Analysts’ Views on Global Breast Pumps Market:

Breastfeeding mothers have several breast conditions and other breastfeeding difficulties, such as breast engorgement, poor attachment, breast refusal, and nipple soreness. These difficulties can cause problems with breastfeeding. In May 2020, According to Nemours, a nonprofit children's health system, breast pumps are in high demand because most women stop breastfeeding their newborns early. Symptoms such as swollen mammary glands indicate breast pain due to excess milk production. Removing excess milk is the only option to prevent bloating. There are only two ways to remove excess milk from your breasts in a healthy way: hand expression and a breast pump. Breast engorgement is one of the major factors expected to drive the demand for breast pumps during the forecast period. Sometimes the mother experiences severe nipple pain when sucking the baby, which is caused by poor attachment of the baby. Therefore, poor installation is another factor that increases the demand for breast pumps.
