Description
The revolutionary Haakaa Silicone Breast pump is a must have for breastfeeding mothers everywhere and really is the simplest way to express anytime, anywhere. It suctions onto the breast and then the pump does the work for you, drawing your milk naturally. So you can use it solely to catch additional milk or while travelling, or it can completely replace your electric pump.
Key Features :
- 100% food grade silicone.
- Saves every drop of breastmilk produced instead of losing it in nursing pads.
- Easy to use, easy to clean.
- Dishwasher safe.
- No cords, batteries or assembly required.
- Suction base ensuring your pump will not fall over.
- 150ml / 5.4oz milk collection capacity.
- BPA, PVC and Phthalate free
How to use:
- Clean and sterilise before first use.
- Suction your breast pump over your nipple. Your nipple should be positioned inside the neck of the pump and feel comfortable. If you need to release some suction simply allow more air into the pump.
- Once the pump is attached gently squeeze the bottom of the pump to encourage let down.
- Once milk begins to flow do not touch your pump and allow the container to fill with milk.
- Remove once your pump is full or you have stopped feeding.
- Place your lid over your pump to stop contamination. Store milk in a glass or silicone container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Any extra milk can be frozen in the freezer. Make sure to label your milk with a date and only fill container ¾ full – allowing room for milk to expand.
- If you are struggling to get your pump going place a warm flannel across the top of your breast and gently massage while your pump is attached. This will encourage let down. Also catch your milk that would otherwise be lost in a breast pad by attaching your pump while feeding your baby on the other side.

FAQ
Q: Is the Haakaa Silicone Pump Manual or Electric?
A: Neither! It's totally unique. The Haakaa works by using powerful suction to help draw the milk out of your breast as a hands-free, non-electric method.
Q: How long should I leave the Haakaa Silicone Pump on for?
A: Attach your pump and leave leave it to work its magic for 5-10 minutes. There's no need to continue pumping like a hand or manual pump
Q: How do I clean the Haakaa silicone pump?
A: Clean after each use. It is recommended that you clean and sterilise your Haakaa Breast Pump with any steam sterilising system or by boiling in water for 3-5 minutes.
Q: I'm experiencing pain when expressing with my Haakaa pump. Why might this be?
A: Pain may be caused by using too much suction when expressing. When you attach the pump, squeeze the bottom of the pump, place it onto the nipple and then release. The harder you squeeze, the stronger the suction is.
Q: My pump loses suction. Why is this?
A: As your body changes post-birth, he suction strength you may need needed changes too. The most effective way to attach is to fold the flange back, squeeze the bottom of the pump, centre it onto your nipple, unfold the flange and release. Be aware that the more you squeeze the bottom of the pump, the stronger the suction. Your nipple should be in the centre of the Flange and not touching the Silicone Walls. Ensure you check your Pump for any small holes that could cause air to escape to prevent poor suction. You should also assist your breast by holding or cupping it in one hand while attaching the pump in the other to get a centre onto your breast and allow the pump to grasp a bigger area. If you still find that the pump won't suction on properly, it may be that the silicone material has worn and lost its suction. Sometimes this can happen depending how often it is used and sterilised, as well as the method of how it's washed and sterilised – the more you sterilise your pump, the faster it will lose its suction. Some mums find they need to replace their pumps after a few months while others have theirs for years depending on these factors.
Featured Review:
- "Brilliant product. First time I used it I managed 2 1/2oz (measured in storage bags) whereas I have never even managed 1oz with other devices- plus there is no hard work involved. I used it without baby feeding on the other side so will be interested to see if it works even better like that. Would really recommend!" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Pat

Must have!
IN LOVE WITH THIS ITEM! I found out about this in my breastfeeding support group, and bought it to try since it was so inexpsensive. Now I suggest it to every expecting or breastfeeding mother. It is so easy to use and I wish I had it from the start of my journey!

Life saver!!
I am trying to exclusively breastfeed on demand and it's hard at times so my husband likes to help out with some feedings since his work schedule allows him to be home and awake while I sleep. I have a dual electric breast pump but find it uncomfortable to try and hold the sheilds in the correct spot to not leak everywhere. The Haakaa makes it easy to feed on one breast and just attach and leave it to collect on the other side. On my first use I got 2oz in 10 minuets. I will continue to use my electric pump to help with my milk supply but this is great for using while feeding.

Perfect!
Perfect for catching extra milk that would otherwise simply leak out and be lost onto a cloth. I've almost effortlessly collected 1-5oz/day, which adds up to a nice extra little freezer stash without the work of an electric pump.
-
Worth a try!
I wish I had this sooner! It's definitely a worthy investment to keep your milk supply up and to easily be able to sock away extra milk in the freezer without having to mess with an electric pump while trying to navigate baby on the other side.
-
Love this!
Love this! It won't replace your electric pump if you pump full time but I use it to build a small freezer stash while EBF. It's so easy to clean and great to throw in your purse!
-
Great pump!!
Great pump. I was sort of skeptical about this pump when I first heard about it because I was like how does it stay on your boob. I love the fact that you can use it on one side while nursing on the other. No more wasted letdown milk. I highly recommend this product.

Pumping hack!
This thing makes occasionally saving up some extra milk a breeze! I hated using the pump and baby girl never seemed to allot me the time to do so. Now, she can eat and I can collect extra milk at the same time! I wish I had know about this when baby was really little and I was a leaky mess!! It's a lil more challenging to use with a 10 month old who grabs everything she can get her hands on ;)

5.0 out of 5 starsPer Breast Feeding Daughter - it works pretty darn good!
I bought this for my daughter, as she wanted to try this during breast feeding her new baby girl. It came very quickly, which was GREAT! I took it to her and as she nursed on one side, the pump was very slowly "collecting" a steady supply of "drops". With the slight suction she had on it, it was not depleting her milk on that side, but it was collecting what normally would have been lost anyway. The first time used she got 3 oz. I'd say it a win win!!
-
Worth it!
This item is perfect to collect milk while feeding the baby on the other side it works amazingly I haven't been hooked up to a breast pump machine yet and have managed to collect 14 bags in my spare time when it's convenient at home while I feed the baby. Very easy to maintain and clean. The section works even on smaller chest sizes. However I noticed better suction when I was more engorged

Perfect!
This is the perfect tool for mom's who don't need a big stash and don't have time to hook up to a pump! I use this while nursing in the mornings and get around 1-2 ounce from the opposite side I nurse on. I get more with this then I ever did pumping as I have trouble letting down with a pump. I have a small perfect stash for when I want to leave the little one. I also have a 2 year old so pumping connected to a wall- not really possible. This thing has saved me!
