Replacement pump parts

redwood807

Hey ladies!

I had a question regarding pump parts. I have a Medela In Style Advanced pump that I used with DD. I loaned it to a good friend when she had her little girl and I got it back a couple of months ago.  Now, the pump works fine and the parts all seem to be in good shape; i.e breastshields, connectors, membranes and valves, and tubes. However, for sanitary purposes I wanted to replace the parts that actually come into contact with the breastmilk.  I've gotten the shields, connectors, membrances and valves, but I can't seem to find the tubing.

I know this part doesn't really come into contact with the BM but they appear to have some moisture in them. Can I get that out? Should I just replace them? BRU& BBB tell me that Medela doesn't sell the tubing. I find that hard to believe. Do I need to hunt in a specialty/local store?

What do you think?

Thanks
