Let’s review the Haakaa colostrum collector. You can use this silicone syringe to easily collect and store colostrum. It’s one of my favorites!

Let's review the Haka Colossum Collectors. So you can use this to collect Colossum while you're pregnant. They come in a little sterilized package. Also comes with sticker labels as well. So let me open this up. I have the 4 ml pack. So there are a couple different sizes that you can get. This is what it looks like, fresh on in the box. So this stores up to 4 mls of Colossum. They have a 2 ml one they just came out with. I believe they also have a 6 ml and there's a couple different ways that you can use these. So the whole thing is a silicone material. One way that you can use this is by taking off this little cap here and you can actually express Colossum and put this right up to the breast. If you squeeze the chamber it creates section and you can actually draw that drop of Colossum right into the tube. That's great if you're just starting to collect Colossum and you're seeing very small droplets come out. If you're seeing bigger droplets come out it might be a better idea to take this cap off. So you can pull the cap off and then you're able to put this up against the breast and just squeeze those drops of Colossum right into the tube. When you're done filling this up put your caps back on. Put this in a Ziploc container or some other closed container and toss it in the freezer. So I really like these because there's a lot of different ways that you can use this. It also makes it so easy for you to be able to give your baby that Colossum as well. Same thing I would just take off this cap here and then you can squeeze drops into your baby's mouth. You can even do this while they're nursing at the breast. Just put this in the corner of their mouth and give them some drops that way. It's also nice that it's silicone so you're avoiding microplastics as well. Let me know if you have any other questions about this.
