When did you ladies start pumping your milk? I want to start pumping and storing. 3 days post partum…

My supply just came in today. I'm 3 days postpartum. Since my baby got used to being bottle fed I have to pump until he gets used to the boob again

You really shouldn't start pumping until your supply is established, which is around 4-6 weeks pp. It's really up to you though, whenever you feel comfortable starting give it a try

ditto @mybabyloves

offer only the boob, use a nipple shield my halp, offer before baby is hungry so he's more patient with it.

Not true about the pumping until 4 weeks, you can start pumping as soon as day 2, even if it was colostrum is what the lactation nurse told me at the hospital and once your supply is in go ahead and pump freely.

@vivalakats That's what I thought because my lactation nurse told me something similar. She said even if I only did it to help my milk come in if he wasn't latching and nursing for long enough I could do that..I just wanted other mommies' opinions :)

thanks everyone!
