A breast pump system includes a one-size-fits-all funnel for fittingly receiving the breast of a lactating woman. In some examples, the funnel has a superelliptical opening that provides a smooth, naturally occurring vent at the funnel's inlet. The vent places the breast-to-funnel circumferential seal closer to the narrow end of the funnel, rather than at the funnel's wider inlet. The seal being closer to the nipple ensures that the nipple remains centrally aligned within the system's nipple-receiving receptacle, regardless of the size and shape of the breast.
