breastfeeding pump

A breastfeeding pump is a mechanical device designed to extract milk from a lactating woman's breast, typically to provide sustenance for an infant when direct breastfeeding is not possible or desired. These pumps can be manual, where the user controls the suction and rhythm, or electric, which automates the process. They are commonly used by mothers who are returning to work, have difficulty breastfeeding, or need to store milk for later use. Breast pumps can also assist in stimulating milk production and relieving engorgement.
