Making Breast Pumps More Mom-Friendly

Nursing moms prefer breast pumps because it lets them spend time away from their baby while still meeting their optimum nutrition needs. But most of the breast pumps available are either too bulky or require an electrical outlet to operate, defying the very purpose of supporting moms on the go. Pumping also involves time-consuming and sometimes complicated steps of assembling valves, tubes, and bottles. The actual pumping is uncomfortable, awkward, and often painful.

This is where BabyBuddha stands out with its portable breast pump to mitigate the challenges caused by conventional pumps.

BabyBuddha’s lightweight breast pump is powered by rechargeable batteries with a one-hour runtime. Moms can conveniently pump while driving, working, or taking care of daily chores.



The breast pump kit includes a smart rechargeable breast pump unit, two flanges, two sets of duckbill valves, one pair of silicon diaphragms, a T-connector that can help mothers connect two pumps simultaneously, and a USB charging cable. The device can be hung around the neck with a lanyard to assist in multitasking while pumping. It also comes with a screen display to monitor the battery life, mode, and levels of pumping sessions. Mothers don’t have to worry about contamination as BabyBuddha uses BPA-free plastic and has a closed system design that stops the milk from flowing backward.

What’s more interesting is that BabyBuddha’s distinctive suction pattern mimics a baby’s natural breastfeeding process: a series of small, rapid suckling followed by one long slow sucking action.

This natural suction pattern shortens the pumping time while increasing the output. Moms can choose from the device’s five expressions and nine stimulation modes to select a suction pattern that best fits their comfort level. A testament to its innovative pumping action is found in a case scenario where a mother using BabyBuddha’s pump efficiently pumped two extra ounces of milk compared to conventional pumps, for every 20 minutes of the pumping session.

The device also provides a soft cushion around the suction cups to alleviate any areolae discomfort and anxiety associated with its soreness. Nursing moms with cracked areolae or inflamed breast tissue report a higher stress level. BabyBuddha pays extra attention to those challenges and ensures its pumps are more mother friendly.

“Our pumps are also Freemie cup compatible. It should always be a mother’s decision to choose a cup that they are most comfortable with, and that’s why BabyBuddha ensures its device can be used along with a cup of any size or shape that offers mothers maximum concealment and support,” says Joe John, CEO of BabyBuddha.

BabyBuddha is currently collaborating with leading durable medical equipment (DME) suppliers in the U.S to market its product. It is also directly selling on the company’s own website, apart from popular e-commerce platforms like Amazon and Target. It will be available at Target’s physical stores next year. BabyBuddha is also making fantastic progress in terms of gaining the certifications needed to ensure its product is covered by healthcare insurance.

Through these endeavors, BabyBuddha is committed to improving mothers’ breast-pumping satisfaction and helping breast pumps get a much-needed makeover.
