For those of you who have welcomed your first baby, it’s doubtless been a time of growth, wonder, and no little amount of wondering how exactly all of this has happened. Those who are expecting their first might be wondering what exactly they’re in for, and those who have seen the arrival of a second (or third, or fourth) little one will be feeling as though they’ve got this sorted – or maybe it’s just brought a whole different set of challenges to muddle through.
No matter which group you fall into, there might be something in our top five bestsellers that would suit you and your family. So today, let’s look at which Haakaa products were the most popular in 2024!

1. Gen. 2 100ml Silicone Breast Pump
The original Haakaa pump, the Gen. 2 Silicone Breast Pump with Suction Base is still hugely popular – and for good reason. Affordable and practical, this pump has helped many mothers express milk for myriad reasons. Whether you want to build your supply, create a stash for later down the track, share feeding duties, or in regions where it’s possible to donate your milk, the Gen. 2 can turn out to be your best friend.

2. Baby Nail Care Set
Do you ever get worried about trimming your newborn’s nails? It’s something many parents face anxiety about, and it’s completely understandable. Their nails are sharp and often leave them with scratches, but at the same time, the thought of going near those tiny fingers with scissors or clippers can be nerve-wracking, to say the least. That’s where the Haakaa Baby Nail Care Set becomes an absolute lifesaver. Between the two rotation speeds and directions, the graded filing levels, and the pressure-activated arrest system that stops you from accidentally pressing too hard, this set makes trimming your baby’s nails stress-free and so much easier than it used to be. We even have alternative versions for you – the Happii Bear version is rechargeable.

3. Ladybug Silicone Breast Milk Collector
The Ladybug is almost as famous as the pump itself – and that’s because it’s so very, very helpful. Many mums, especially in those first weeks after baby arrives, find their milk supply is all over the place – and this can lead to the dreaded leaks. More than one person has found themselves looking down to see a damp patch on their shirt, where some of that milk your body has worked so hard to make has had nowhere to go other than out. Not only is it messy, but it seems a waste to just let it disappear into your clothing. Nursing pads can be a great option, but the Ladybug has an added advantage – it keeps your clothes clean and dry and lets you collect that leaking milk, adding it to your stash. On top of that, though, it also creates a barrier between your nipples and your bra or shirt – and for many in those early days, that alone can be a sanity saver as your breasts get used to having baby latch on so frequently. The Ladybug comes in three handy sizes – 40ml, 75ml, and 150ml – though these sizes have nothing to do with breast size. Instead, choose which Ladybug is best for you based on how much leakage you’re experiencing. If it’s only a little bit, go for the 40ml; if it’s huge amounts, the 150ml might be best for you. And if it’s somewhere in between? That’s right, the 75ml is your best bet.

4. Breastfeeding Nipple Shield
Another great item to have on hand if you’re one of the people who are struggling with more severe nipple damage that is leaving them unable to breastfeed, the Breastfeeding Nipple Shield gives your nipples a much-needed break while still allowing you to continue your breastfeeding. The unique extended teat suctions to your breast and puts space between your skin and baby’s mouth, giving you time to heal. There is the choice of two different teat shapes, with the orthodontic teat more closely resembling a mother’s nipple during feeding and the bottle teat being more suitable for babies transitioning from breast to bottle. In addition, the orthodontic teat also comes with one of two bases – the round base is ideal for those who are new to nipple shields as it’s easier to attach and use, while the triangle base is suitable for experienced nipple shield users who would like to provide more skin-to-skin contact during feeding time. We recommend only using these nipple shields in combination with advice from your maternity care provider or a lactation consultant, and we only recommend they be used short-term while your nipples heal. For those who have only minor discomfort that is not affecting their ability to breastfeed successfully, our Traditional Nipple Shields may be a good alternative.

5. Fresh Food Feeder
Introducing solids to your baby can be an exciting yet nerve-wracking time. The Haakaa Fresh Food Feeder helps make the process safer and more enjoyable for both parents and babies. Its unique silicone pouch allows you to introduce fresh fruits, vegetables, and other solids without the risk of choking, as the small holes in the pouch let only tiny, digestible pieces pass through. Easy for little hands to hold, the Fresh Food Feeder encourages self-feeding, develops motor skills, and allows your baby to explore new tastes and textures at their own pace. Cleanup is a breeze, as the feeder is made entirely of soft, food-grade silicone that’s easy to sterilize and reuse. Whether you’re starting with mashed bananas, steamed carrots, or ripe berries, the Fresh Food Feeder ensures a fun and stress-free journey into solid foods for your little one.
