Pumping stash before going back to work

curious for those ladies heading back to work that are breastfeeding - when did you start pumping to build up a milk stash?

Re: Pumping stash before going back to work

  • I've been very fortunate to have a great supply so far and started pumping when I got engorged when DD was about 4 days old.

  • I started right away.  When I was nursing (I'm pumping now) I would always pump a little bit after each feeding to increase my supply to more than he needed. Now that I am pumping I try to put away 5 ounces a day.
