Directions 

  1. Sterilise your pump by boiling in water for 2-3 minutes.
  2. Place the pump flange over your nipple – make sure your nipple is centred comfortably in the neck of the pump.
  3. Apply suction – you may need to adjust the position of your pump a couple of times. Once the pump is secure and comfortable, apply suction by squeezing the base of the pump to start the flow of milk.
  4. Once milk begins to flow, simply leave the pump alone to do its thing!
  5. When the pump is full, empty into a safe storage container and reposition.

Tips: Encourage let-down by placing a warm flannel on top of your breast and massaging gently. While your child is feeding, attach your Haakaa pump to the other breast to catch precious milk that would otherwise be lost in a nursing pad.

Frequently asked questions

How to use a Haakaa pump?
  1. Before using a Haakaa pump, it is recommended to sterilise it by boiling in water for 2-3 mins (if you have a steam steriliser, you can use this if you prefer).
  2. Place the pump flange over your nipple - make sure your nipple is centred comfortably in the neck of the pump. You can either fold the flange back and push the body of the pump to achieve a stronger suction or just push the air out by squeezing the pump's body without folding the flange back to get a lighter suction. Remember, the more air you squeeze out, the stronger the suction.
  3. Apply suction - you may need to adjust the position of your pump a couple of times. Once the pump is secure and comfortable, apply suction by squeezing the base of the pump to start the flow of the milk. Once milk starts to flow, leave the pump alone to do its thing.
  4. If milk flow slows down or you have expressed your desired amount, detach the pump from your breast and safely store your milk.
Can you catch both foremilk and hindmilk when expressing using our Haakaa breast pumps?
The Haakaa Silicone Breast Pump was originally designed as a manual pump for mums, but can also be used as a tool to catch letdown. When we breastfeed from one side, we generally have a letdown from the breast on the opposite side - though this milk is often wasted through leakage into a breast pad or in your bra. Haakaa pumps are perfect for capturing your leakage, ensuring it doesn’t go to waste. Simply pop on your pump at the beginning of a feed for a few mins to catch your precious liquid gold! Once your initial letdown has slowed, you can then remove your pump. You will likely capture mainly foremilk in these first few minutes (which is 100% fine!). If you want to use the pump to empty your breast, simply leave it on until the breast is drained to get both fore and hindmilk (usually about 10-12 mins).
What are the benefits of using a Haakaa pump?
1. Relieves engorged and uncomfortable breasts
2. Builds a breastmilk stash
3. Fantastic on-the-go pumping option
4. No electricity or charging needed
5. Easy to clean
6. Catches letdown
7. Pain-free if applied correctly
8. One-piece silicone
Why am I not getting enough milk?
There can be different reasons for this. A low milk supply can result from not pumping enough, pumping too soon after a feeding session or skipping a feed. You may also have a low supply if you're using a suction level that is not suitable or comfortable for you or even if you simply require more hydration throughout the day. Being stressed or under pressure can also affect your supply or the amount you express in a session.
How to clean and disinfect the Haakaa pump?
We strongly recommend cleaning your Haakaa pump with warm, soapy water and then sterilising it with any steam sterilising system or by boiling in water for 2-3 mins. Do not use any bleach-based agents or sterilising tablets to clean this product, as this could affect the lifespan of the pump. It is also not recommended to use UV sterilisers to clean the pump, as they may impact the lifespan of your pump as well.
