1. Introducing the AVENT ISIS™ Breast Pump
The AVENT ISIS Breast Pump is a breakthrough in breast pump design.
Its silicone diaphragm provides 100% reliable suction, whilst the Let-down
Massage Cushion™ naturally imitates your baby’s suckling action to provide
fast milk flow – silently, comfortably and gently. The pump is easy to
assemble, discreet to use and all parts are dishwasher safe.
Doctors recommend that breast milk is the best nutrition for babies during
the first year, combined with solid food after the first 6 months. Your milk
is specially adapted to your baby’s needs and contains antibodies which
help protect your baby against infection and allergies.
Your AVENT ISIS Breast Pump will help you breastfeed longer. You can
express and store your milk so that – whether you are out for a few hours,
taking a well deserved rest, or back at work – your baby can still enjoy the
benefits of your breast milk, even if you can’t be there to give it yourself.
As the pump is so silent and discreet you can take it with you anywhere,
allowing you to express milk at your own convenience and maintain your
milk supply.
Since the AVENT Bottle and anti-colic silicone teat is specially designed to
mimic breastfeeding, your baby will switch easily between breast and bottle.
So working mothers can continue to breastfeed morning and evening and
another carer can give their expressed breast milk during the day.
