How to Use Your Pump Buddy

We're excited to announce our new version of the Pump Buddy! After many conversations with customers who have used their Pump Buddies in a variety of circumstances, we've made some improvements that will make this feeding pump carrier even more versatile.

Let's learn how to use it!

How to Setup Your Pump Buddy

Your Pump Buddy has finally arrived. Yay! Let's walk through the steps of setting it up.

A Pump Buddy is laying next to the accessories including a screw, elastic with plastic tab, and 2 syringe clips.

What is included?

Your Pump Buddy comes with a few accessories to allow you to customize your experience: 2 syringe clips, an elastic with plastic tab, and a nylon screw.

First - The Pump Buddy

Your Pump Buddy comes packed with features! Our favorite is that you don't have to use any of the accessories. That's right - all you have to do is slide the feeding pump and feeding bag into their respective slots and you're ready to go! Our second favorite feature is the tubing slot on the right-hand side. Sometimes the tubes from the bag can become unwieldy. With a few loops around your hand, you can easily slide the tubing into that angled slot and you won't have to worry about tripping over it as you walk from the kitchen to the family room.

The Syringe Clips

Your Pump Buddy also includes 2 syringes clips that are designed to hold either a 60ml syringe or a 10ml syringe.

You can fit slightly smaller syringes, such as a 35ml or 20ml syringe, into the larger syringe clip. However, if you intend to use it with a smaller syringe for an extended period of time, we recommend adding a bit of 3M sticky back foam padding for a better experience.

Attaching a Syringe Clip | Step 1 of 2

Once you have decided which of the 2 syringe clips you wish to use with your Pump Buddy, located the long slit on the upper left-hand side of your Pump Buddy. Slide your selected syringe clip into the slot.

Once you have slid the syringe clip into the slot, give it a little wiggle to make sure that it has fully seated into the hole. If there is a significant amount of movement, trying pinching the syringe clip so as to completely press the locking ridge into the slot.

The Elastic

Also included with your Pump Buddy is an elastic that can be attached to your new feeding pump holder which will then help secure the feeding bag.

Attaching the Elastic | Step 1 of 4

To begin, grab your Pump Buddy and stand it upright.

Then grab your elastic and pinch together the end that does not have the plastic tab on it. This will create a small loop.
