8 1/2 month old is on a nursing strike.... help!!?? I tried pumping for the first time to try and keep my supply up but I didn't get anything even when my breast was full of milk . I don't understand why I am not getting anything while pumping . It's making me really upset. Is this the end of my nursing journey ?!:,( I didn't want to give my babe formula .
Try hand expressing, it may take longer but it sometimes is more effective than pumping in the long run.
