Haakaa Silicone Milk Collector, 75 ml Capacity

Product Information

However, it’s not a breast pump in the way that a manual like the Medela Harmony, or and electric pump like the Spectra S1, are - so we don’t think it’s fair to compare it to these. The Ladybug will only collect milk that would have leaked anyway. It won't draw out any extra milk.

The colostrum is rich in nutrients, high in protein and low in fat, it is easily absorbed by the newborn. Preparing to collect them in advance because it has great benefit for your baby. The vent also helps keep the air inside of the collector fresh, preventing moisture from accumulating and stopping any nipple problems from developing. The product is also compatible with any nursing bra you may own, so don’t worry about appearances too much, Elvie has got you covered.

You can wear the Ladybug on the other side while you're breastfeeding to catch your letdown or wear one on each breast inside your bra as you carry on with your day. It is completely portable and has small feet on the bottom to stand upright on any flat surface, preventing spills after use. The point of the holes is to help prevent moisture buildup within the shells and to help keep nipples from becoming irritated. The difference between these and the regular shells is the addition of a plug for the air vent. This acts as an added safety valve for when the milk collectors might get a bit too close to full capacity.

And finally, unlike other milk collection shells on this list, their design helps your nipples rest – a definite benefit as sometimes they might be sore and need a break after a solid session with your manual or electric breast pump.As I said, it can be very discreet which is the reason I did buy this, I could place it inside of my bra while at church where I can’t necessarily use the regular size haakaa silicone pump. Sterilize (First Use): Before using the Haakaa for the first time, it’s essential to sterilize it. You can either boil it in water for 2-3 minutes or use a sterilization method recommended for baby products. This ensures it’s clean and safe for your little one. They still perform the purpose all collectors are made for, which is to help prevent any leak spots from appearing on your clothes. If you have a significant amount of breast milk leakage you know how important it is to capture every precious drop of your liquid gold. The ladybug silicone breast milk collector has a 75 ml capacity for a strong milk supply and collects the natural letdown milk with gentle suction.
