Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Haakaa Shell Wearable Silicone Breast Pump function as both a pump and a milk collector?
The Haakaa Shell Wearable Silicone Breast Pump serves a dual purpose:
As a Pump: By pressing the back of the Shell and attaching it to your breast, it creates continuous natural suction, allowing for hands-free milk expression.
