Can hakaa help low milk supply? Can you wear one the full day?
I wouldn’t advise that. As there is a suction all around the nipple, I would be wary of discomfort & short term potential damage to the skin. For low milk supply, drinking plenty of water & frequent feeds/pumping (manual or electric, the Haakaa won’t be as effective) is the best advice I can give. If that does not help after a couple of days, maybe meet with a lactation consultant. I hope it all goes well for you ❤️
How do u put the teeth down?
There is a small switch at the back of the machine. Behind the feed dogs/teeth. So bottom back left, it’s a flat switch. You will see it if you look at the back of the machine. Hope that helps.
Thank you 🙏
ME SALVASTE LA VIDA ENTERA TE AMO
Wow. Not only did removing it that way absolutely not work and ruined my popsocket, but also damaged my phone case 👎💩
You’re brilliant!!
Thanks Mama Banana. You came up first when I was searching for how to remove it. I just got it but realized I positioned it too high. You're a star, thank you. Does the glue last long?
Same, I put mine to low though
Should it feel like it's squeezing the life out of your breast and nipple? Everytime I use it, it hurts so much to the point I think I'm doing it wrong 😅
Oh, I don’t think it should feel like that. Maybe try warming up the breast & the mouth of the Haakaa with your hands. Are you collecting anything with it?
hate the music ...
Thank you so much it really helped
This is so helpful, thank you!! 💗
Hiii, I brought new brother sewing maching.funny thing is i don’t know how to stitch.but i am trying to learn how to be. I just tried but the stiches came out with soo many knots.😢
Same and I had a hysterectomy over 10 years ago
Wonderful video ❤ thank u! I've had like 4 different rings by now (3 broke on their own and 1 I broke myself) and was wondering if a pop socket would be better. For now I'm staying with the ring for a better support on my hands. 😊
Soooo helpful! thank you!!
제거 힘들었는데, 최고다 감사합니다
Hi after i press the foot the button not able to close properly , what problem in that i cant understand , pls reply me
It’s hard to tell. Maybe the stud or centre part of the snap is sticking out too much, stopping it from closing? I wish there was a feature in YT to share photos.
Didn't work 😢
Thank you for the great information!
You’re welcome ☺️
Hi. So after two months you were able to get your daughter to latch?
I actually ran into the breastfeeding consultant at my maternity hospital. She gave us some, one on one time and helped my daughter to latch. As she was older, that helped show her that she could do it and we were able to feed pretty easily after that. I had a lot of help in the first 2 weeks, but as a newborn with difficulty, she just wasn’t ready to put in the work. Sometimes a little time helps as they get a bit stronger. Good luck ❤️
I’ve had never ending problems with tension settings and have had to have it serviced and needed help endlessly. Not sure why it randomly does things, but I’ve sadly found it disappointingly, hugely unreliable!
I actually found the same. After a year, I upgraded to another machine.
@@MamaBanana oh thanks for replying.. everyone keeps implying it’s me not threading properly and not the machine! I noticed the bobbin casing moving around so much, the thread lifted out! When I pull it apart, the bobbin housing unit is held by a small magnet!!
That’s so frustrating. I bought mine through Amazon. I got in touch with customer service and was able to return and get a full refund! Hope you manage to get the issue sorted, or better yet, a refund 🤞
@@MamaBanana It’s beyond the warranty, so going to get a SINGER this time!
Arrrgh! I cannot get my machine to pick up the bobbin - I've triple checked the direction of the thread and its going around the small hooky bit inside and im getting really frustrated now 😢 Can anyone help please?! 🤞🏼
Sometimes it helps to give it a clean. So I would unscrew the bobbin plate & get a clean paint brush to gently sweep out all the lint & dust. That has worked for me before & worth a try. Good luck ☺️
Can a woman have a period bleeding, without a uterus?
Hi don’t believe so. Since my hormone induced periods have returned, I’ve not had any bleeds. Post op, the doctors also confirmed that I would no longer have period bleeds. I hope you recover quickly x
Thank you!
❤️
Thank you! ❤️
I’d like the hole made too ….
What is the reason for this? Iam going thru the same experience...
I did a little research on it as I was quite surprised myself. As the ovaries are still intact, they can still produce and release these ‘period’ hormones, causing cramping, bloating, and other PMS symptoms even though the uterus has been removed. I hope that helps to answer some of your questions. Take care x
I had a total hysterectomy with stage 4 endometriosis and I feel the same way every month
Is it milk suction pump or just a milk catcher ?
It creates a light suction that it can be used pump for relief, but I don’t think that you can empty the breast with it & it will be a lot of work to keep squeezing out the air to keep the suction going. It is used mainly for catching let down milk as you are feeding. Hope this helps ☺️
Es una genialidad, felicitaciones!!!!!!!! Muchas muchas gracias!!!!!!
Muy bienvenida ☺️
Helped in 5sexonds thanks so much
Whoop 🙌 Happy to help ☺️
Great mam
Thank you for your kind comment ☺️
Does it really work well ?
I loved the Hakka pump. Worked really well for me to collect ‘free’ let down milk while feeding ☺️ Will you be giving it a try?
I finally found a use for a staple remover! Awesome!
Whoop 🙌 ☺️
Mil gracias ☺️ gracias gracias me salvaste, pensé que mi tela estaría arruinada por siempre
Muy bienvenida ☺️
Fantastic! You just helped save my garment. I put the snap on the wrong side and couldn't get them off. Whew!!
Whoop 🙌 Thrilled this helped ☺️
Do you have any kind of spotting ? I had a partial hysterectomy a month ago and now I’m having all the period symptoms plus very mild spotting. 😢
I had my hysterectomy just over 2 years ago. I’m 90% sure I didn’t have spotting, at least not a month after. It may be worth following up with your healthcare provider. I hope you recover quickly. Look after yourself x
Do you know why the milk has to be the same temperature when storing? Also can I collect over 2-3 days and combined in the freezer?
Heard from another video it is due to bacteria
Thank you!!! I'm glad I searched, I couldn't figure out what to do. I bought plastic snap pliers, but I'm having problems getting the correct pressure. Most of my attempts don't work so far, the snaps just won't "snap" together. I guess I need more practice. Grrrr!!!! 🤔😊
Awesome close ups. Thanks so much ❤
Glad you found it helpful. Happy snapping ☺️
I have Kam93 and the green one but my dies doesn’t work for what I am looking for to do . Can you help ?
Not a bad reviewer. My wife already needs a separate room for cosmetics.
thank you for sharing such a good idea😊
Aww thank you for your kind comment. Happy snapping ☺️
THANK YOU for explaining this!! I’ve watched a handful of videos and none of them mentioned the downward pressure.
You’re welcome ☺️

Keeping it simple ☺️
This works so well ! You’ve just saved a camouflage jacket with shiny gold snaps from going back to the thrift store where I bought it. I’ve already removed two snaps using this technique, and will replace them all with less glam black snaps. Thanks!
Wohoo 🎉 ☺️
Just had to read your comments to find out the type of ring holder. I have never had a holder on the back, and I think this just might be the one for me. Thanks!
I love the ring holder. Perfect angling for videos 😄 Thanks for commenting. Happy shopping 🛍️ ☺️
Hi. How many layers are each of the inserts?
Hi, There seems to be two layers on the Charlie Banana 🍌, the hemp ones from Little Lamb 🐑 is just one layer.
That's interesting. Never heard of a 1/2 layered hemp inserts, only for flats and prefolds. I'm aware of 3,4 and 6 layered hemp inserts. Does a 1 layered insert hold anything?
