Breast milk pumping machines. Two pumping machines for obtaining and storing the milk of a lactating mother's breasts. At left is a modern pump,while at centre is a 30-year-old model. Breast milk is considered an ideal mix of nutrients & antibodies to feed and protect a baby. Such machines are used to obtain and store milk for later use. They are also used to maintain lactation (milk production) if breastfeeding is not immediately possible,like when a baby is born prematurely. They are also needed if the mother or baby has problems with the normal breastfeeding process. Photographed in 2002,at St. Richard's Hospital,Chichester,West Sussex,England | |
