Re: When you pump...
1. I pump 2 times at night to empty them out. I also have begun pumping my right breast after feedings since it is lagging.
2. Yes! My left is an all-star.
3. I get about 7 ounces total per session at night. I usually only pump 10-15 minutes.
4. Little one is 17 days old.
1. How many times a day do you pump? if im working 4-5 a day if im at home twice
2. Do you have one all-star breast and one lazy one? they are about the same
3. About how many ounces do you get in one pumping? Is this after feeding or a separate pump session? seperate feeding 6, eeding then pumping 3
4. How old is your little one?almost 2 months
1. How many times a day do you pump? 6-10 times. I aim for after every feeding but have skipped the 4am and had to miss a couple for trips to urgent care.
2. Do you have one all-star breast and one lazy one? The left one is usually better
3. About how many ounces do you get in one pumping? Is this after feeding or a separate pump session? I only pump after feeding. I am lucky to get 20ml (2/3 of an ounce) on each side, sometimes less than half an ounce. Pathetic!! I'm pumping to increase my supply but it doesn't seem to be working.
4. How old is your little one? Two weeks today
1. How many times a day do you pump?
Depends on what we are doing that day. If we have a lot of visitors I end up only really pumping about 3 times a day. Otherwise I try and do about 5.
2. Do you have one all-star breast and one lazy one?
Well my left side he doesn't like to eat off of so I end up pretty much exclusively pumping that side. The right does a good job if he hasn't been eating though. So I'd say they are probably about the same.
3. About how many ounces do you get in one pumping? Is this after feeding or a separate pump session?
Say he hasn't eaten from me lately, from both sides I average out about 5-6 ounces. If he has eaten I will get about 3-4 ounces because I still get a good amount from the one boob he doesn't like.
4. How old is your little one?
He is 2 weeks and a day.
1. How many times a day do you pump? Right now I only pump in place of BFing (not in addition to), so if she's too tired to latch, I'll give her a bottle and will pump during that time.
2. Do you have one all-star breast and one lazy one? Usually the right one gets .5 - 1oz more than the left. Lately they're about the same though
3. About how many ounces do you get in one pumping? Is this after feeding or a separate pump session? The other day I got 2.5 from each side (separate session)
4. How old is your little one? Today she is one week old

1. How many times a day do you pump? Every time she eats. She has latching problems, well, has never latched, so I am exclusively pumping.
2. Do you have one all-star breast and one lazy one? The right one tends to do a little better than the left.
3. About how many ounces do you get in one pumping? Is this after feeding or a separate pump session? I think the fact she hasn't ever successfully breastfed plays a big part, because I'm only getting 2-3 oz a session. We have to supplement with formula if she is still hungry.
4. How old is your little one? 12 days old
1. Once a day, but I still skip days when it's just not convenient.
2. They're usually uneven, but it goes back and forth so I think it has to do with how the baby has drained one vs. the other.
3. I got 4 oz this morning, which is the most I've seen so far. I usually get 2-3 oz. I try to pump 30-60 minutes after a morning feed.
4. 4 weeks
I'm trying to pump just enough to let DH give him a bottle at night to try to stretch out my sleep a bit. LO is still waking every 2 - 2.5 hours, so I would kill for a good 4-5 hour stretch of sleep for me. We haven't quite done it yet, but I think we're figuring it out.
