So my breast pump fit feels fine when I start out. Then as I'm pumping my nipple swells and starts to rub the inside of the flange. Does it with every size flange. I don't know what to do.

What's the largest size you've used

I've used a 30.5, which pulls in areola. The 22 I just got starts out great, doesn't pull in areola. But once I've been pumping a few minutes my nipple swells and is rubbing the sides

I don't know what to do about it.

Maybe try putting coconut oil or nipple balm on the inside of the flanges, that way when your nipple rubs it won't irritate it as much. That's what I do.

It doesn't even irritate it. I just know that having the wrong fit may impact pumping later on.

try doing a slower pump and not a high setting mine did this when the suction was to high.
