This refers to a double electric breast pump designed for efficient milk expression. It is a product intended to assist breastfeeding mothers in collecting milk, either for immediate feeding or storage for later use. The system typically comprises a motor unit that generates suction, breast shields that attach to the breast, collection bottles to contain the expressed milk, and tubing connecting these components.
The value of such a device lies in its ability to streamline the milk expression process, allowing mothers to more easily maintain their milk supply, provide nourishment to their infants when direct breastfeeding is not possible, and offer flexibility in feeding schedules. Historically, manual methods of milk expression were the primary option; the introduction of electric pumps represents a significant advancement, offering increased efficiency and convenience.
