Introducing our Colostrum Collection kit – the first of its kind in South Africa! As a new mom, you want to give your baby the best possible start in life. Colostrum, the first form of breastmilk your baby will drink, is a thick, sticky, yellowish liquid that is high in antibodies and antioxidants. It’s the perfect nutrition to build a strong immune system for your little one. The benefits of colostrum are numerous. It is low in quantity but high in calories, making it the perfect food for your baby’s tiny tummy. Your baby only needs a few milliliters per feed right after birth. Colostrum also helps reduce the risk of infections and illnesses in your baby.

To make sure you’re able to collect colostrum easily and efficiently, our Colostrum Collection kit is an absolute must-have. With your midwife or gynecologist’s approval, you can start your breastfeeding journey from 36 weeks gestation. Our kit is also the perfect bag to take with you to the hospital to hand express in the first few days after giving birth. Hand expressing during this time will reduce trauma to your nipples, which is why it’s so beneficial to your breastfeeding journey and your overall comfort.
