The Haakaa Manual Breast Pump 150ml with Flower Stopper, Silicone Lid & Silicone Strap Set is a complete, convenient kit for breastfeeding moms. Made from high-quality 100% food-grade silicone, this manual pump uses gentle suction to collect milk from the opposite breast while nursing or to express milk discreetly at any time. The 150ml capacity is perfect for building a small stash, and the included accessories make it leakproof and portable for on-the-go use.
Haakaa Manual Breast Pump 150ml Set: Complete and Leakproof
This set includes a 5oz/150ml breast pump, a flower stopper (for extra leak protection), a silicone lid (to keep the pump clean), and a silicone strap (for carrying and hanging). The pump is designed to accommodate different breast sizes and provides a comfortable, effective pumping experience.
How to Keep Your Haakaa Pump from Falling Off While Nursing
The pump's suction holds it in place, but to prevent it from falling off, ensure a good seal by centering the flange over your nipple and pressing to create suction. You can also use the silicone strap to secure the pump to your bra or clothing for extra security. If you feel suction weakening, re-center the flange and press again.
Using the Haakaa Pump with the Strap
The silicone strap is versatile: you can loop it through the notches on the pump and then attach it to your bra strap or around your arm, ensuring the pump stays in place while you move. You can also use it to hang the pump to dry after washing.
Why Might the Pump Lose Suction?
Suction can be lost if the flange isn't aligned properly, if the silicone is oily or wet, or if there's a kink in the pump. Ensure the pump is clean and dry before use, and always check that the flange is fully sealed against the skin.
How to Get a Better Seal with the Haakaa Pump
To improve the seal, ensure your breast and the flange are clean and dry. Pull the pump away slightly and then press it against your breast to create a stronger suction. You can also fold the flange lips outward while applying, then release to create a tighter seal.
Heat and Freeze Resistant
This pump can be placed in the freezer to store colostrum or milk, and you can warm it directly in a bowl of warm water without transferring milk to another container. This avoids any loss of milk and makes cleaning easier.
Easy to Clean
All parts are easy to disassemble and clean with mild soap and water or in the dishwasher (top rack). Always sterilize before first use and regularly thereafter.
