*Haakaa Silicone Breast Pump with Suction Base - 4 oz/100mL

This is such a vital thing to have while breastfeeding, especially for the first few months. I have exclusively breastfed my 4 kids, but need a hand pump for when I was too engorged for good latching, when I needed relief, when I needed to make up a quick bottle, for travelling, or for helping release clogged ducts. I recommend anyone breastfeeding has one.

I loved this pump because It was so easy to put on and let it catch my forceful let down, especially when I was super engorged in the beginning, so that baby isn't getting a firehose in the face. I caught lots of milk that way that would've otherwise been wasted! It also resulted in less need for changing nursing pads or shirts as it would catch all the milk that would've gone into them!

I had been struggling with oversupply and messy letdowns on my opposite side during feeding until I started using the Haakaa! It�s super easy to use, you can use it anywhere and the best part is I am now collecting upwards of 30oz a day that would have been wasted. I couldn�t live without my Haakaa now!

I really wanted to love this pump, but have found it a little difficult to get a good suction where I'm not worried that it's going to fall off and spill milk everywhere. It's great to catch the let-down to bag/save for another day, but did find it awkward and inefficient to pump a full bottle's worth of milk. With that being said, I read many positive reviews of this pump before purchasing so perhaps a little more practice is needed on my part!
