BACKGROUND ART
It is often difficult and time consuming to use a breast milk pump because the user must support the breast milk pump in position against the breast. It would be desirable, therefore, to have a breast milk pump support harness that included a mechanism for securing a breast milk pump in place in a manner such that there is no need for the user to hold the breast milk pump in position against the breast during use.

It is thus an object of the invention to provide a breast milk pump support harness that includes two detachable collection bottle support assemblies and a brassiere assembly; the brassiere assembly including two push-up breast support cups, two breast cover flaps—each securable over a respective push-up breast support cup, four collection bottle attachment fasteners—two positioned adjacent each push-up breast support cups, and four collection bottle attachment straps—two positioned on either side of each of the push-up breast support cups; each breast support cup including a V-shaped, nipple access opening; each of the detachable collection bottle support assemblies including a pair of brassiere fastener sections that companionately attach to two of the four collection bottle attachment fasteners.
Accordingly, a breast milk pump support harness is provided. The breast milk pump support harness includes two detachable collection bottle support assemblies and a brassiere assembly; the brassiere assembly including two push-up breast support cups, two breast cover flaps—each securable over a respective push-up breast support cup, four collection bottle attachment fasteners—two positioned adjacent each push-up breast support cups, and four collection bottle attachment straps—two positioned on either side of each of the push-up breast support cups; each breast support cup including a V-shaped, nipple access opening; each of the detachable collection bottle support assemblies including a pair of brassiere fastener sections that companionately attach to two of the four collection bottle attachment fasteners.
