K dont pump much bc i SAH. but DS had to fast the other day so pumping was needed.

I have both a bailey nurture III and a madela harmony. Used em both and now my nipples feel like i have rug burn on them (lol easiest way to xplain it).

I adjusted the suction on the electric pump and still...and wasn't pushing the handle all the way on the medela...just looking for some input. thanks!

Maybe you just are not use to the sensation you get after pumping. Your nipples don't feeling the same as when you nurse. I know I had to get use to this feeling but I also had the suction up to high at first as well.

Are the horns big enough for your breasts? The sides of your nipples shouldn't be rubbing on anything.
