Pumping before will do nothing, you'll only get small amounts of colustrum.

I have heard the nipple stimulation can put you into labor.

Yeah, pumping can cause very strong contractions & start labor.

I expressed before birth because I had paranoia he would need colostrum and I wouldn't be able to produce once he was born and needed it to gain weight. I pumped while he was in the NICU recovering from surgery so he could have my milk through a feeding tube. I continued pumping for 6 months while nursing and filled a deep freeze as backup in case anything happened to my milk before he turned 12 months. When I unexpectedly got pregnant 7 months post partum, I was sooo glad to have that stash when my milk turned back to colostrum and baby boy naturally weaned. :-)
