Liquid gold, ready when your baby is. Midwife-developed and mum-supportive. Get ready to feel confident and prepared with this midwife-developed Colostrum Harvesting Kit, designed to help you collect and store your colostrum from 37 weeks of pregnancy.
Often called 'liquid gold', colostrum is the nutrient-rich first milk your baby receives in the first few days after birth. It's packed with antibodies and goodness your baby needs most in those early moments, and collecting it ahead of time is a great way to support your breastfeeding journey.
The easy, seven-step midwife-written guide takes you through the process because learning to hand express during pregnancy is a powerful, useful skill. Your body is already doing something amazing, and My Expert Midwife is here to help you feel ready.
Safe to use from 37 weeks of pregnancy, it's designed to support both you and baby. A thoughtful and practical addition to your birth prep kit.
Each kit includes:
- 5 x NHS-approved sterile syringes and caps
- 5 x Freezable labels for safe storage
- A step-by-step guide to colostrum harvesting
- A full-size Nipple Balm (worth £12.50) to support expressing and breastfeeding
Good to know: If you have a cervical stitch or have been diagnosed with a low-lying placenta/placenta praevia, speak to your midwife or doctor before beginning colostrum harvesting.
Nipple Balm Ingredients: Lanolin, Cocous Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil.
