haakaa Manual Breast Pump & Ladybug Breast Milk Collector Combo for Collecting Breastmilk, BPA Free

Product Information

With the plug closed, press down on the back of the Ladybug and centre the main opening over your nipple. While they are similar (both the Elvie Curve and the Catch are silicone, have holes for your nipples, and can go in your bra), the difference is that the Catch does not have suction and the Curve does. I didn’t realise how much let down was coming out before I bought it and I wish I bought this earlier to save all that milk! Yesterday we ran errands during a feed window so I gave him 4oz I had haaked earlier in the day in a bottle then stuck the haaka on driving home under my hoodie.

I notice that when I first put in it on the boob that baby is not feeding on, it looks like watery foremilk. Even if you’re using a double electric pump, there are sometimes situations where it makes sense to single pump. It has “feet” on the bottom that make it more secure (and spilling less likely) when placing on a counter or table.another thing is I don't sleep with a bra, and most of my hardcore letdowns are at night and in the morning, it's a mess. When the collector is full or you've collected the desired amount of milk, detach the collector from your breast. Here’s a complete review of two of the best wearable manual pumps – the Elvie Curve and the Haakaa Ladybug.

We are proud to support a number of charities who support mothers and their families as they transition into parenthood. Remove the plug on the top of the collector and pour your milk through the hole into a safe storage container. I have a heavy supply, but between the ladybug and the 2 haakaas I bought, we waste no milk in this house and generate about 5-6oz minimum extra everyday exclusively breastfeeding, no pumping at all unless I get engorged. The one-piece design attaches to your breast with suction and sits securely and discreetly in your bra.We strongly recommend cleaning and sterilising your Silicone Milk Collector with any steam sterilising system or by boiling in water for 2-3 minutes.
