When it comes to pumping, I’ve had my fair share of experiences. I pumped here and there when I had my son, I exclusively pumped for six months for my daughter, and I have helped countless new mothers with their pumping journey as a postpartum doula. One company that I highly recommend is Motif Medical. I’ve tested a lot of products over the past 14 years in this field, and their pumps, milk storage bags, and other products for breastfeeding moms are thoughtfully designed (with help from IBCLCs, midwives, and real mothers), of great quality, and made to support modern motherhood. And another thing that I know firsthand — their customer service is amazing! From wearable to classic pumps that are as sophisticated as they are practical, Motif really has something to offer new and seasoned moms alike.
Recently, I got to check out their newest wearable breast pump. If you’re new to breastfeeding or have been pumping for some time, I highly recommend the Motif Aura Glow Wearable Breast Pump. As we know, pumping can be an around-the-clock job, and the Motif Aura Glow is an amazing option for pumping anytime, anywhere, which is especially ideal for busy moms. Here’s what makes it a standout wearable breast pump in my book!
Motif Aura Glow Wearable Breast Pump

As I mentioned, the Motif Aura Glow is Motif Medical’s newest pump. When I received it, I checked out all of its features and used it with one of my postpartum doula clients to test it in action and see its ease of use and efficiency. After reviewing it, I’m thrilled that this is an option for moms! This wearable breast pump is a top-notch option for moms seeking to make their pumping journey as simple, seamless, and comfortable as possible. Not to mention, it’s insurance-eligible!* Whether you opt to use it as your primary breast pump or a secondary one for when you’re on the go, the Motif Aura Glow has so many features (and accessories!) I think you’ll fall in love with it.
What It Comes With

I was impressed and love that this pump includes so many handy tools and accessories for moms. This is what comes with the Motif Aura Glow Wearable Breast Pump:
- 2 hands-free wearable pumps
- 2 breast shields

- 2 dust covers
- 1 nipple ruler (to ensure you choose the right size flange silicone insert)
- 2 collection containers
- 4 pairs of silicone inserts
- 2 duckbill valves
- 2 USB-C cables (for recharging your pumps)
- 1 cleaning brush
- 1 product manual
What I Love About This Breast Pump
Here’s what my clients and I appreciate the most about the Motif Aura Glow:
1. You Can Use It Day and Night and on the Go
In terms of practicality, the Motif Aura Glow has all the bases covered. Its wearable design allows you to pump hands-free so you can multitask with ease (as modern motherhood often requires us to do).

Also, its built-in night light is a game changer and adds a level of simplicity you’ll be grateful for! This is especially helpful in the evening and during those middle-of-the-night pumping sessions.

My doula client says she usually uses her phone light to see if her milk letdown is happening when pumping at night, but with this breast pump, she doesn’t have to! This is such a cool and convenient tool. I love it! I also love how the brightness level is adjustable.
2. It Features a General Pumping Mode and a Cluster Feeding Mode

The Motif Aura Glow has two custom modes designed by lactation professionals: a general pumping mode and a cluster feeding mode. The general pumping mode has nine suction levels (with four steps each) and simulates typical expression and letdown. Meanwhile, the cluster feeding mode has five suction levels (with five steps each) and is made to help increase your milk supply. What’s neat about the cluster mode is you don’t have to use a timer to get a power pump session in; you can just use this setting instead! Having both of these modes allows you to adjust your pump settings as needed, maximizing both efficiency and output.
3. It Includes Several Silicone Insert Sizes (To Get the Right Fit!)

Getting the right flange size for your pump is so important! This is why I adore how the Motif Aura Glow comes with four pairs of silicone inserts in the following sizes (the silicone breast shields on the pump are 24mm):
It even comes with a nipple ruler to ensure you’re using the right size(s)!

While you can order other sizes if needed, this wide variety of inserts provides an excellent starting point for finding the perfect fit for each breast. This was super helpful for my client, who needed two different sizes. With this wearable pump, she was easily able to wear a size 19mm on one breast and 21mm on the other breast. Most companies don’t offer this many size options. You’d normally have to order and pay for different sizes. This is a very thoughtful and convenient feature!


Also, the size labels on the silicone inserts are much easier to read than those on other competitors. You can clearly see the sizing even when it’s inside the pump, which is nice if you need two different sizes and want to remember which flange goes on which side.
4. It’s Powerful and Efficient
This breast pump has a closed system with backflow protection (to ensure the motor and tubing are kept clean and contamination-free) and a milk spout plug to prevent leaks and spills. Thanks to these components, the Motif Aura Glow ensures you won’t have to waste even a bit of your pumped breast milk. I will say, with the milk spout plug, you do have to really make sure that it is aligned properly for it to close. Because it is silicone, it’s softer, and the plug can pop out more easily, so ensure that it’s properly placed when assembling.

After testing the pump in action, I love that it has hospital-grade suction strength up to 280 mmHg. My client said that she pumped more milk with the Motif Aura Glow than her other wearable pump. That made us both very happy! It also boasts a 90-minute battery life, allowing you to get multiple pumping sessions in before needing to recharge it. That’s the last thing you want to worry about when you need to get a pumping session in.
5. It’s Thoughtfully Designed and User-Friendly
One of my favorite features of this wearable pump is its silicone flanges. This material is so much softer than plastic and makes your pumping session more comfortable. My doula client said she much prefers this one over her others, and I agree!

With thoughtful features like a quiet <45-decibel hum that won’t disturb baby’s sleep (it’s super quiet), the Motif Aura Glow is user-friendly and made with your comfort and experience in mind. Plus, this pump is super easy to assemble and clean. I also like how it’s labeled on the sides — starting at 1 oz. A lot of wearable pumps start their marker at 2 oz, and for moms with newborns, it can be frustrating or discouraging when you’re only pumping 0.5 or 1 oz. But with this pump, you don’t have to guess! I really appreciate products that make being a mom a bit simpler and less complicated.
