About this deal
The needed length is dependent on the length of the nipple, the elasticity of the nipple, and the suction strength and pattern of the pump.
These inserts are made of a firm, but flexible, traditional silicone material, and are Y-shaped like a traditional flange.Many people would find the same insert with a stronger suction pump like the Willow or the Baby Buddha to be just asking for a mushroom nipple due to missing length. The rim of the insert is the part that will be in contact with the areola, and it needs to be fitted well to the flange. The size of the flange insert: This is measured in millimeters, and the size you need is based off of the fit for your nipples in a particular pump. They have a fairly short tunnel length at 18 mm and are stretchy in nature, creating a situation where it can almost strangle a stretchier nipple.
They are quite useful in my clinical practice as they fit in my car office without taking too much room and they are easily cleaned and sterilized.The Dripper Insert Nipple Tee allows you to run 2 dripper arrows from the same length of dripper line.
