I know everyone is different but i just want to see what others get. if you pump how often do you pump and for how long at a time and how much milk do you get?
I don't pump anymore, but remember it also depends on how old the baby is. When your baby is older your body evens out and only produces what is needed.
At first just pump every two hours that way you get it going and start with good supply and I always pumped until there was pretty much nothing coming out. Your body usually starts producing what your baby needs. Or u can just pump of you know how much ur lo usually drinks
I only pump 3 times a day, usually once in the morning, afternoon, then before bed. I nurse him first, then pump. I pump anywhere from 2-5oz each time depending how much he nursed. How is everything going?
Now that my lo is 14m I only pump once and its only on the days I work(4x a week) I only usually pump 4oz out..my supply is starting to diminish. But when she was younger, I still only pumped on the days I worked, but I would pump 2x, once before I went to work and second was half way through my shift. I would still pump halfway through, if I wasn't coming home and feeding her instead, she stopped refusing milk out of a cup or bottle a few months ago and we are tying to get her back so I can completely stop now. When she was little I would get any where from 6-8+oz at a time..wish I still had that supply.
