2-Phase Expression 2-Phase Expression is the only research-based breastpump technology that mimics a baby's nursing rhythm- designed for faster let-down and milk flow. 2-Phase Expression is based on an in-depth study by leading lactation researcher, Dr. Peter Hartmann, Ph.D. Hartmann's research showed that a breastfeeding baby has a characteristic sucking pattern that begins with rapid, high frequency sucking and changes abruptly to a slower suck/swallow pattern at the time of milk ejection. He also found that a breastpump using two-phase cycling, which most closely resembles a baby's nursing rhythm, is more effective in breast milk removal than single-cycling breastpumps. Initially developed for hospital breastpumps, 2-Phase Expression uses two pumping patterns to mimic a baby's nursing rhythm more effectively than ever before.  During the "Let-Down" mode, the pump mimics a breastfeeding baby's initial rapid nursing action that stimulates the milk ejection reflex (MER) or "let-down" and quickly begins milk flow. Once milk begins to flow, moms switch to the second mode, called "Expression" which mimics the infant's longer feeding cycle in which slower, deeper suckling helps to maximize milk flow. Together the two rhythms of the 2-Phase Expression pumping pattern make for a comfortable and authentic pumping experience that is more like a baby than any other pump.
