breastfeeding moms! I know it is suggested to pump after feedings, but sometimes I have to pump before. baby will be ready in another hour to nurse is that okay?

have you tried pumping one side while nursing on the other ? sometimes its a little tricky to figure out how to juggle a baby and a pump but now that I started I love doing it. then when he's done feeding I put the pump on that breast to make sure I'm getting all the milk out. then both breasts are ready when he's ready again

Yep, I've had that happen when pumping. It's almost impossible to empty your breast completely when pumping due to the fact that pumping can't get out as much milk as baby suckling

ok I was just worried. cause at night she nurse every 2-3hrs vs day time every 4 so I just pump the other breast after I know she's done and not gonna nurse the other breast. then the next time I have her start on the breast that I pumped last @santistevanmommie @mamabearluken

I used to do the same thing.

but because my breast are ready every 2-3 hours I pump every 2 if she doesn't nurse. if she's awake she will nurse but if she's sleep she'll nurse every 3-4 during the day. @santistevanmommie

Yeah my daughter still nurses a lot like that now at almost a year. But my milk has regulated and I stopped pumping
