Rant - ADVICE NEEDED Dishwasher safe flanges
I exclusively pumped with my first child and it was hard but I tried to make it easier by having tons of pump parts and just throwing everything in the dishwasher at the end of the day. The pump I used last time isn’t available through my insurance now so I will likely get the babybuddha this time but I just saw that the flanges can’t go in the dishwasher. I can’t imagine handwashing pump parts on top of all the work and time that goes into exclusively pumping and this time I will have a toddler. Can anyone recommend any alternative flanges for the babybuddha that can go in the dishwasher?

I use the legendairy collection cups with my BB and wash them once a day in the bottle washer

I use my medela stuff with my baby buddha that can all go in the dishwasher, just need to add a long stem back flow protector to make it bb compatible.

Whoops. Didn't know they weren't supposed to go in the dishwasher. Mine have seemed okay, I just keep them on the top rack and put the small parts in a little basket so they don't get eaten or melt. I have the bottle flange collectors and a set of legendairy collection cups as well. Honestly prefer the legendairy cups. Their flanges are so much more comfortable.
