What is Colostrum?

Normally in the last few weeks of pregnancy, a few drops or a small amount of colostrum will flow out from the mother's nipples. The colostrum is rich in nutrients, high in protein and low in fat, it is easily absorbed by the newborn. Preparing to collect it in advance has great benefit for your baby.

The Haakaa Silicone Colostrum Collector is a world-first design, giving mums the option to express colostrum antenatally and postnatally in a safe, easy-to-use storage solution.

Colostrum is traditionally collected in single-use syringes often made from harmful plastics. Our collector and cup are both made of 100% medical-grade silicone, which means no toxins can leach into your colostrum. They're easy to use and reuse, making this set the ideal option for mums both before and after birth!
Warm your colostrum directly in the collector, then feed into the corner of your baby's mouth using the soft nib. Alternatively, measure out your desired amount of colostrum into the sterilised feeding cup and feed using the raised feeding end.

• 1 x Silicone Measuring & Feeding Cup
