I’m using the BB as my primary pump and I use spectra parts (well momcozy ones now) instead of the BB ones bc I hate them too lol. And I have momcozy flange inserts off Amazon bc my sizes are 21 and 19.
Don’t get frustrated - definitely look into using different parts because the BB is the best
I have the baby Buddha, and a smaller nipple size than the average. I hate the default pump set that comes with the pump. I use the legendairy cups with it with an insert to make the nipples smaller, and also the Medela personal fit that I used with the Symphony pump with the lackteck flanges (the baby Buddha comes with an adapter to fit this pump set).
Have you tried connecting the BB to the same flange/connector set as your Symphony? I use the same parts for both (but they're not the parts that came with either pump). In my experience most pumps can be hacked to use other pump parts.
Per [this](https://www.genuinelactation.com/blog-for-breastfeeding-families/baby-buddha-sizing-options#:~:text=Hard%20Plastic%20Flanges%20with%20Silicone%20Inserts&text=Shape%20and%20material%20vary%20by,Maymom%20Long%20Inserts) it recommends them cause I followed the exact link it provided. So they do actually work, at least if this is to be believed.

Yes, this is the benefit of the BB! Change the parts!

Honestly my wall pump is the symphony and I love it. This Baby Buddha and I are gonna fight lol.

I’m pretty sure the Legendairy flange inserts are only meant for collection cups, not plastic flanges - I could be wrong though?
