Paano Mag-express ng Gatas: By Hand vs. Breast Pump

Paano Mag-express ng Gatas: By Hand vs. Breast Pump

May dalawang paraan para mag-express ng gatas—mano-mano gamit ang kamay o gamit ang breast pump. Parehong may pros and cons depende sa lifestyle, budget, at comfort ng nanay.

Kapag breastfeeding mom ka, darating talaga ang time na kailangan mong mag-express ng gatas—pwedeng dahil nasa work ka, para may stock sa ref, o para ma-relieve ang full na dibdib. Dalawa ang common na paraan: hand expression at breast pump. Pero alin ba ang mas okay para sa’yo?


Ano ang Hand Expression?

Ito yung paggamit lang ng kamay para i-massage at i-compress ang breast para lumabas ang gatas. Wala kang gadget na kailangan—hands-on lang talaga.

Pros:

  • Walang gastos, libre lang.

  • Kahit saan, pwede gawin—no need ng electricity o battery.

  • Nakakatulong ma-relieve ang full na breast agad.

Cons:

  • Medyo mahirap sa simula, kailangan ng tamang technique.

  • Mas matagal at nakakapagod minsan.

  • Pwedeng hindi ganoon karami ang makuhang milk sa isang session.


Ano ang Breast Pump?

Ito naman ay gamit ng manual o electric pump para mas mabilis at mas madali ang pag-express ng milk.

Pros:

  • Mas mabilis makakuha ng gatas, lalo na kung electric.

  • Pwedeng hands-free depende sa pump.

  • Mas marami kadalasan ang nakukuhang milk.

Cons:

  • Medyo pricey ang pumps, lalo na yung electric.

  • May parts na kailangang hugasan at i-assemble.

  • Kailangan ng power source (kung hindi manual).


So, Ano ang Mas Okay?

Depende talaga sa lifestyle at comfort mo, Mommy. Kung practical at on-the-go ka, baka mas bet mo ang hand expression. Pero kung gusto mo ng efficiency at mas maraming output, mas convenient ang breast pump.

Pwede mo ring pagsabayin—halimbawa, gumamit ka ng pump para makapag-ipon ng stock, tapos hand expression naman kapag nasa labas ka at walang pump.


Quick Tips para sa Mommies:

  • Practice makes perfect – lalo na sa hand expression, hindi agad madali sa umpisa.

  • Stay relaxed – mas mabilis lumabas ang gatas kapag relaxed ang body.

  • Cleanliness is a must – siguraduhing malinis ang kamay o pump parts bago mag-express.


???? Kaya mommy, walang “one-size-fits-all” dito. Ang importante, yung method na nakakatulong sa’yo at sa baby mo.

Hazel Paras-Cariño

Hi, I’m Hazel Paras-Cariño—Head of Content at theAsianparent Philippines, proud mom of two, and passionate storyteller at heart. With over 11 years of experience in content strategy, digital marketing, and editorial leadership, I now lead our content across web, app, and social platforms to serve one of the most important audiences out there: Filipino parents. Whether it's creating informative articles, engaging mobile experiences, or meaningful social conversations, I believe content should connect with both data and heart.

Before this role, I worked as App Marketing Manager and Web Content Editor at theAsianparent, and previously contributed to NGOs, tech, and creative industries. I hold a Master’s degree in Integrated Marketing Communication, but my real education comes from balancing deadlines, diapers, and the daily chaos of motherhood. When I’m off-duty, you’ll find me painting, dancing, or exploring imaginative stories with my kids—sometimes all at once.

Let’s keep creating content that informs, empowers, and uplifts families.
