I mean, I still try to be super clean about them but I'm definitely not as worried as he gets older! (I.e. I just throw them in the fridge between pumping sessions now and use the sterilizer microwave bags!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-in-medela-pisa-the-connector#post-2009844 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 10:42:14 +0000 snowjewelz 2009844@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ElbieKay: @psw27: haha can you tell I'm a newbie at pumping?! :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-in-medela-pisa-the-connector#post-2009807 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 10:10:02 +0000 psw27 2009807@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My pump parts seem to always be a little wet, I never worry about it. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-in-medela-pisa-the-connector#post-2009793 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 10:05:25 +0000 ElbieKay 2009793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: I would definitely not halt my pumping operation due to a little bit of water! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-in-medela-pisa-the-connector#post-2009789 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 10:03:17 +0000 snowjewelz 2009789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: @ElbieKay: ohh haha ok! I was about to order another set! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-in-medela-pisa-the-connector#post-2009765 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 09:42:06 +0000 ElbieKay 2009765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: Breastmilk is mostly water. I wouldn't worry about a few extra drops unless there is some extenuating circumstance that requires complete sterilization. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-in-medela-pisa-the-connector#post-2009754 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 09:36:17 +0000 regberadaisy 2009754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ohhhh I wouldn't worry about it. Haha mine never fully dry out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-in-medela-pisa-the-connector#post-2009749 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 09:34:21 +0000 snowjewelz 2009749@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@matador84: @regberadaisy: not the tubing.. The piece where the tube plugs into and where the valve/membrane is connected to. It's the spot where milk goes through from flange to membrane. </p> <p>Day 2 of drying and I think they are finally dry but I didn't pump yesterday bc I didn't want any water to get in the BM! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-in-medela-pisa-the-connector#post-2009478 Sun, 04 Jan 2015 22:25:50 +0000 Freckles 2009478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I run the pump for 15 minutes and it goes away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-in-medela-pisa-the-connector#post-2009474 Sun, 04 Jan 2015 22:22:53 +0000 erinpye 2009474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Rubbing alcohol dries the tubing out- just use a little and let it run through it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-in-medela-pisa-the-connector#post-2009466 Sun, 04 Jan 2015 22:05:04 +0000 regberadaisy 2009466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Leave it plugged into the faceplate but unconnected on the other end and just run the pump until all the condensation disappears. FYI you don't have to wash the tubing if nothing gets into them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-in-medela-pisa-the-connector#post-2009461 Sun, 04 Jan 2015 21:59:52 +0000 matador84 2009461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>are you talking about the tubing or something else? My tubing does this and it eventually disappeared. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/water-in-medela-pisa-the-connector#post-2009458 Sun, 04 Jan 2015 21:58:56 +0000 snowjewelz 2009458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So after I washed and boiled there's still a little condensation after leaving them to dry for a day. I tried shaking it, turning them on different sides.. What else can I do? </p>
