also essential to maximise milk output. By having correctly fitting breast shields, it helps prevent milk ducts from becoming compressed during pumping which also helps breasts to empty effectively so mothers can get the most out of a pump session.
Incorrectly fitting breast shields can cause nipples to rub, which can lead to discomfort and compromise the amount of milk expressed.
Key features of the Elvie Stride 2

What is the Elvie Stride?
I tested the Elvie Stride Double Electric Breast Pump, and found that it gave me back so much freedom when it came to expressing, as I was tied to a manual breast pump or restricted by being plugged into the mains to use the breast pump.
I found it to be effortless, and here at Mother&Baby we are excited to see how the Elvie Stride 2 compares, with a full a review of the Elvie Stride 2 coming soon.
