 |
| A team of engineers, scientists, doctors, nurses, lactation consultants and a vast panel of moms helped develop our breastfeeding and breast care products. All Nursing Necessities™ products contain state-of-the art technology to provide comfort, efficiency and convenience for all your nursing needs. |
 |
 |
|
| We offer a range of breast pumps, from manual to hospital-grade electric, that are designed to provide ultimate comfort, efficiency, hygiene and convenience. |

|
| Soft Comfort® Massaging Breast Cups |
| What makes our breast pumps so special is the unique, patented Soft Comfort® soft, silicone breast shield. |
|
| Comfortable & Effective: The Soft Comfort® Breast Cup gently plumps nipples and the surrounding milk ducts, minimizing pulling or stretching of nipples. Our pumps actually provide gentle massaging action combined with wide ranging suction levels for ultimate comfort and efficiency, encouraging a fast let-down and milk flow. Research shows this combination is the most efficient at expressing milk. |
|
| The Soft Comfort Breast Cup was designed to work more like a baby than other breast cups. To simulate the feeling of a baby's palate on the breast, the Soft Comfort Breast Cup has a raised bump in the silicone shield that is designed to provide added pressure at the milk ducts around the areola of the breast. The silicone shield moves in to apply suction strength to the breast and moves out to apply massage to the breast. |
|
| The soft breast shield also has a wider opening to comfortably fit more nipple sizes. Research shows that 77 percent of moms need a wider nipple opening to pump comfortably and efficiently. |
|
| Hygienic: The Playtex® Soft Comfort® Breast Cup also allows for unsurpassed hygiene. Each breast cup is part of a "closed system" to guard against germs and bacteria and prevents your milk from backing up in the system. Plus, the breast cup has been designed for easy disassembly, easy access for cleaning and easy re-assembly. All parts are dishwasher and sterilizer-safe for cleanliness. |
|
| Convenient: With the Soft Comfort Breast Cups, our breast pumps have the patented dual screw ring to fit ALL Playtex® bottles, both wide and narrow, and most regular standard bottles. |
|

|
| Electric Pumps |
|
| Comfortable & Effective: The Embrace™ Deluxe Double Electric Breast Pump offers a unique, patented, hospital-grade system that is quiet and compact, yet it provides wide ranges of speed and suction: five levels of suction strength and five levels of speed so you can choose the most comfortable and effective pumping combination for you. The suction levels range from 75 mmHg to hospital-grade levels (greater than 220 mmHg). The speed levels range from 40 to 60 cycles per minute. |
|
| The Petite Double Electric Breast Pump provides three levels of fully adjustable suction at the twist of a dial. This small, discreet pump has one speed to allow pumping control with little effort. |
|
| Convenient: Both the electric pumps are designed for ease of use and convenience. They are small and have convenient storage compartments. The Embrace™ pump also features easy-to-use push-button power controls, easy-to-read indicators and software-controlled speed and suction memory. |

Playtex® Embrace™ Pump found to feel gentler and pump more naturally
Led by Dr. William Sears, a first-of-its-kind national research survey gathered feedback from both moms and lactation professionals on the design and use of the Embrace™ Breast Pump. The author of more than 30 books on childcare, Dr. Sears is an Associate Clinical Professor of Pediatrics at the University of California, Irvine, School of Medicine. |
|
| Key Findings: |
|
- 70% of moms and lactation professionals surveyed would recommend the Embrace Breast Pump, especially for working moms.
- More than half of moms surveyed felt that the Embrace Breast Pump would help extend the time they would breastfeed.
- The Embrace Breast Pump was considered more comfortable, convenient, efficient and effective than other pumps moms had used. And, it was considered attractive and stylish, too.

| Playtex® Manual Breast Pump |
| The patent-pending Manual Breast Pump has many features, combining ultimate pumping comfort with a unique, ergonomic design. |
|
| Comfortable: This pump was designed for better ergonomics and comfort. Most manual pumps require mom to lean forward to allow gravity to help the breast milk flow and collect. Not the Playtex® Manual Breast Pump. Our breast shield’s unique ergonomic angle allows you to sit upright while you pump, reducing backache and promoting proper posture. |
|
| The manual pump was also designed to cause less hand fatigue. The short stroke allows you to exert less effort than the longer hand stroke of other manual pumps. And, the patent-pending, cushioned thumb loop provides a more comfortable grip for if you have smaller hands. |
|
| Efficient: The pump reaches the highest suction levels of any manual pump due to the dual-action combination of suction and massage. This combination is the most effective method for expressing milk. |
|
| Convenient: The manual pump is extremely easy to assemble, easy to clean and easy to use. Its small size makes it portable to bring anywhere easily and conveniently. |

| Soothing Gel Pads |
| According to reports, as many as 96% of women experience some degree of nipple pain or discomfort in the early weeks of breastfeeding. Our Soothing Gel Pads were designed to help soothe and protect sore, dry, cracked nipples. |
|
| Our Soothing Gel Pads use the same hydrogel technology that has been used in wound care management for approximately 20 years. Hydrogel technology works by creating a moisture chamber and bacterial barrier, producing an environment that supports the healing process and can minimize the formation of scars. |
|
| In the Soothing Gel Pads, this technology is combined with the moisturizing benefits of Vitamin E and 100% Lanolin to help promote the healing process. And, the pads provide an immediate cooling sensation to relieve discomfort. |
