To choose a manual milk pump, define the purposes and frequency of use. Inexpensive and simple models will be suitable for infrequent application. If you want to decant milk constantly, then give preference to more difficult, but convenient models.
Instruction
1. If you decided to choose a manual milk pump, then for a start study all existing types. The first of them – pompovy. It consists of the rubber pear connected to a plastic funnel. Due to compression of pear the hand creates a vacuum under the influence of which milk is allocated from a nipple. Pluses of such adaptation – the low price and simplicity of the device and use. Shortcomings: the increased risk of traumatizing a nipple, impossibility to collect a large number of milk due to the lack of capacity and also need of application of considerable efforts. One of subspecies of pompovy milk pumps is the milk pump with pear. From simple pompovy it differs in existence of a small bottle for gathering milk. The device is more difficult, but shortcomings same.
2. The second look – a spray milk pump. It consists of two cylinders. One is located in another and at the movement creates a vacuum. Device extremely simple, low price. But there is a risk of formation of cracks on nipples at long or regular use. Besides, to use such milk pump quite difficult as efforts of both hands are required.
3. If you want to choose a convenient manual milk pump, then pay attention to piston. The vacuum is created by means of the piston. Adaptation almost silently works. The convenient handle allows to use only one hand and at the same time to minimize efforts. Using this look, it is possible to imitate sosatelny movements of the child and by that to stimulate development of milk. The price of such milk pumps is quite big, but it is possible to use them regularly as the risk of traumatizing nipples is minimum. Some models are equipped with special silicone slips with convex petals. These petals allow to stimulate in addition a nipple and to increase amount of the allocated milk.
4. How to choose a manual milk pump? Everything depends on frequency and the purposes of use. If you plan to decant milk constantly and to feed with it the kid from a small bottle, then it is better to choose the most convenient piston milk pump. If use of such adaptation is rare, then it is possible to get a pompovy or spray milk pump. In that case it is worth giving preference to adaptation with pear, it is more comfortable in use.
