The power of hand expression
Breastfeeding is wonderful but managing lactating breasts around the clock can be challenging, despite modern breastfeeding equipment.
Recent research shows that ancient hand expression techniques are still an essential skill for modern breastfeeders:
Hand expressed milk has a higher fat content than pumped milk (Morton et al. 2012)
Your baby needs milk fat to grow big and strong. If left behind in the breast, this fat can cause painful clogged ducts.
Hand expression is associated with better breastfeeding outcomes (Omekara, 2018)
You can ALWAYS rely on hand expression, which means you can do more and worry less. This makes for a more sustainable balance between breastfeeding and other aspects of your life.
kindestCup: a natural alternative to breast pumps
The only Milk Catcher for Hand Expression and MORE!
EXPRESS your milk
If you are ready to take matters into your own hands, kindestCup is for you. Take your hand expression experience to the next level. The ergonomic design promotes a comfortable upright or laid back posture and can be used right and left handed. It provides the perfect shield and reservoir to catch hand expressed milk without making a mess. While leaking usually occurs only in the early weeks or months of breastfeeding (if it happens at all), hand expression works for your entire breastfeeding journey.

CUP FEED your baby
Once you collected breast milk by hand expression or by saving leaking milk, you or someone else can feed it to baby directly from kindestCup.
Cup feeding is completely natural for babies. The World Health Organization considers cup feeding the safest, most ideal way to feed a baby off the breast because it doesn't interfere with breastfeeding. No "nipple confusion". Even newborns can do it! Also great for babies who refuse the bottle or get colicky from bottle feeding.

kindestCup is the ultimate, minimalist breastfeeding product, now considered a post-partum essential by parents and lactation professionals around the world. It was created by Melanie Scholz, a breastfeeding mom with a PhD in biomechanics.
kindestCup embodies the following 3 principles:
Every amount of breast milk is perfect.
We can do this. We have breastfed and managed our own milk supply for millions of years.
Our babies can do this. Let's not interfere with their feeding and suckling instincts.
Melanie breastfed her two children for a combined 5+ years and even donated some breast milk along the way. Melanie prioritized breastfeeding but wasn't prepared to give up on all her other interests and ambitions in life. She needed more flexibility and less mom guilt.
kindestCup is the simplest, most reliable tool she could think of for effectively managing her milk supply AND protecting her breastfeeding relationship in almost any situation. After her first baby was born, she spent countless hours designing and prototyping kindestCup. The final product was ready a few months after her second baby was born and was everything she had hoped for. She started this company and made kindestCup widely available because she wants to change breastfeeding culture and improve breastfeeding experiences and breastfeeding outcomes worldwide.
