What is claimed is: 1. A breast cup for collecting breast milk expressed from a user's breast in a container, comprising: a housing for engagement with the breast; a supply channel having an upper end and a lower end, said upper end being in fluid communication with said housing; a holder extending from said supply channel, said holder having a base defining a first securing member and a second securing member, said first and second securing members extending from said base in a direction opposite said housing so that said first securing member is radially inward of said second securing member and said lower end extends into said holder radially inward from said first securing member, a barrier member connected to said holder that is located inside of said housing; and a insert secured to an inside of said housing and having an upper portion and a lower portion, said upper portion capable of being in contact of a breast of a user and said lower portion being disposed between said holder and said barrier member to prevent contact of said lower member with the user's breast. 2. The breast cup as in claim 1, wherein said insert is a flexible insert sealingly secured to said housing. 3. The breast cup as in claim 2, wherein said flexible insert is sealingly secured to said housing so as to form to form an air volume and a liquid volume, said air volume being defined between said flexible insert and said housing, said liquid volume being defined within said flexible insert so that said liquid volume is in fluid communication with said supply channel. 4. The breast cup as in claim 3, further comprising a breast pump in fluid communication with said supply channel. 5. The breast cup as in claim 4, wherein said breast pump comprises a manual pump. 6. The breast cup as in claim 4, wherein said breast pump comprises an automatic pump. 7. The breast cup as in claim 4, wherein said breast pump is configured to supply pressure to said air volume, said pressure being selected from the group consisting of a positive pressure, a negative pressure, and any combinations thereof. 8. The breast cup as in claim 1, further comprising a breast pump in fluid communication with said supply channel. 9. The breast cup as in claim 8, wherein said breast pump comprises a manual pump. 10. The breast cup as in claim 8, wherein said breast pump comprises an automatic pump. 11. The breast cup as in claim 1, wherein said supply channel further comprises a one-way valve at said lower end. 12. A breast cup for collecting breast milk expressed from a user's breast in a container, comprising: a housing for engagement with the breast; a supply channel extending from and in fluid communication with said housing; a holder extending from and in fluid communication with said supply channel; a first securing member extending from said holder in a direction opposite said housing, said first securing member being configured to secure the container to the holder when the container has a first diameter; a barrier member connected to said holder that is located inside of said housing; an insert secured to an inside of said housing and having an upper portion and a lower portion, said upper portion capable of being in contact of a breast of a user and said lower portion being disposed between said holder and said barrier member to prevent contact of said lower member with the user's breast; and a second securing member extending from said holder in said direction opposite said housing, said second securing member being concentric with said first securing member, said second securing member being configured to secure the container to the holder when the container has a second diameter. 13. The breast cup as in claim 12, wherein said insert is a flexible insert sealingly secured to said housing. 14. The breast cup as in claim 13, wherein said flexible insert is sealingly secured to said housing so as to form to form an air volume and a liquid volume, said air volume being defined between said flexible insert and said housing, said liquid volume being defined within said flexible insert so that said liquid volume is in fluid communication with said supply channel. 15. The breast cup as in claim 14, further comprising a breast pump in fluid communication with said supply channel, said breast pump comprising a manual pump or an automatic pump. 16. The breast cup as in claim 15, wherein said breast pump is configured to supply pressure to said air volume, said pressure being selected from the group consisting of a positive pressure, a negative pressure, and any combinations thereof. 17. The breast cup as in claim 12, further comprising a breast pump in fluid communication with said supply channel, said breast pump comprising a manual pump or an automatic pump. 18. The breast cup as in claim 12, further comprising a lower end of said supply channel extending in said holder. 19. The breast cup as in claim 18, wherein said lower end is concentric with said first securing member. 20. The breast cup as in claim 18, further comprising a one-way valve positioned on said lower end of said supply channel. 21. The breast cup as in claim 12, wherein said first securing member comprises a first thread configured to secure the container to said holder when said container has the first diameter and said second securing member comprises a second thread configured to secure the container to said holder when said container has the second diameter. 22. The breast cup as in claim 1, wherein said first securing member comprises a first thread configured to secure the container to said holder when said container has the first diameter and said second securing member comprises a second thread configured to secure the container to said holder when said container has the second diameter.
