@annadoran09, get a milk saver or a haaka! They are far more efficient at getting it out, don’t worry. Pump output is not indicative of supply.
@terieg, @laniejay, I tried to pump and my milk isn’t coming out but my daughter is getting it out when she starts to eat my other tit starts to leak
@terieg, 😂😂 I may or may not be having adult beverages this evening 😬
@laniejay not in the post. You must mean someone who commented. Either way, my comment is referencing after delivery. Honestly, I never heard of pumping beforehand. I don't mind admittimg that I didn't even know it was possible.
@laurentimm3264, that’s not good advice to give. Pumping before your due date can put you into labor
@terieg, and it tagged the wrong person — sorry just fixed it
@laniejay I'm confused... I was certain we were talking about after delivery. Why wouldn't she be?
I waited a few weeks even though they say wait 6. I know I am an underproducer so I needed to stimulate more. I only pumped once a day though.
They say it’s best to wait until 6 weeks postpartum so your body can regulate to baby’s demands and you don’t end up with an oversupply
@terieg I started like a few weeks before my due date and froze it
I started in the hospital too. Turns out, colostrum is good for later when the baby gets sick, so I pumped immediately & froze it all.
@laniejay, what’s that
