The hospital had me nurse and then pump straight after to help my milk come in. I didn't pump after every time, cause it's painful to do it every time. But by the time I left the hospital I was at least getting 5ml each side

@sunflowerchildmamaa, thank you!

@jolynnwilliams, that's great! Yeah just try to stay away from the pump for a little. If you have a any other questions feel free to message me :) ❤️✨

@sunflowerchildmamaa, alright thank you. She actually woke up to feed so I massaged first then put her on and it feels better lol

Yes! Hand express until 6 weeks! It's recommended bc that way your milk supply is regulated. Your body starts to produce based on baby's needs. But if you don't feed for a good amount of time, odds are you will get engored. You can put a warm cloth before hand expressing right now to make the flow of the milk easier mama :)

@milky_mama2017, will you message me with some tips?

Yess but don't pump until 4 to 6 weeks 😞 its going to be tough for the next week or so but put baby to your breast every 2 hours and hand express

@milky_mama2017, I can't wait till I get a pump 😔

@milky_mama2017, lol. Gotcha.

Yes 😂

@milky_mama2017, kinda like milking a cow in a way?

It's hard to explain, try to look on YouTube

@milky_mama2017, how do I do that

Try to hand express
