Abstract
A soft carrier for a breastpump is disclosed. The carrier includes a cushion made of a soft, malleable outer material, for at least partially enclosing a breastpump and associated accessories. One or more breast shields extend outwardly from holes in the cushion. The soft carrier provides a more comfortable experience for the mother during pumping.
