BabyBuddha Breast Pumps are the favorite pumps of more than 50,000 breastfeeding and exclusively pumping moms.
Our manual breast pump is designed to be lightweight and easy to take with you on the go while being able to control the level of strength with your own power. This flexibility allows you to pump discreetly & comfortably while you’re running errands, working, traveling, visiting family, and more! It’s recommended to have a manual pump on hand for a softer option during periods of sensitivity that may occur during your journey.
The manual breast pump’s ergonomic handle makes it easy to use, while its massage cushion makes it highly comfortable. We designed this hand pump with moms who have sensitive breasts in mind! The gentle suction modes guarantee productive pumping even for those with breast sensitivities that can be associated with sore nipples or Mastitis.
Our manual breast pump has two pumping modes to help get your breast milk flowing:
-
Gentle Expression Mode: This setting, controlled by the user, applies less pressure, stimulating letdown. This is a great setting if you would like a softer start and less pull strength.
-
Strong Expression Mode: Great to use once you have experienced a letdown to achieve maximum milk expression.
The BabyBuddha Manual Breast Pump is highly affordable. They are also covered by the majority of health insurance plans and are also FSA and HSA-eligible. (You can get started on the insurance process by filling out these coverage forms.)
Our two-year warranty covers all manufacturer defects for two calendar years from date of delivery.
What Are the Benefits of a Manual Breast Pump?
Easy To Use and Comfortable: Our ergonomic, easy-express handle and adjustable settings make our manual breast pump extremely simple to use, saving you precious time. Our massage cushion ensures that pumping sessions are extra comfortable for moms with sensitive breasts and plugged milk ducts.
Quiet: Our manual pump is virtually silent when in use. This is one thing moms love about this portable pump. Use right next to your sleeping baby without fear of waking them or anywhere else that you need to be discreet and quiet while pumping.
Extra Portable: New moms and seasoned moms alike agree that our breast pump is ultra-portable! Just toss it in your diaper bag, briefcase, or suitcase and go. The portability of our manual breast pump allows you to take it wherever you need to.
Relieve Pressure: Engorgement is no problem with your BabyBuddha manual breast pump at hand. If you’re away from your baby and can’t nurse at the moment, grab your manual pump to quickly relieve the pressure that mounts between nursing or pumping sessions.
Adjustable Power Settings: Gentle expression gives you a softer pull strength, and the strong expression helps encourage maximum milk expression. Our manual pump provides two pump modes. Level 1 is gentle, and Level 2 encourages maximum milk expression. The BabyBuddha Manual Breast Pump has a tight-sealing flange and two adjustable natural suction settings to help your pumping sessions be highly productive.
BPA Free: Our manual breast pump is BPA-free so that you don’t have to worry about harsh chemicals affecting the breast milk storage stockpile you’re building.
Easy To Sanitize: All parts of your manual breast pump can be flash boiled (for no longer than 60 seconds) and are top-rack dishwasher safe! You can also sanitize them in a countertop bottle sterilizer.

How To Use a Manual Breast Pump
-
Before pumping breast milk in any capacity, thoroughly wash your hands.
-
Wash all pump parts thoroughly before every use, including the first use.
-
Once you have your pump assembled and cleaned, you are ready to express milk:
-
Make sure that you are sitting or standing comfortably. It is best to try and be as relaxed as possible.
-
Place the flange (or breast shield) over your nipple. Your nipple should be in the middle of the shield to ensure comfort when pumping.
-
Begin to squeeze and release the handle to start pumping.
-
Adjust the suction level if needed.
-
Once you are finished pumping, remove the attached baby bottle and transfer it to breast milk storage bags or another form of safe breast milk storage.
-
Once again, wash and sanitize all pump parts.
Tips and Tricks for Manually Expressing Breast Milk
-
Consider pairing your manual breast pump with a lactation massager for maximum milk flow. You can also massage your breasts by hand before pumping.
-
If you experience hand fatigue while using a manual breast pump, stop for a minute and massage your hand or run it under some warm water.
-
The type of pump you choose is very important. Read our manual vs. electric breast pump guide to decide which is best for you.
