If you need to ramp up supply and stimulation, mechanical pumping with repeated suction at about 54 sucks per minute is best. The Haakaa alone can’t provide the stimulation needed to increase supply.
@@DoneNaturally hopefully she watched the video and she means both together (using the Hakka to collect precious milk from dripping “down the drain” during a feed and pumping to increase supply.
That’s actually not true. If someone has a Low supply they need to depend on an electric Breastpump especially if this is after the first couple of weeks postpartum. It’s absolutely a device that needs to be used under the guidance of an IBCLC.
Ordered one of these before baby #3 comes in a few weeks due to seeing so many women using/recommending these, and I am SO glad I came across this video before my first use.
Thank you so much for expert explanation! That's exactly how I understand this product and that was my question. If I use Haakaa not just like a 'Collector' my body is producing more milk for no reason...
I was looking at a Haakah today. So glad I did not get it as my breast is engorged and my baby are struggeling with reflux and winds because of my breasts being do engorged and releasing too much milk into her mouth. Thank you for this video.
Thank you for this video. My youngest is 14 and I’m getting ready for a new baby. So many new gadgets and info. I loved my manual pump 14 years ago so I though it was a “pump”. I will just stick with my old method!!
This is very helpful and explains my engorgement and my baby choking on my overflow. I may have over looked this, but it would be helpful to time stamp the actual explanation of the problem. It was around 5 minutes in the video.
My baby is a NICU baby. They didnt let me hold or breastfeed him for a week, only bottle feed. He's used to free flowing bottles. Meanwhile im pumping 2-3 hours, rented the hospital medela, hydrated, & it takes 20 minutes to make not even 2 oz. When he did get to breastfeed he got too frustrated, was hungry, & didnt want me. I understand what your saying but I need free flow, I need let down or else breastfeeding will just be out of the window for me. I dont want to solely pump for 2 years, its cold & detaching. I want the milk to flow now. And the constant pumping, hydrating, fennel tea, oatmeal, & almonds arent doing it for me.
I can’t believe you only have a few thousand subscribers. Your videos are soooo good. You have helped me so much in my lactation journey. Thank you 🙏🏻😊
These were actually really helpful for me for exactly the reasons you say against them with my babies. My babies are very small and my nipples are the size of my damn thumb. My babies can not latch well for a good few months and have to grow into it. Those first few months these causing the extra milk and stronger let-down meant my babies could still nurse effectively without getting too stressed out or not gaining enough or injury to my nipples. They would learn how to latch properly when having comfort sessions as they were calmer and more patient than true hungry sessions, and everyone was happy. This time around (4th baby) we're going to use the caught milk so that past the initial feeding stages my older kids can bottle feed from time to time or dad can give baby some milk if I'm having a shower or something and will just nurse and/or pump again after.
I’m pregnant for the first time and have been so curious about this product. This is very good information i can tell you have talked to a lot of frustrated mommas over this product! It’s so hyped up on social media. My mom had 2 babies and then twins and was able to breast feed all of us until we didn’t want it anymore around 10-12 months old so I don’t think I’ll have a supply issue. this is really good information and if I know anyone curious about this product I will send them your way! Thank you :)
Congratulations!!! It’s definitely not a necessity despite its successful marketing campaign. Marketing makes expectant and new parents they need all sorts of things when really they don’t. 🤗
@@DoneNaturally I have noticed the fast living agenda is strong in the new parent world! We’ve been having babies since the beginning of time and they never used these products why do we need them now?! I’m definitely a minimalist and try to find things I actually need.
be careful with it - Don't use it WHILE your baby is feeding! it can lead to hyperlactation very very quickly. (Lactation consultant, midwife and university professor in Lactation medicine speaking here. I deal with SO many problems with these things :(
As a parent of a 5 month baby that gets pissy and impatient now because my letdown isn’t as strong as it was in the first 8 weeks, I can only hope this boosts my letdown. I spend so much of the day feeling like my boobs are empty and deflated now when I started off not being able to put my arms down and having to pump off the extra to relieve the pain (sometimes 15oz a day at 8 days pp) DD has always been a gannet but now my flow is established she’s always fussy at the breast when the milk flow is slow 😂
this explains all of my problems lol...unfortunately this came out 2 months after my daughter was born and I ended up exclusively pumping from 2 months to the present time. So sad that this info is not well known across the board - none of my LC's mentioned anything like this at any point (was also dealing with my anatomy, a tongue/lip tied baby and major latch issues). Sharing your page with others for sure! I have learned so much from every video you make
I can understand that perspective. I just also work with moms who have had so much painful trouble with oversupply. It sounds delightful, but can cause Feeding aversions, constant engorgement, reoccurrence of mastitis and plugs and for some…weaning Bc it’s so stressful for and baby.
Thank you for acknowledging the misery I experience as a breastfeeder with hyper lactation. I literally have to lay flat for feedings so my kiddo doesn't drown 😂 I've never used a Haaka but was considering it. Now I definitely won't be using it except how you've said to 😂 thank you!
Haakaas and things such as an Elvie Curve are literally silicone pumps, that's why they can cause an over supply, they're manual silicone pumps. Milk catchers don't suction and are a completely different product lol.
Wow, i wish i had known this with my last baby. I think this was my problem, overproduction. I was miserable and hated bf'ing and had to give up. Getting prepared for my 2nd baby and hoping to have a better experience, i am so grateful for the info about not pumping both simultaneously! Thank youuuu
Omg this explains exactly why I had so many problems feeding my baby 😭 she is 8 months old now and we have balanced out, but for the first 4-5 months feeding was a nightmare from oversupply/overactive letdown and the resulting choking/reflux for my poor baby. I started using this when my milk first came in and I was so engorged my baby couldn’t latch and the problems just got worse after this point. This thing should come with a big warning label. Thank you for your content and warning!!
I’m so sorry you experienced the problems it can cause. Glad things have leveled out. ♥️ If there is a next time … hopefully you won’t have to experience it again!
Similar, although I was only using 1-2× per day, but I think it probably contributed towards my developing an oversupply and recurrent clogged ducts. I ended up having to take lecithin every day to stop developing the clogged ducts. Ladies, this is definitely a useful product, for catching a bit of extra milk, but as the video says, don't use it the first 8 weeks, or it can mess your milk supply. Trust me, clogged ducts is no fun.
Very informative! Thank you so much for the thorough explanation. I received one of these for free with a manual breast pump and have used it both passively and actively. I'm so glad I saw this video before it became an issue. My baby has been literally going with the flow wonderfully, but has his moments of needing to gear up and fight the fire hose when we go a little long between feedings. I would hate to do that to him all the time!
I’m glad I came across this video. I think I may have caused myself to have a forceful letdown by using this. My baby definitely chokes at the breast and has been having reflux issues and now she cries sometimes when feeding. I think this may be causing those issues. I had no idea this could cause issues. My baby is only 5 weeks old and I don’t use this everyday but I have used it to actively collect milk. Actually, I had it on my boob when I came across this video. I’m hoping I can reverse the issue so that my baby and I can have a more pleasant breastfeeding experience. Do you have any recommendations on how to reverse the forceful letdown issue?
@@Kiolashei yes. You could remove the Haakaa sooner than you normally do so you collect less milk. And do that all slowly over a week or so and you should be ok. How much do you collect each day in total in the Haakaa?
Excellent video 👏🏿! I tend to overproduce and have a really fast let down naturally. I’m currently exclusively breastfeeding my 4th child, but I only used a pump with my first while she was in NICU. I’m personally not a fan of them but I do understand the moms who need to use them❤️. Thank you for sharing this video 🥰!
I stumbled upon this video one week PP, used it for almost 5 days, a couple of times a day - NOT every feeding and so far it works wonders :) I have zero issues with neither too much or too little milk - so it seems like a perfect moment to take your video into consideration and wean myself off this contraption and try to use it passively :D thank you!
Depending on how much milk you pull off that may only tell your body to continue to make that milk which becomes an endless cycle of you always having to pull Off milk beforehand.
Thank you for this info! I am ftm and I chose the Boone trove to catch passively. Does this have any of the issues the hakka does or does it not apply to the trove since trove isn’t active suction?
Awesome video! Hit home as I am exactly that 8 week mum trying to increase supply you mentioned. Is there something I could still do to increase supply?I am currently combination feeding, managing to pump after 2-3 feeds per day and taking moringa
I'm a bit confused... if you just squeeze the bottle more lightly/gently before attaching, then there is less suction? It's entirely proportional to how hard you squeeze it, which seems pretty intuitive (if you hit a ball harder, rebounds harder, if you squeeze harder, it has more suction) so... can't you just adjust it to your own comfort?
Thanks so much for the video!! Have you seen the same issue from the haakaa ladybugs,or would you consider those to be more similar to the passive milk collectors?
Great question! Those are more like passive collectors. People sometimes can use suction to attach the ladybug / but not usually and it’s not nearly as strong as the original Haakaa.
@DoneNaturally thank you so much for the quick reply! I'm 5 weeks postpartum and have been using the ladybugs and they work great at collecting leaks while feeding (except when baby kicks them off 😄) or while leaking just before feeding. I have to use a little suction to get them to stay put (or I'll put in bra while nursing) but I just ordered the regular haakaa last week and found it really painful when suctioned and also woke up so engorged the past two days and was spraying baby! So after seeing your video and reply, I think I will skip the regular haakaa and stick with the ladybugs. Hopefully the suction with the ladybug is significantly less than the haakaa so it won't cause oversupply/engorgement issues! Thank you so much for the education and insight.
@DoneNaturally sometimes just a few drops, but other times anywhere from 5-10 mL (combined across both sides - I'll switch it to the other side when I switch her mid feed) from a feeding. Probably on average 5, but max 10 ml if I'm more engorged. Although as I'm writing this, I just got 15 mL from this feed! Maybe because I had just taken a warm shower beforehand? We put the ladybug milk in the medela tubes we got from the hospital and eventually throughout the day it accumulates so my husband can give her a bottle at night!
@@RfM2022 with those small amounts it’s not going to contribute to overproduction or enforcement. But yes over time those amounts add up and can be so useful!
sorry if I missed this in the comments but can you explain why we shouldn't use this to replace a feed/pump? I can get as much milk as I need for the next feed. Why does it matter if there is repetitive suction pattern or not?
@@annemaialemead3760 it doesn’t simulate the mechanics of what sucking at the breast does. And over time your body will stop responding to it that manner. When missing a breastfeed, also it is needed to pump both breasts even if baby only nurses on one side per session. The hormones are less when not nursing, so that helps combat that.
had severe mastitis and 2 abscesses on the same breast i used the haaka on (used it to relieve clogged duct , also tried the epsom salt trick and it made my mastitis way worse) and had to do surgical drain to remove it
What week would you say would be the best to start using it actively once a day? I’ve heard to wait 3-4 weeks, but was wondering what your take would be. I am almost 2 weeks postpartum.
I would say now. I talk about it here too…with using it actively…it’d be treated like strartinh pumping. For any missed breastfeeding make sure you use an electric pump not just the Haakaa.
I think it’s a good point. You’re a only channel that mentioned about this. I will consider using this, and careful.. my baby is coming soon. I have not bought hakkaa yet 😊
So using it once a day to get milk is OK? I have not been pumping, but I would like to have a little bit of milk in the fridge in case I had to be away from baby.
Yes! Especially in the beginning and if you’ve always done that. If it’s started late after milk supply has been established, then it can steal the milk that baby should get at that breast for that or the next feed.
At 3 months pp starting its use, risks taking the milk out that the baby is supposed to get. Especially Bc at this point your supply is established. This video explains that.
To best stimulate milk Production when having a low supply, a mechanical Breastpump is best Bc of the repetitive suction. Especially the father out postpartum you are.
@@DoneNaturally I wrote out a through response then lost the whole thing. I'm 10 weeks postpartum. I alternate between the ladybug version and the one in the video every feed (1-3 hours). I typically get about an ounce, but intermittently get 2-3. Sometimes I get completely nothing even with the haaka from the video.
I love how this haakaa can over supply your milk, then i will be using this every single minute i want tk have over supply of milk for my baby and store in the freezer
Oversupply is not fun and can create breastfeeding aversion bc flow is too fast and baby is stressed at the breast. I’ve had women wean early than they wanted bc baby refused breastfeeding because of an oversupply then mom had to EP which she hated and then weaned. And depending on how far postpartum you are, using the Haakaa can steal milk from the baby that they should’ve gotten at the breastfeed and then you’re storing milk that the baby should have gotten and then create low weight gain. It’s not a benign tool and can absolutely cause more problems. Please do not use this without the guidance of an IBCLC.
I wonder if all these points also apply to pumping on 1 side while baby is feeding on the other. I'm 12 weeks postpartum and I realised the other day that I can get much more milk in a much shorter period when I pump during a feed. I don't pump very often; usually I pump if I need to go out and sometimes I pump once a day to give myself and baby practice with bottlefeeding). I can see the cons of using a Haaka applying to pumping while baby is on the other breast as well. But I assume it's fine if it's infrequent.
For over active letdown, I was advised to use the Hokka for a couple of minutes before feeding my baby or to manually express some milk before latching. So you’re saying doing those things is contributing to having too much let down?
Manually expressing a small amount should be ok. Like 10ml. But it’s also not something that can be maintained long Term and doesn’t solve the overactive letdown at all.
Very slowly …. Leave it on a little less and a little less over the course of a week or more- depending on how much you’ve been collecting, how far pp you are … and if it isn’t causing issues for you or baby - for a very few it doesn’t, and the excess you want - you could keep going.
Thank you so much for doing this video. I bought this and tried to use it in the early days as "a pump" as it says on the label, but it was so painful Andi couldn't use it. This explains exactly why! 👍🏻 Thank you xx
I need you as a lactation consultant! I have always struggled with a very large supply from the off. I bought this on my 3rd baby instead of electric pump. It worked well but didn't resolve my hyper lactation and constant engorgement issues. Now I know why. But I'm still at a loss as to how to resolve this.
Ive been using a haka for about 10 months now... ive used it actively like 3 times a day. Given that i went back to work Nov. Of 2022 and NEVER had a chance to pump at work (now its June '23) the haka be came more of my friend. Now i have swollen boob amd painful feedings on that side. And now i see why my baby was constantly unlaching. I will be using it w caution 😪 yes it sounds promising to collect milk especially when you go back to work but i see the dangers now... almost a whole year later
Yes its best used with caution and specific guidance from an IBCLC on how it can be used or how to plan for a person’s long term goals depending on their working life & circumstances. I’m so sorry you’re experiencing pain.
Would you use this if you have a clogged duct? I have a clogged duct for the 5th time. I've used it before when I get a clogged duct n seemed like it helped but would you use this or something else to relieve the clogged? I have been exclusively pumping for 18 months and in the process of weaning.
The recommendations for clogs and mastitis have changed from heat to ice. So no, I wouldn’t. It’s possible you’re weaning a bit too quickly and a slower wean from EP would help you avoid clogs while you wean.
Unfortunately, I never knew this.. I’m so heart broken! I have used this since the very beginning for every feed, under the myth that “it’s just a collector”… I’m almost 4 weeks now and experiencing overactive let down, and difficulty with my little one getting wayyyy to much. What do you recommend now? I need to stop using it and am worried it will just lead to engorgement/ mastitis… I’m so nervous now😞 would love to know what to do
I’m so sorry you’re experiencing this. It is frustrating how misleading it is marketed. It definitely needs to be a slow process to keep you safe and comfortable. Certainly doable tho. How slow would depend on how much excess you’re collecting each day. Your IBCLC could guide you. I do tele consults also if you wanted to connect with me. You can find me on any socials to message me or find my website for my contact info.
Yes, I remember I would start leaking when I put my baby on the breast and just put my Hakka on. It drained my breast completely and I would have nothing for the baby on that side and I would just put that milk in a bottle and then that breast would never get stimulated. I struggled with low milk supply and constantly getting engorged and never regulating. Now I’m fist pounding my head recognizing the places I went wrong with my bf journey.
I am 4 weeks pp and been using this almost every time I feed. I was told I need to “empty my breasts” every feed so I thought this was a great way. I have an overactive letdown and am definitely “water boarding” my son. Can I wean myself off of this and go down to once or twice a day (I want to continue building a freezer stash even if more slowly now)? My son is super fussy at the breast and if this is why I want things to be better!
It sounds like the way you’d been using it has created those issues. Yes you can slowly wean off of it. Leave it on for shorter periods each time. Slowly. Over the course of a few weeks. Maybe have the goal of collecting 1/2-1 oz less each time or 2-3 mins less each time. And then after 3-5 days reduce again. Wait another 3-5 days before again reducing. Etc. until it’s to none or keeping 1 session in per day.
Thank you for the tips!! I don’t time my feeds so this seems a bit hard but I’m sure I’ll figure it out 🥴 And it collects different amounts every feed! Would it be bad to start using it every other feed? Or is that too aggressive?
also in terms of having "no risk" if used passively, what about the fact that "drip milk" is lower in fat (many breast milk banks won't accept milk caught by a milk catcher for this reason, but WILL accept milk extracted with a haakaa)?
@@annemaialemead3760 Human milk banks have very strict policies in place for a reason bc they are dealing with sick, immune compromised and often premature babies. Human milk has the lowest fat milk of all mammal milks. So the fat in leaked milk is not markedly different. Fat changes throughout the day, and feed and weeks and months. So it’s not a measurable difference that should be even thought about with a full term baby.
How about when baby would only want to feed on one side? Can I use this on the other side? When I had my first baby, this was the case and my left side stopped producing milk. I felt like I fed her less with just one boob.
If baby is allowed to feed on demand, nursing on one breast alternating session will not deplete supply. Anytime we remove more milk than baby needs in the beginning especially, our supply will increase. Which that increase could become oversupply if done at each feed and that comes with some challenges.
What about if baby doesn’t make it to the other breast (falls asleep from oral weakness) and I use the haakaa to feed that side to baby? Is that still a bad idea? How about once a day would that create that water boarding experience? I don’t think I leak at all so using it as a collector won’t work for me. (7 weeks PP)
It is not helpful with a low milk supply. First the root cause for low milk supply needs to be addressed and solved. (With a Lactation Consultant). Then if removing more milk is appropriate to possibly increase supply, a dual high quality electric Breastpump needs to be used. There are so many variables to low supply that it has to be carefully be addressed and how to manage it does also. A Haaka is not a solution.
So what I am hearing is to just hold it with my fancy nursing bra while I’m breast feeding. My goal is just to catch leaking, so this was good for me to watch!
If you’ve only used it a couple of times, you’ve not done anything. It’s when ppl do it over and over again every day for weeks especially in the beginning of milk making.
The Haakaa is not a breastpump and should not be used to express milk when we miss a breastfeed. So if you are nursing one baby at a time instead of tandem, you’d either want to breastfeed one right after another or if you nurse one and then bottle the next, you’d want to pump for that missed breastfeed with the other twin.
It’s not a breast pump. I’m cautioning it’s casual use because it can create the monster of oversupply/hyperlactation which can mean reoccurring plugged ducts, mastitis, unresolved engorgement, breast refusal/aversion, stress at the breast with coughing, choking and sputtering … people should not just attach the Haakaa on the other breast with every feed. The Haakaa is not a benign tool. It can cause many challenges.
It depends on how far into postpartum you are. It might not increase supply if your fast enough into postpartum and could take milk away from the baby.
@@xythrial I totally hear you. I work with low supply moms too, but to be fair - hyperlactation is a real issue. Many have quit bc they haven’t been able to work with someone to manage it well. They can suffer with reoccurring mastitis, breast abscess that needs surgical draining and inpatient IV fluids and overnight stays, sepsis, a baby who won’t breastfeed bc the flow drowns them and they develop a breastfeeding aversion, spending so much time pumping trying to chase engorgement that never resolves. It’s not fun. They even themselves hate to admit it bc they are sensitive to the mothers who struggle with enough. But they also are struggling in their own way. 💕
I’m sorry I came across that way to you. My frustration in this video is directed at the companies that unfairly market items (and then make Ridiculous money) without understanding the physiology of lactation and can cause so many problems for moms. I feel so sad for the moms I encounter that have gotten into such trouble using this product as the co. Recommends. All too often lactating families are made to feel that they *need* or else breastfeeding and or pumping won’t succeed. Moms deserve better.
@@LydaPatel-f6i there are clear risks as outlined in the video. Any lactation professional knows this and all families should too. Use with proper guidance and caution helps reduce the risks as I also discuss in the video.
I just want to breast feed I am 3 weeks postpartum as of now I don’t want to produce more then what baby needs but I always leak on one side what do I do ?
If you need to increase supply, increasing milk removal is what you need to do and a Haakaa is not best for that. A mechanical Breastpump is needed AND a visit with an IBCLC to help understand why you aren’t producing “enough” and navigating how to help.
Breastfeeding..”Fun” that is1 hilarious. Ok so someone who is desperate to increase milk production because I only get .5oz per pump and extreme pain to where I can’t wear a top without excruciating pain… imma go ahead and try this. Breastfeeding is hell already
If you want to increase milk supply, the most effective way to do that is more milk removal using a quality electric breastpump. Id also make sure you’ve been measured for flange fit. And talk with an IBCLC about your struggles and milk collection. She should be able to discuss your history and rule out any red flags for low milk production as well as talk about increasing milk volume. 💛
Hyperlactation is no joke. If you talk to anyone with it, it’s painful, babies struggle at the breast, can become breast averse, and many more challenges. It’s not fun nor good news.
@@DoneNaturally as a clinician you should understand that what you’re speaking of is not bad for every situation, as I stated before, especially multiples. You’re welcome. Unsubscribing now because your attitude is disgusting , unwarranted and you’re clearly a fear monger er, you’re the type of person that automatically suggest surgery for a birth that needs no intervention. I would never want your services.
@@aliced7722 Shoot. Not my intention of my video. I am frustrated with companies that create products without any input or expertise in the field. I’m sorry it felt that way. You didn’t do anything wrong. The company did.
With induced lactation you need mechanical repetitive stimulation to work to build up milk. A Haakaa is definitely not going to do it. And best using a rented medical grade Breastpump like the Medela Symphony. Below is my video on Induced Lactation.
Listen in 1.5x speed, thank me later
Lol I'm the same as you, everytime a youtuber talks slow, pauses often in their talking, says um a lot...it drives me bananas.
Thank youuu 👍🏽 🙏🏽
thank you and lol
Even 1.75 sounds normal😅
Thank you! 😂
As an underproducer all I can hear are advantages. I am sold.
If you need to ramp up supply and stimulation, mechanical pumping with repeated suction at about 54 sucks per minute is best. The Haakaa alone can’t provide the stimulation needed to increase supply.
Was just about to say me tooo😐
@@DoneNaturally hopefully she watched the video and she means both together (using the Hakka to collect precious milk from dripping “down the drain” during a feed and pumping to increase supply.
@@MiVidaBellisima I hope so too!!!
SAME!
Is great for getting up the milk supply. Not everyone has an oversupply; to each it’s own. The haakaa saved my breastfeeding journey 🙏🏾
That’s actually not true. If someone has a
Low supply they need to depend on an electric Breastpump especially if this is after the first couple of weeks postpartum. It’s absolutely a device that needs to be used under the guidance of an IBCLC.
Thanks for your story….experience is best
Hakka helped me too...my supply improved!! Also saves time...as I use it in opposite breast!!
As someone who has low milk supply sounds like that is a problem I would like to have, so I guess I’m ordering two lol
Ordered one of these before baby #3 comes in a few weeks due to seeing so many women using/recommending these, and I am SO glad I came across this video before my first use.
Thank you so much for expert explanation! That's exactly how I understand this product and that was my question. If I use Haakaa not just like a 'Collector' my body is producing more milk for no reason...
You just saved me I was wondering why my breasts are still full yet I wanted relief
I was looking at a Haakah today. So glad I did not get it as my breast is engorged and my baby are struggeling with reflux and winds because of my breasts being do engorged and releasing too much milk into her mouth. Thank you for this video.
Thank you for this video. My youngest is 14 and I’m getting ready for a new baby. So many new gadgets and info. I loved my manual pump 14 years ago so I though it was a “pump”.
I will just stick with my old method!!
She gets to the point at around 4:50 min
This is very helpful and explains my engorgement and my baby choking on my overflow.
I may have over looked this, but it would be helpful to time stamp the actual explanation of the problem. It was around 5 minutes in the video.
Thank you!!
My baby is a NICU baby. They didnt let me hold or breastfeed him for a week, only bottle feed. He's used to free flowing bottles. Meanwhile im pumping 2-3 hours, rented the hospital medela, hydrated, & it takes 20 minutes to make not even 2 oz. When he did get to breastfeed he got too frustrated, was hungry, & didnt want me. I understand what your saying but I need free flow, I need let down or else breastfeeding will just be out of the window for me. I dont want to solely pump for 2 years, its cold & detaching. I want the milk to flow now. And the constant pumping, hydrating, fennel tea, oatmeal, & almonds arent doing it for me.
I can’t believe you only have a few thousand subscribers. Your videos are soooo good. You have helped me so much in my lactation journey. Thank you 🙏🏻😊
I’m so glad you like them and they’ve helped! Started recording in 2019. Been a lot of fun.
These were actually really helpful for me for exactly the reasons you say against them with my babies. My babies are very small and my nipples are the size of my damn thumb. My babies can not latch well for a good few months and have to grow into it. Those first few months these causing the extra milk and stronger let-down meant my babies could still nurse effectively without getting too stressed out or not gaining enough or injury to my nipples. They would learn how to latch properly when having comfort sessions as they were calmer and more patient than true hungry sessions, and everyone was happy. This time around (4th baby) we're going to use the caught milk so that past the initial feeding stages my older kids can bottle feed from time to time or dad can give baby some milk if I'm having a shower or something and will just nurse and/or pump again after.
I’m pregnant for the first time and have been so curious about this product. This is very good information i can tell you have talked to a lot of frustrated mommas over this product! It’s so hyped up on social media. My mom had 2 babies and then twins and was able to breast feed all of us until we didn’t want it anymore around 10-12 months old so I don’t think I’ll have a supply issue. this is really good information and if I know anyone curious about this product I will send them your way! Thank you :)
Congratulations!!! It’s definitely not a necessity despite its successful marketing campaign. Marketing makes expectant and new parents they need all sorts of things when really they don’t. 🤗
@@DoneNaturally I have noticed the fast living agenda is strong in the new parent world! We’ve been having babies since the beginning of time and they never used these products why do we need them now?! I’m definitely a minimalist and try to find things I actually need.
@@emiliec4391 I have the same school of thought!!!!
be careful with it - Don't use it WHILE your baby is feeding! it can lead to hyperlactation very very quickly. (Lactation consultant, midwife and university professor in Lactation medicine speaking here. I deal with SO many problems with these things :(
As a parent of a 5 month baby that gets pissy and impatient now because my letdown isn’t as strong as it was in the first 8 weeks, I can only hope this boosts my letdown. I spend so much of the day feeling like my boobs are empty and deflated now when I started off not being able to put my arms down and having to pump off the extra to relieve the pain (sometimes 15oz a day at 8 days pp) DD has always been a gannet but now my flow is established she’s always fussy at the breast when the milk flow is slow 😂
If you have a pump, trying pumping the first 2-3 minutes to encourage the letdown then put baby on. It helped me out.
this explains all of my problems lol...unfortunately this came out 2 months after my daughter was born and I ended up exclusively pumping from 2 months to the present time. So sad that this info is not well known across the board - none of my LC's mentioned anything like this at any point (was also dealing with my anatomy, a tongue/lip tied baby and major latch issues). Sharing your page with others for sure! I have learned so much from every video you make
I’m glad it’s been helpful but I hate that you’ve dealt with struggles and the timing wasn’t better for you! 🫶
I use either this or my lady bug every nursing session bc I would rather have extra milk than not enough
I can understand that perspective. I just also work with moms who have had so much painful trouble with oversupply. It sounds delightful, but can cause Feeding aversions, constant engorgement, reoccurrence of mastitis and plugs and for some…weaning Bc it’s so stressful for and baby.
Thank you for acknowledging the misery I experience as a breastfeeder with hyper lactation. I literally have to lay flat for feedings so my kiddo doesn't drown 😂 I've never used a Haaka but was considering it. Now I definitely won't be using it except how you've said to 😂 thank you!
You’re very lucky to be able to create enough for your child.
@@MiVidaBellisimaI'm aware. Thank you.
don't. You will make more milk. Your baby is already struggling. You need to downregulate.
Haakaas and things such as an Elvie Curve are literally silicone pumps, that's why they can cause an over supply, they're manual silicone pumps. Milk catchers don't suction and are a completely different product lol.
So glad I watched this video. 7 weeks pp. I don't leak. So I'm just gonna put it back in the box.
Wow, i wish i had known this with my last baby. I think this was my problem, overproduction. I was miserable and hated bf'ing and had to give up. Getting prepared for my 2nd baby and hoping to have a better experience, i am so grateful for the info about not pumping both simultaneously! Thank youuuu
@@213tms3 Oh dang I’m so sorry. Over production is not fun and makes many want to be done. Congratulations on your second!!!!
Omg this explains exactly why I had so many problems feeding my baby 😭 she is 8 months old now and we have balanced out, but for the first 4-5 months feeding was a nightmare from oversupply/overactive letdown and the resulting choking/reflux for my poor baby. I started using this when my milk first came in and I was so engorged my baby couldn’t latch and the problems just got worse after this point. This thing should come with a big warning label. Thank you for your content and warning!!
I’m so sorry you experienced the problems it can cause. Glad things have leveled out. ♥️ If there is a next time … hopefully you won’t have to experience it again!
Similar, although I was only using 1-2× per day, but I think it probably contributed towards my developing an oversupply and recurrent clogged ducts. I ended up having to take lecithin every day to stop developing the clogged ducts.
Ladies, this is definitely a useful product, for catching a bit of extra milk, but as the video says, don't use it the first 8 weeks, or it can mess your milk supply. Trust me, clogged ducts is no fun.
hi summer, what are other ways you would recommend to try to store milk in a safe way to avoid any of the issues you mentioned?
This is what I suggest for moms who will return to work. ua-cam.com/video/ZH3Pyo_62ZM/v-deo.html
Very informative! Thank you so much for the thorough explanation. I received one of these for free with a manual breast pump and have used it both passively and actively. I'm so glad I saw this video before it became an issue. My baby has been literally going with the flow wonderfully, but has his moments of needing to gear up and fight the fire hose when we go a little long between feedings. I would hate to do that to him all the time!
I’m so glad you find my video helpful!
I’m glad I came across this video. I think I may have caused myself to have a forceful letdown by using this. My baby definitely chokes at the breast and has been having reflux issues and now she cries sometimes when feeding. I think this may be causing those issues. I had no idea this could cause issues. My baby is only 5 weeks old and I don’t use this everyday but I have used it to actively collect milk. Actually, I had it on my boob when I came across this video. I’m hoping I can reverse the issue so that my baby and I can have a more pleasant breastfeeding experience.
Do you have any recommendations on how to reverse the forceful letdown issue?
@@Kiolashei yes. You could remove the Haakaa sooner than you normally do so you collect less milk. And do that all slowly over a week or so and you should be ok. How much do you collect each day in total in the Haakaa?
Oh my goodness! I needed this video. I’ve been using this all wrong. Thank you so much for the information!
Excellent video 👏🏿! I tend to overproduce and have a really fast let down naturally. I’m currently exclusively breastfeeding my 4th child, but I only used a pump with my first while she was in NICU. I’m personally not a fan of them but I do understand the moms who need to use them❤️. Thank you for sharing this video 🥰!
I use it only for the golden late hours. I was totally fine will be using it again for baby #3😊
I stumbled upon this video one week PP, used it for almost 5 days, a couple of times a day - NOT every feeding and so far it works wonders :) I have zero issues with neither too much or too little milk - so it seems like a perfect moment to take your video into consideration and wean myself off this contraption and try to use it passively :D thank you!
I just bought this to help pull off some milk before latching baby.
Depending on how much milk you pull off that may only tell your body to continue to make that milk which becomes an endless cycle of you always having to pull
Off milk beforehand.
Thank you for this info! I am ftm and I chose the Boone trove to catch passively. Does this have any of the issues the hakka does or does it not apply to the trove since trove isn’t active suction?
I would just make sure you don’t use it with suction and just place it in the bra.
@@DoneNaturally Great, thank you so much!!
Awesome video! Hit home as I am exactly that 8 week mum trying to increase supply you mentioned. Is there something I could still do to increase supply?I am currently combination feeding, managing to pump after 2-3 feeds per day and taking moringa
Thanks for another great video ! I also believe it comes in one standard size and this was painful for me to even attach
That’s true! Forgot to mention that. Attached with suction for some can be incredibly painful, stretch and swell the nipple and cause damage.
I'm a bit confused... if you just squeeze the bottle more lightly/gently before attaching, then there is less suction?
It's entirely proportional to how hard you squeeze it, which seems pretty intuitive (if you hit a ball harder, rebounds harder, if you squeeze harder, it has more suction) so... can't you just adjust it to your own comfort?
Thanks so much for the video!! Have you seen the same issue from the haakaa ladybugs,or would you consider those to be more similar to the passive milk collectors?
Great question! Those are more like passive collectors. People sometimes can use suction to attach the ladybug / but not usually and it’s not nearly as strong as the original Haakaa.
@DoneNaturally thank you so much for the quick reply! I'm 5 weeks postpartum and have been using the ladybugs and they work great at collecting leaks while feeding (except when baby kicks them off 😄) or while leaking just before feeding. I have to use a little suction to get them to stay put (or I'll put in bra while nursing) but I just ordered the regular haakaa last week and found it really painful when suctioned and also woke up so engorged the past two days and was spraying baby! So after seeing your video and reply, I think I will skip the regular haakaa and stick with the ladybugs. Hopefully the suction with the ladybug is significantly less than the haakaa so it won't cause oversupply/engorgement issues! Thank you so much for the education and insight.
@@RfM2022 Yes the ladybugs shouldn’t make things worse. How much do you typically collect in them each time you use them?
@DoneNaturally sometimes just a few drops, but other times anywhere from 5-10 mL (combined across both sides - I'll switch it to the other side when I switch her mid feed) from a feeding. Probably on average 5, but max 10 ml if I'm more engorged. Although as I'm writing this, I just got 15 mL from this feed! Maybe because I had just taken a warm shower beforehand? We put the ladybug milk in the medela tubes we got from the hospital and eventually throughout the day it accumulates so my husband can give her a bottle at night!
@@RfM2022 with those small amounts it’s not going to contribute to overproduction or enforcement. But yes over time those amounts add up and can be so useful!
sorry if I missed this in the comments but can you explain why we shouldn't use this to replace a feed/pump? I can get as much milk as I need for the next feed. Why does it matter if there is repetitive suction pattern or not?
@@annemaialemead3760 it doesn’t simulate the mechanics of what sucking at the breast does. And over time your body will stop responding to it that manner. When missing a breastfeed, also it is needed to pump both breasts even if baby only nurses on one side per session. The hormones are less when not nursing, so that helps combat that.
What about for someone that isn't producing enough? Would this product be good to help stimulate more milk?
Better to have a double electric Breastpump and be guided by an IBCLC to ensure a good path that gets you where you want to be.
@@DoneNaturally thank you for your response. I learnt a lot watching your videos last night 💜
had severe mastitis and 2 abscesses on the same breast i used the haaka on (used it to relieve clogged duct , also tried the epsom salt trick and it made my mastitis way worse) and had to do surgical drain to remove it
What week would you say would be the best to start using it actively once a day? I’ve heard to wait 3-4 weeks, but was wondering what your take would be. I am almost 2 weeks postpartum.
I would say now. I talk about it here too…with using it actively…it’d be treated like strartinh pumping. For any missed breastfeeding make sure you use an electric pump not just the Haakaa.
I think it’s a good point. You’re a only channel that mentioned about this. I will consider using this, and careful.. my baby is coming soon. I have not bought hakkaa yet 😊
So using it once a day to get milk is OK? I have not been pumping, but I would like to have a little bit of milk in the fridge in case I had to be away from baby.
Yes! Especially in the beginning and if you’ve always done that. If it’s started late after milk supply has been established, then it can steal the milk that baby should get at that breast for that or the next feed.
Thank you so much for this video. Do I still run the risk of an oversupply if I start using it for half of my feeds 3 months postpartum? Thanks 😊
At 3 months pp starting its use, risks taking the milk out that the baby is supposed to get. Especially Bc at this point your supply is established. This video explains that.
This video talks about it. ua-cam.com/video/H-dkHSLO3hw/v-deo.html
So at 3m pp it wouldn’t be wise to start its use.
Does this mean that it could actually help with increasing low supply?
To best stimulate milk
Production when having a low supply, a mechanical Breastpump is best Bc of the repetitive suction. Especially the father out postpartum you are.
I've used this for years and haven't had a problem.
I’m very glad it hasn’t caused issues for you. Unfortunately it can for many parents.
@@DoneNaturally maybe you can help explain. Sometimes I get nothing in the haaka and other times I get up to 3 ounces. What causes the variation?
@@tracy3418 How far ppl are you? Do you use the Haakaa at the same predictable times each time or randomly?
@@DoneNaturally I wrote out a through response then lost the whole thing. I'm 10 weeks postpartum. I alternate between the ladybug version and the one in the video every feed (1-3 hours). I typically get about an ounce, but intermittently get 2-3. Sometimes I get completely nothing even with the haaka from the video.
@@tracy3418 and you store all of the excess and otherwise bf? Have you been doing this since the fist week pp? Or when did you start?
I love how this haakaa can over supply your milk, then i will be using this every single minute i want tk have over supply of milk for my baby and store in the freezer
Oversupply is not fun and can create breastfeeding aversion bc flow is too fast and baby is stressed at the breast. I’ve had women wean early than they wanted bc baby refused breastfeeding because of an oversupply then mom had to EP which she hated and then weaned.
And depending on how far postpartum you are, using the Haakaa can steal milk from the baby that they should’ve gotten at the breastfeed and then you’re storing milk that the baby should have gotten and then create low weight gain.
It’s not a benign tool and can absolutely cause more problems. Please do not use this without the guidance of an IBCLC.
I wonder if all these points also apply to pumping on 1 side while baby is feeding on the other. I'm 12 weeks postpartum and I realised the other day that I can get much more milk in a much shorter period when I pump during a feed. I don't pump very often; usually I pump if I need to go out and sometimes I pump once a day to give myself and baby practice with bottlefeeding). I can see the cons of using a Haaka applying to pumping while baby is on the other breast as well. But I assume it's fine if it's infrequent.
For over active letdown, I was advised to use the Hokka for a couple of minutes before feeding my baby or to manually express some milk before latching. So you’re saying doing those things is contributing to having too much let down?
Manually expressing a small amount should be ok. Like 10ml. But it’s also not something that can be maintained long
Term and doesn’t solve the overactive letdown at all.
Thank you for the info! What advice would you give if you’ve been using one pretty regularly in the active suction phase and want to cut down?
Very slowly …. Leave it on a little less and a little less over the course of a week or more- depending on how much you’ve been collecting, how far pp you are … and if it isn’t causing issues for you or baby - for a very few it doesn’t, and the excess you want - you could keep going.
@@DoneNaturally i was just going to stop using it all together unless i needed to relieve a little bit is that bad?
Thank you so much for doing this video. I bought this and tried to use it in the early days as "a pump" as it says on the label, but it was so painful Andi couldn't use it. This explains exactly why! 👍🏻 Thank you xx
I need you as a lactation consultant! I have always struggled with a very large supply from the off. I bought this on my 3rd baby instead of electric pump. It worked well but didn't resolve my hyper lactation and constant engorgement issues. Now I know why. But I'm still at a loss as to how to resolve this.
I’m so sorry you’re experiencing the struggle of hyperlactation. You’d have to have a specific plan to reduce your supply slowly and safely. 💜
Ive been using a haka for about 10 months now... ive used it actively like 3 times a day. Given that i went back to work Nov. Of 2022 and NEVER had a chance to pump at work (now its June '23) the haka be came more of my friend. Now i have swollen boob amd painful feedings on that side. And now i see why my baby was constantly unlaching. I will be using it w caution 😪 yes it sounds promising to collect milk especially when you go back to work but i see the dangers now... almost a whole year later
Yes its best used with caution and specific guidance from an IBCLC on how it can be used or how to plan for a person’s long term goals depending on their working life & circumstances. I’m so sorry you’re experiencing pain.
Would you use this if you have a clogged duct? I have a clogged duct for the 5th time. I've used it before when I get a clogged duct n seemed like it helped but would you use this or something else to relieve the clogged? I have been exclusively pumping for 18 months and in the process of weaning.
The recommendations for clogs and mastitis have changed from heat to ice. So no, I wouldn’t. It’s possible you’re weaning a bit too quickly and a slower wean from EP would help you avoid clogs while you wean.
I forgot my breast pump and got the hakka while i was at work... saved the day
Hi Summer! What would you recommend for a baby who typically only feeds from one side? Should I just passively collect?
Yes.

@@kyciarelli3847 🥰 You’re so welcome. I’m glad I can help!
Unfortunately, I never knew this.. I’m so heart broken! I have used this since the very beginning for every feed, under the myth that “it’s just a collector”… I’m almost 4 weeks now and experiencing overactive let down, and difficulty with my little one getting wayyyy to much.
What do you recommend now? I need to stop using it and am worried it will just lead to engorgement/ mastitis… I’m so nervous now😞 would love to know what to do
I’m so sorry you’re experiencing this. It is frustrating how misleading it is marketed.
It definitely needs to be a slow process to keep you safe and comfortable. Certainly doable tho. How slow would depend on how much excess you’re collecting each day. Your IBCLC could guide you. I do tele consults also if you wanted to connect with me. You can find me on any socials to message me or find my website for my contact info.
Yes, I remember I would start leaking when I put my baby on the breast and just put my Hakka on. It drained my breast completely and I would have nothing for the baby on that side and I would just put that milk in a bottle and then that breast would never get stimulated. I struggled with low milk supply and constantly getting engorged and never regulating. Now I’m fist pounding my head recognizing the places I went wrong with my bf journey.
I’m sorry mama. It can be hard to learn things like this later on in our journey. 😀
I do this but I still put him on that boob, I don’t drain it though I just do enough to get the flow going
Your not a failure !
I am 4 weeks pp and been using this almost every time I feed. I was told I need to “empty my breasts” every feed so I thought this was a great way. I have an overactive letdown and am definitely “water boarding” my son. Can I wean myself off of this and go down to once or twice a day (I want to continue building a freezer stash even if more slowly now)? My son is super fussy at the breast and if this is why I want things to be better!
It sounds like the way you’d been using it has created those issues. Yes you can slowly wean off of it. Leave it on for shorter periods each time. Slowly. Over the course of a few weeks. Maybe have the goal of collecting 1/2-1 oz less each time or 2-3 mins less each time. And then after 3-5 days reduce again. Wait another 3-5 days before again reducing. Etc. until it’s to none or keeping 1 session in per day.
Thank you for the tips!! I don’t time my feeds so this seems a bit hard but I’m sure I’ll figure it out 🥴 And it collects different amounts every feed! Would it be bad to start using it every other feed? Or is that too aggressive?
@@reneepost9404 Not bad at all. Try it and see how your body responds!
How can I buy this product from Bangladesh
also in terms of having "no risk" if used passively, what about the fact that "drip milk" is lower in fat (many breast milk banks won't accept milk caught by a milk catcher for this reason, but WILL accept milk extracted with a haakaa)?
@@annemaialemead3760 Human milk banks have very strict policies in place for a reason bc they are dealing with sick, immune compromised and often premature babies.
Human milk has the lowest fat milk of all mammal milks. So the fat in leaked milk is not markedly different. Fat changes throughout the day, and feed and weeks and months. So it’s not a measurable difference that should be even thought about with a full term baby.
How about when baby would only want to feed on one side? Can I use this on the other side? When I had my first baby, this was the case and my left side stopped producing milk. I felt like I fed her less with just one boob.
If baby is allowed to feed on demand, nursing on one breast alternating session will not deplete supply. Anytime we remove more milk than baby needs in the beginning especially, our supply will increase. Which that increase could become oversupply if done at each feed and that comes with some challenges.
Here is a video about one or both sides of mine. ua-cam.com/video/BTIJ_jsYDbk/v-deo.htmlsi=UpGqRaPZUJwLBLvH
What about if baby doesn’t make it to the other breast (falls asleep from oral weakness) and I use the haakaa to feed that side to baby? Is that still a bad idea? How about once a day would that create that water boarding experience? I don’t think I leak at all so using it as a collector won’t work for me. (7 weeks PP)
Me am not getting you please explain for me here in words i was about to buy this so i shouldn't
I had a lot of milk in my 3 weeks and now I am in my 4 weeks , I have a low production of milk very low. What can I do?
Can i still increase my mik supply at 12 weeks postpartum? As i used this kind of milk collector as pump but different brand 😢
Ok but what if you have low milk supply. It sounds like this may be a big help.
It is not helpful with a low milk supply. First the root cause for low milk supply needs to be addressed and solved. (With a Lactation Consultant). Then if removing more milk is appropriate to possibly increase supply, a dual high quality electric Breastpump needs to be used. There are so many variables to low supply that it has to be carefully be addressed and how to manage it does also. A Haaka is not a solution.
Can this be related to infant reflux? (The water boarding concept)
100% Yep. Reflux created by overactive letdown or hyperlactation.
So what I am hearing is to just hold it with my fancy nursing bra while I’m breast feeding. My goal is just to catch leaking, so this was good for me to watch!
Yes!!
Can you increase your milk supply at 14 weeks postpartum or is that amount set ?
It’s possible yes. Requires effort and the right way of trying to increase.
What should I do if I have used this a couple of times already? Can I reverse this problem
If you’ve only used it a couple of times, you’ve not done anything. It’s when ppl do it over and over again every day for weeks especially in the beginning of milk making.
So helpful!
Does this work for twins ? Especially when I’m not able to tandem feed ?
The Haakaa is not a breastpump and should not be used to express milk when we miss a breastfeed. So if you are nursing one baby at a time instead of tandem, you’d either want to breastfeed one right after another or if you nurse one and then bottle the next, you’d want to pump for that missed breastfeed with the other twin.
But the breast pump mimics baby thus telling the body to produce more milk .. So im confused on your point
It’s not a breast pump. I’m cautioning it’s casual use because it can create the monster of oversupply/hyperlactation which can mean reoccurring plugged ducts, mastitis, unresolved engorgement, breast refusal/aversion, stress at the breast with coughing, choking and sputtering … people should not just attach the Haakaa on the other breast with every feed. The Haakaa is not a benign tool. It can cause many challenges.
Ooh my that’s why i keep having abscess😢
So how can I use it to slightly increase supply?
It depends on how far into postpartum you are. It might not increase supply if your fast enough into postpartum and could take milk away from the baby.
People who complain about oversupply piss me the fuck off. I would give ANYTHING to have an oversupply
@@xythrial I totally hear you. I work with low supply moms too, but to be fair - hyperlactation is a real issue. Many have quit bc they haven’t been able to work with someone to manage it well. They can suffer with reoccurring mastitis, breast abscess that needs surgical draining and inpatient IV fluids and overnight stays, sepsis, a baby who won’t breastfeed bc the flow drowns them and they develop a breastfeeding aversion, spending so much time pumping trying to chase engorgement that never resolves. It’s not fun. They even themselves hate to admit it bc they are sensitive to the mothers who struggle with enough. But they also are struggling in their own way. 💕
There’s something about the way she talks that sounds very condescending
I’m sorry I came across that way to you. My frustration in this video is directed at the companies that unfairly market items (and then make Ridiculous money) without understanding the physiology of lactation and can cause so many problems for moms. I feel so sad for the moms I encounter that have gotten into such trouble using this product as the co. Recommends. All too often lactating families are made to feel that they *need* or else breastfeeding and or pumping won’t succeed. Moms deserve better.
100% Very off putting
It's just a tittle to catch attention to her video.. safe your self time. There is not "risks"
@@LydaPatel-f6i there are clear risks as outlined in the video. Any lactation professional knows this and all families should too. Use with proper guidance and caution helps reduce the risks as I also discuss in the video.
I just want to breast feed I am 3 weeks postpartum as of now I don’t want to produce more then what baby needs but I always leak on one side what do I do ?
If you need to increase supply, increasing milk removal is what you need to do and a Haakaa is not best for that. A mechanical Breastpump is needed AND a visit with an IBCLC to help understand why you aren’t producing “enough” and navigating how to help.
Breastfeeding..”Fun” that is1 hilarious. Ok so someone who is desperate to increase milk production because I only get .5oz per pump and extreme pain to where I can’t wear a top without excruciating pain… imma go ahead and try this. Breastfeeding is hell already
If you want to increase milk supply, the most effective way to do that is more milk removal using a quality electric breastpump. Id also make sure you’ve been measured for flange fit. And talk with an IBCLC about your struggles and milk collection. She should be able to discuss your history and rule out any red flags for low milk production as well as talk about increasing milk volume. 💛
Sounds like good news 2 me
Hyperlactation is no joke. If you talk to anyone with it, it’s painful, babies struggle at the breast, can become breast averse, and many more challenges. It’s not fun nor good news.

What about adoptive breast-feeding in attempt to get lactation going to feeding level?
With induced lactation you need mechanical repetitive stimulation to work to build up milk. A Haakaa is definitely not going to do it. And best using a rented medical grade Breastpump like the Medela Symphony. Below is my video on Induced Lactation.
