Iggs and other pumpers

What time of day do you get the most volume?  I know prolactin levels are highest in the wee hours of the morning, but do you also get higher volume.

  • I always get the most ounces first thing in the morning. It's been that way for me since the very beginning :)

  • definitely the morning.  I can get almost 2x of what i get in the afternoon.
  • How much are you getting? I still only get about one ounce in the afternoon. In the mornings I nurse first thing so I do not know how much I get!
  • Definately more in the am.

    And Katia - if you're nursing first, an ounce or two is good.  I pump exclusively (unfortunately...bad latch) and my big pumps are 10 - 12 ounces in the morning and 5 - 6 ounces in the afternoon.  I'd be closer to an ounce or two if I were nursing first, I'm sure.
