Willow has launched the Willow Wave, the first wearable manual breast pump designed for true comfort, mobility, and discretion. Building on the brand’s legacy of pioneering wearable pumps, the Wave introduces a new era in hands-on breastfeeding support, catering to the needs of today's parents.
The pump features an ergonomic handle to reduce hand fatigue, hospital-grade suction with two modes for improved milk flow and relief, and a soft silicone flange that accommodates different nipple shapes. A 5 oz. container with a splashguard and easy-pour spout helps prevent leaks, while a 34” adjustable tube allows for greater movement.
Each Wave also connects to the Willow app, offering personalized guidance and expert-backed support to help parents pump with confidence.
