kindestCup was created by Melanie Scholz, a breastfeeding mother with a PhD in biomechanics. Melanie felt that conventional breastfeeding products were too invasive and restrictive and that they did not adequately support her in her breastfeeding journey. She needed something more simple and reliable to collect breast milk and feed it to baby. kindestCup is a (r)evolutionary 3-in-1 breastfeeding cup, made from 100% food-grade silicone. It supports and protects breastfeeding in 3 natural and effective ways:
\n1) Hand expression
\n2) Catching let-down milk
\n3) Cup feeding<\/p>\n
Hand expression:
\nkindestCup has the perfect shape to catch hand expressed milk.
\nMelanie found pumping annoying: she didn\u2019t like how it feels and often didn\u2019t get much milk. Besides, pumps are noisy, bulky and keeping them clean is a pain. So she often turned to hand expression to manage her milk supply. Is hand expression better than pumping? In a recent survey, 92% of lactation professionals said that hand expression is equally or more effective than pumping. You can use hand expression anytime and anywhere to keep yourself comfortable and protect your supply. It works when you\u2019re stuck in traffic. It works when the power goes out. It works when baby falls asleep after nursing from one side and you have to deal with the other side in the middle of the night. To get the most out of hand expression, it is super helpful to have an ergonomic cup to catch milk dripping and spraying in different directions without having to awkwardly hunch over. kindestCup makes hand expression extra fun and easy.<\/p>\n
Catching let-down milk:
\nkindestCup is also a hand-free milk catcher. Similar to silicone breast pumps, it uses suction to attach to the opposite side while nursing and it collects any milk that leaks from the breast. If you\u2019re leaking when you breastfeed, you probably don\u2019t want milk dripping down your shirt, so catching it is a no-brainer. kindestCup has an exceptionally gentle and secure latch. It can be used in any nursing position, even side-lying. The unique flange-less design fits any breast size and shape.<\/p>\n
Cup feeding:
\nMany people use bottles to feed baby breast milk off the breast, but Melanie\u2019s baby refused the bottle. Given what we know about how bottles can interfere with breastfeeding, that\u2019s probably an appropriate response.
\nMelanie needed more and better options to feed her baby, on and off the breast. That\u2019s how her and her partner discovered cup feeding, which is completely natural for babies. Even newborns can do it. kindestCup is soft and gently molds itself to baby\u2019s lips. It makes it easy for baby to lap up milk and minimizes spills.<\/p>\n
kindestCup is the ultimate minimalist breastfeeding product! It leverages breastfeeding skills that have been used for millions of years and are as old as breastfeeding itself.<\/p>\n
Our goal is to empower breastfeeders worldwide, giving them the confidence and flexibility to support and protect their breastfeeding relationship in any situation.<\/p>\n
kindestCup embodies the following three principles:
\nEvery amount of breastmilk is perfect.
\nWe can do this! We have done this for millions of years.
\nOur babies can do this! Let\u2019s not interfere with their instincts.<\/p>\n","url":"http:\/\/www.kindestcup.com\/","url_text":"kindestcup.com","main_services":"baby gear , breastfeeding , baby feeding , breast pump , breast milk catcher , cup feeding , post,partum essential , new mom , silicone breast pump , hand expression","image_1":"https:\/\/diib.com\/featuredmembers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/kindest2.jpg","why_we":"","history":"","image_2":false,"image_3":false},"yoast_head":"\n
