Description

It is generally assumed that one must discard any milk that is pumped on Shabbos unless there is a medical emergency. However, in light of a recent formula shortage, many have asked to save the milk. This shiur explores the potential heter to save the milk with the use of a timer and pumping bra. This is based on a shita of the Chazon Ish.
