Why use a Mammia breast pump?
The Mammia breast pump has been designed to meet the needs of moms who want to combine breastfeeding with practicality. Whether you want to express your milk to give a bottle to your baby while you’re away or to stimulate your production, here’s why the Mammia breast pump is right for you :
Comfort : Our breast pumps feature soft silicone cushions to prevent irritation and make use more comfortable, even over extended periods.
Efficiency : Thanks to its double-phase suction technology, the Mammia breast pump mimics the natural sucking of a baby, allowing for quick stimulation of milk production and maximizing the amount expressed in less time.
Portability : Our portable and compact models allow you to pump your milk wherever you are, whether at home, in the office, or on the go.

How to use a Mammia breast pump:
Step-by-step guide
Preparation : Make sure you are settled in a calm and comfortable place. If possible, apply a warm compress to your breasts before starting to help stimulate the milk ejection reflex.
Assembling the breast pump : Follow the instructions provided with your Mammia breast pump to correctly assemble the parts. Ensure everything is clean and sterilized before use.
Placement : Position the silicone cushion on your breast, making sure your nipple is centered in the opening. A good position ensures better comfort and more effective expression.
Intensity adjustment: The Mammia breast pump offers different intensity levels to suit your needs. Start with a gentle suction to mimic the initial stimulating suck of the baby, then gradually increase the intensity for optimal expression.
Duration of use : Pump your milk for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until you feel that your breasts are empty. If you are using an electric breast pump, you can adjust the settings for a more comfortable experience.
Milk storage : After each session, pour your milk into a bottle or a storage bag. Be sure to label the milk with the date and time for future use. Breast milk can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and in the freezer for several months
