The hospital where I volunteered used the very small cup (a membrane of some
sort) from the new Ameda/Hollister pumps to collect colostrum. It is about
the size of a half-shot glass, fits right into a collection bottle and the
colostrum can be fed straight from the little cup, as it is very soft and
flexible.
I am not terribly familiar with those Hollister pumps so I can't tell you
exactly what the piece we used is called, only that it usually goes
somewhere else on the pump (and I think we had one where it belonged in
addition?).
Sorry to be a dead end but maybe someone else knows what I'm talking about.
The cup can be sterilized if someone is concerned about that.
