Haakaa Silicone Breastfeeding Manual Breast Pump Milk Pump 100% Food Grade Silicone BPA PVC and Phthalate Free | 4 oz Capacity

Excellent alternative to electric pumps! I had been struggling with my electric pump for weeks before deciding to try the Haakaa. The difference is incredible - in less than 2 minutes using gentle suction in the late afternoon, I collected more milk than I typically get from 20 minutes with my electric pump during morning sessions (when my supply is naturally highest).The Haakaa is so much easier to use, significantly more comfortable, and requires minimal cleanup compared to my electric pump. The simplicity and effectiveness have been game-changing for my pumping routine. Highly recommend to any breastfeeding parent looking for a reliable, low-maintenance option!

This thing was a LIFE SAVER during my maternity leave! My son started sleeping through the night pretty early on (by 4 weeks), so by the time he would wake up at 5:30am for his first feeding I was SO swollen and full that he would only take one side. This stressed me out so much because I couldn't just leave the other side still full...so I would either be crying trying to get him to wake up to eat the other side, or have to hook up the electric breast pump (which I HATED because there were so many parts to clean, and that would be an extra 20 minutes before I could go back to sleep).The Haakaa saved me for 2 reasons1) I needed to start a freezer stash for when I returned back to work at 8 weeks and this allowed me to do so without having to pump (the pediatrician suggested pumping AFTER his feedings to build my supply....who has time for that?!?! I would have been literally a milking cow the entire day).2) It's literally effortless with zero pain and only ONE part that cleaned easily.I stumbled across this on a blog by accident when I was trying to figure out how to build my freezer stash before returning to work without losing my mind and I will never be more thankful for a product. I would use this for the first 2 feeding of the morning (since you're fullest in the morning) and would have 4-6oz a day to put away in the freezer.All you have to do is squeeze the base, put on breast you aren't feeding from and release base to get it to suction to your boob. The suction holds it in place. Then have your baby feed from the other side and it will trigger your let down on the side the Haakaa is suctioned to!!!!!!!Only negatives (but not bad enough to not warrant this a 5 star product) is that if you don't pay attention, it can lose suction and come off (I just kept an eye on it and whenever it started to lose suction I would give it another squeeze to reestablish suction). Second is that is does not fully drain you like an electric pump would, but is enough to relieve you so you can go back to sleep (or for the second morning feeding, my son was usually awake enough that I would let him feed on that side after I used the Haakaa).Get this....you won't regret it!!!!!

To the struggling breastfeeding mom... this is it!!! I have used every trick in the book to increase my milk supply. I'm talking teas, cookies, pills, herbal drops, shakes, more water, more calories, more breastfeeding friendly foods...you name it. And this worked to increase my milk literally overnight. And now, day 3, my breasts are heavier and full of milk. I pump milk twice a day and that did the trick.I was so sad that my baby boy was fussy at feeding times because I wasn't producing a lot of milk. I also tried formula but he didn't like it and wouldn't drink it. So I knew it was on me to quickly figure out a way to increase my milk supply. But each day it was increasing!The suction can be adjusted to very strong or a softer suction. I also love that it's one unit that's easy to clean and store. I prefer to wash mine with soap, sterilize it in a sanitizing bag for breast pump parts and store it in a cup next to my bed. No more cords from breastpumps and washing what feels like a hundred pieces.I'm not saying I'll never use an electric pump again but for the season I'm in now with my newborn and feeling exhausted... this is the easiest route until he's able to be more independent (crawling and playing). Then I will incorporate my electric pump again.On a last note: I do believe my milk supply was low due to my son's soft latch. He never latched on as strong as my daughters did. And I believe that's why my milk was super low despite trying almost everything to increase it. The super strong suction, on my Haakaa, helped my body produce more milk - fast!

Really awesome product! First time mom here and I’m working out the kinks of breastfeeding and pumping! The pediatrician recommended this and I’m only two weeks post partum and I get more than an ounce while baby is on other breast. Works very well, not painful or anything and stays in place.

Perfect for a mother who is breastfeeding to save from wasting milk. Suctions on you breast perfectly and catches and leakage with breast feeding with the other one.

I love using this Haakaa manual pump! It’s really convenient for expressing and storing my breast milk. The silicone is soft and gentle, making it comfortable to use, and it’s so easy to clean. A must-have for any breastfeeding mom looking for a simple, effective solution.

Perfect for the feedings when he doesn’t eat of both breast or doesn’t quite finish this can catch anything that’s still leaking. Great portability and easy to clean
