Breast Pump Brainstorming
Increase Excess of milk
-Need to do research on how to mimic the suckling of a baby
Pumps a lot on the first cycle
Cycles of baby suckling could increase
Pump is strong enough so that it can suck out as much milk as possible, without harming the mother.
Comfortably
adjustable for different breast sizes
Can make some sort of additive (cushion for nipple)
materials used
could use plastic to go around the nipple so breast shield does not get dirty
rubber breast shield
Could use soft cotton as breast shield
Comfortable enough for the mothers to be able to use this tool without not feeling safe. Comfortable enough for mother's to want to keep using the breast pump, and recommend others.
Pumping Breast Milk
pumping both breasts at same time
amount of time it takes to pump the milk
can use a squeezable dog toy
mimics baby suckling
Not Visible
tube insides the straps of a satchel that lead into a certain pocket.
Make it smaller
The thin tube should go down spine and connect to plastic bags on the back pockets
Get thin tub that milk will flow through
Tube is shield by bra
Sport Bra or Bra
Storing
pump the milk directly into the storage for milk
Make sure that after milk is pumped, that it is refrigerated or stored so that, if needed, can be used later.
Can use a mall insulated satchel purse
can use glass mason milk jars
make less parts
Plastic Bags
