The Haakaa Oral Syringe is the perfect way to administer medicine, milk and liquid diets to premature or just plain fussy babies in a mess and waste-free way. Our dual-angled ports on either side of the nipple shoot liquid into the sides of your little one's mouth instead of the back of their throat to greatly reduce the risk of choking!

When feeding a baby using a traditional syringe, you have to use a combination of the hard nib (which could damage your baby’s delicate mouth) and your finger to make it work. The Haakaa Oral Syringe makes things easier by providing a soft silicone nipple for babies to suck on when they feed!  

Features

  • 100% food-grade silicone pacifier-shaped teat is more easily accepted by babies.
  • Durable, non-toxic, BPA, PVC and phthalate-free.
  • Effortless one-hand operation - simply push to feed & control flow.
  • Soft shield prevents potential choking hazards.
  • Clearly marked measuring cup ensures accurate dispensing.
  • Stands upright, making it convenient to hold and place between uses.
  • Easy-care detachable design - safe in dishwashers, sterilisers and boiling water.

Directions

  1. Measure the proper dose of liquid in the measuring cup, making sure the cup is on a flat, stable surface.
  2. Submerge syringe tip in liquid, then pull the plunger back to fill. Double-check the amount.
  3. Once you have drawn the required amount of liquid, place the syringe tip inside the opening of the silicone teat and push in firmly to attach. NOTE: Take care not to push down on plunger while attaching teat.
  4. Adjust the silicone teat so that the two holes are facing towards the baby's cheeks before feeding.

PLEASE NOTE: The syringe tip is designed to be harder to attach to prevent it falling off. ALWAYS follow your doctor's or the manufacturer's dosage recommendations.

Cleaning & Care

Disassemble and wash before and after each use. Always sterilise after any illness. Although dishwasher safe, we recommend hand washing in warm soapy water, then rinsing and drying thoroughly. Do not use any bleach-based cleaners or tablets to clean or sterilise your Haakaa products. To sterilise, use a steam steriliser or boil in water for 2-3 minutes. Silicone may absorb the colours of liquids it comes in contact with. To minimise discolouring, wash immediately after use. Store product in a cool, dry place and avoid direct sunlight.

  • Always use this product with adult supervision.
  • Check product condition regularly. Throw away at the first signs of damage or weakness.
  • Due to the risk of strangulation, never tie syringe around child's neck.
  • Always check liquid temperature before feeding.
  • Do not store near any sharp objects. Hard objects may scratch the surface.
  • This product is not a toy. Do not use this product for anything other than its intended use.
  • Keep out of reach of children and pets when not in use.

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.
