NUK Soft & Easy Manual breast pump

A breast pump is a mechanical way of collecting milk and is used either when the mother is unable to breastfeed on her own or when it is necessary, for any reason, to separate the newborn, most often when the mother wants to return to work.

The specific "Soft & Easy", from the Nuk company, is manual, fits securely to the chest creating a natural suction. It also has an integrated bottle for collecting the milk while it is easily cleaned and sterilized.
How milk is stored:It is best to offer the milk directly to the infant after it has been pumped. If the mother wants to store the milk, she can keep it in the refrigerator, in a baby bottle, for up to 5 days or freeze it for up to 6 months in a sterile glass bottle. Milk can stay at room temperature for up to 6 hours.
