Milk Saver Pump (Manual Breast Pump)

The Pigeon Milk Saver Pump is a manual breast pump and milk collector designed to help breastfeeding mums save every drop of precious breast milk. It’s made from high-quality, food-grade silicone rubber and features a unique flange shape that sits comfortably on the breast to collect milk that may be released from one side while your baby feeds on the other. The pump also works as a simple manual express pump to assist milk let-down or express milk when needed, making it budget-friendly and versatile for occasional use.

Absolutely. Many breastfeeding mums experience a milk ejection reflex (let-down) that causes milk to leak from the non-feeding breast during feeds. The Milk Saver Pump is specifically designed to capture that let-down milk so nothing goes to waste. Instead of using tissue or cloth, you collect it hygienically for storage and later use. Its suction base also helps reduce spills once removed from your breast.

Yes. This manual pump is made from soft, heat-resistant silicone that’s gentle on the skin and comfortable to hold against the breast. Before first use and after each session, simply wash thoroughly with warm soapy water and sterilise using boiling, steam, microwave or chemical sterilisation methods you already use for baby feeding items. The smooth design makes cleaning straightforward, and the silicone material is built to handle temperatures up to around 120 °C.

Using a breast pump to express milk even manually like with the Milk Saver Pump, can help support flexibility in your feeding routine, whether you’re heading back to work, want to share feeds with your partner, or simply need a break. It’s a great companion to expressed milk storage and bottle-feeding, especially when combined with other feeding tools designed to support smooth transitions.
