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 longterm in the freezer. I got far more milk using it eventually than expressing alone. I would pop it on one breast while feeding from the other & used them after expressing to get the leftover milk out. I usually ended up with 200ml per day just with the Haakaa." (Mumsnet user Ozanj)

With so many breast pumps out there, working out which is the right one for you is quite a challenge. Here at Mumsnet, we've put our fair share of the best breast pumps through their paces, and we want to leave no stone unturned when it comes to helping parents find the breast pump that works for them.This also means, though, they are a bit bigger in size, while still equally as discreet as all of the other milk collection shells. What do I see? When I come, I see a baby who is thriving, but a mama who is in a lot of distress. Every time they try to breastfeed, their baby either pushes the breast away, arches their body away, and just refuses to latch. If they are still latching, then they only latch for a moment before then pulling off abruptly, crying in distress and then refusing to relatch. Mums in this situation often tell me that they feel such a strong sense of rejection and such deep sadness, and feel totally helpless. Milk is in there, they know it, but they can’t get their baby to take it. Bubba is crying, mama is crying, the mum feels she has no option but to then get the bottle of milk and feed her bubba this way. Milk is left in her breast, and her supply really does start to now go down. It’s a really tough, emotional situation.
