Medela silicone milk collector

Medela silicone milk collector.

The Medela silicone milk collector is a handy accessory for breastfeeding mums who want to collect the breast milk that leaks naturally during a feed. Placed on the opposite breast to the one baby is feeding from, it catches milk that would otherwise be lost, especially during the let-down reflex.

Made from soft, gentle food-grade silicone, this breast milk collector is comfortable and discreet to use. Its compact, lightweight design makes it easy to use at home or on the go.

A great help against wasting breast milk

While breastfeeding, milk often leaks spontaneously from the breast that is not being fed from. The Medela milk collector lets you collect this milk simply, without needing an electric or manual breast pump.

It can be particularly useful for mums who want to gradually build up a small stock of breast milk or simply avoid losing milk during feeds.

Soft, comfortable silicone

Made from food-grade silicone, the Medela milk collector is gentle on the skin. It sits gently on the breast thanks to light natural suction, which keeps it in place during breastfeeding.

Its one-piece design also gives an easy-to-clean surface and limits hard-to-reach areas where milk residue could build up.

Leak protection and secure storage

To make it easier to carry and prevent spills, the milk collector comes with a stopper and a lid. Its suction base also lets you stand it steadily on a flat surface between uses.

This design is particularly practical for mums who want to collect their milk and then move it without easily spilling the contents.

Compact and discreet to go everywhere with mum

Thanks to its light, space-saving design, the Medela silicone milk collector slips easily into a diaper bag or a breastfeeding bag.

It works without electricity, without batteries and without noise: an ideal solution for collecting your milk discreetly at home, at work or when out and about.

Easy to clean

The collector's simple design makes everyday care easy. It can be washed by hand or in the dishwasher, according to the manufacturer's recommendations, and can also be sterilised.

Regular cleaning after each use is recommended to maintain good hygiene when collecting breast milk.

3. While baby feeds on the other breast, the milk that leaks spontaneously is collected in the reservoir.

6. Clean the collector thoroughly after use.

Milk collector or breast pump: what is the difference?

A milk collector and a breast pump do not have the same function.

The milk collector is mainly designed to catch milk that leaks spontaneously, especially during a feed. It therefore does not replace a breast pump when a mum wants to actively stimulate the breast and express a set amount of milk.

It is a particularly useful accessory for collecting milk lost through leaks or the let-down reflex, without interrupting baby's feed.

When to use the milk collector

The Medela breast milk collector can be useful:

• During the first weeks of breastfeeding

• When milk leaks spontaneously from the opposite breast

• In case of breast milk leaks

• To collect milk during feeds

• To gradually build up a small stock

• At home or on the go

• As a complement to a breast pump
