MyMilk was inspired by our founders’ experiences of motherhood.

When we were pregnant, we both had access to constant monitoring, check-ins, and support. But that immediately changed after birth: we were left to figure out breastfeeding largely on our own. 

And like many women, together with moments of joy and excitement we both also struggled immensely. Between the two of us, along this strong and unparalleled connection offered by breastfeeding we also experienced the ups and downs with just about every common breastfeeding problem there is, including low milk supply, poor infant weight gain, inflammation, and pain—causing frustration, anxiety, and sadness that came with struggling with something that we expected to come naturally.

We eventually overcame many breastfeeding challenges and breastfed our children for a cumulative 9 years.

But many women are not so lucky: 

9 out of 10 mothers report to face breastfeeding difficulties

6 out of 10 women report to stop breastfeeding before they desire

We set out to change this

As life science PhDs with vast research experience, We knew that human milk harbors the data to support a beneficial proactive approach. We established MyMilk Laboratories LTD: the first clinical-standard laboratory dedicated to the analysis of human milk.

Experts in breast milk analysis

As experts in breast milk analysis, we observed how much valuable information is contained within breast milk. After 5 years of running MyMilk, with thousands of milk samples processed, we created MyLee: the first-ever home monitoring system for assessing breastfeeding through breastmilk sensing at the moms hands.

Our Goal

Our goal is to unlock the data within breast milk to help mothers overcome breastfeeding challenges and feed their babies with confidence.
