moves freely in the breast
ange tunnel. You see space
around the nipple. Not much
areola is drawn into the tunnel
with the nipple.
Too Small
During pumping, some or all
of your nipple rubs against
the sides of the breast ange
tunnel.
Too Large
During pumping, more areola
is drawn into the breast ange
with your nipple. Your areola
may rub against the side of the
breast ange tunnel.
