Pop the Haakaa Silicone Milk Collector inside your bra to collect let-down throughout the day and save every precious drop of your liquid gold!
The discreet, one-piece design attaches securely to your breast and collects any breast milk that would otherwise be lost in a nursing pad. It is completely portable and has small feet on the bottom that lets the Milk Collector stand upright on flat surfaces to prevent any spills after use. Once you have finished collecting your let-down, open the plug on the top and safely pour your milk into a container or bottle.
If you want to extract more milk than the natural lactation process, the Ladybug can help you to do just that! Simply press it to your breast, and you will feel light suction as the Ladybug gently maximises the amount of breast milk leakage it catches as you carry on with your day. This allows you to save every drop of precious liquid gold, helping you to build up a stash of breast milk between breastfeeding or pumping sessions without any extra effort.

How to Use Instructions
Expressing
Ensure the plug is pushed into the outlet. Centre the opening on your nipple and gently squeeze the container until you are able to feel suction.
Allow the container to fill with milk. While using the Silicone Milk Collector, you can also breastfeed your baby on the other breast.
Remove the Silicone Milk Collector once it has filled up with milk or when you have expressed the desired amount. Pull out the plug from the outlet and pour out the extra milk from the outlet into a milk container. Extra milk can be stored long term in the freezer.
Collecting
Ensure the plug is pulled out from the outlet. Put the Silicone Milk Collector between your breast and bra, making sure the opening is centred over your nipple.
Adjust the Silicone Milk Collector until you feel comfortable and let your milk flow.
Remove the Silicone Milk Collector once it is filled up with extra milk or when you have expressed the desired amount. Take out the Silicone Milk Collector from your bra and pour out the extra milk from the outlet into a storage container. Extra milk can be stored long term in the freezer.

I brought these because I was sick of using breast pads, I didn’t want to store the milk I just wanted to catch anything that would usually go into the pads. Comfortable I just emptied them every few hours and slid them in during the night feeds before I fed to catch anything!

Need a demo video
I just received my milk collector, online there are so many demo videos on breast pump but I could not find a single video on for milk saver how to put it on. There is one video which is the promo video from the brand but it's bit very clear how exactly she had put it on so easily. I followed the instructions on the guide book but it isn't working for me. Every time I try to put it it pops out or if it is attached to my breast then it's squashing my nipple which obviously would not let any milk to come out. I so want to use this product but don't know how to do. It would be great If I could get a video from someone who has successfully used it to show the right way to attach it on the breast.
Hi Shelly
If you jump onto our Instagram our wonderful Social Media Manager Naomi has a featured story on the milk collector and shows it worn in her breastfeeding bra and also has lots of tips and advise on how to use it. She is a great source of information!
Let us know how you go :)

Waste of money
It’s only good for catching light amount of milk (20ml) but when I use the old school Hakka I get 50-70ml coz the suction is better on that then this, this one just falls off or loses suction
Hi Lisa
Thanks for the review. The Milk Collector and the Pump do have different uses. The pump does have a stronger suction and is great for catching let down while feeding on the other side. The Milk Collector attaches lightly and securely to your breast and collects any breast milk that would otherwise be lost in a nursing pad.
So if you use the Pump while feeding and the Milk Collector in place of a breast pad you will are sure you will be happy with your purchase.

Better but not great
I initially loved this in that it doesn’t protrude (and be easily be knocked off your breast by little baby hands) like the origin Hakaa, however the suction left me a bit disappointed because it is difficult to not have it suction to your nipple. I am a 12C size, and have no issues with the original Hakaa suctioning. If it is auctioned off the nipple then it easily falls off.
If I could return this product I would, as the negatives outweigh the positives. Original Hakaa trumps the lady bug I say.

Amazing product
I recently bought the Haakaa pump and was so impressed I thought I’d then also get this ladybug to give a go and it’s amazing!!! Can’t believe I didn’t know about these products! It catches all the milk is previously been wasting into breast pads, and it’s meant I haven’t had to express anymore for back up stored milk supply!
