One-piece silicone, suction-only, catches let-down. The most affordable starter pump under $20.
💸 Best supplement
Available at haakaa.com.au and Amazon. The 'Gen 2' has a stopper to prevent tipping. Pair with a Haakaa cap for storage in the fridge.
The Haakaa Silicone Manual Pump is a passive suction device — you attach it to the breast opposite the one baby is nursing on, and the suction catches the letdown that would otherwise spill into a nursing pad. Yield is 1.5-2.5 oz per session for free. It's not a primary pump, but it's the best supplement available — and at $13-20, every breastfeeding mom should own one.
Pros
- $13-20 is unbeatable for what it does
- No moving parts, dishwasher-safe
- Captures letdown that would otherwise waste
Cons
- Not a primary pump
- Requires suction to your breast (some find uncomfortable)
