Pumping... The Last Straw: Day 5
After doing some research on the La Leche League's website, I realized that for optimum milk production, I need to be pumping every 1-2 hours... are they even kidding? When am I going to find all that free time? Ugh. Well, I am committed to building back up my milk supply so, I wrote out a pumping schedule today and here's how it went:
My period is almost over so, I am hoping I'll see an increase in supply over the next few days once Aunt Flow has disappeared and after a few more days of pumping this vigorously.
- 7am 3.5oz
- 9am 1.0oz
- 11am 2.0oz
- 1pm 2.0oz
- 3pm NO PUMPING ~ I was out running errands
- 5pm 2.0oz
- 7pm BREASTFED ~ I fed Emily so no pumping
- 9pm 2.0oz
- 11pm NO PUMPING ~ I was just too tired so I went to bed
