As a mom who's been through the breastfeeding struggle, I can honestly say this little silicone pump has been a lifesaver. The first time I used it during a midnight feeding session, I couldn't believe how much milk I collected from my other breast - milk that would've otherwise soaked into nursing pads!
What surprised me most was how effective the suction is. Unlike my bulky electric pump that requires massaging and constant adjustment, this just stays put while I nurse. The first time I got 2oz effortlessly while feeding my baby, I nearly cried - that's precious liquid gold for my freezer stash!
The included strap is genius for active babies (mine kicks like a soccer player). Even when he connects with a solid kick, the pump stays suctioned thanks to the strap acting as backup. And cleaning? A dream compared to all those electric pump parts - just soap and water!
Pro tip: Flip the top edge back before applying for stronger suction. This trick helped me go from collecting drops to ounces during each session. Now I use it religiously during morning feeds when I'm most engorged.
The only minor flaw is the dust lid doesn't stay on well, but the stopper works perfectly for storage. For the price and results? Absolute must-have for any breastfeeding mom.
