How to build a supply during growth spurts?

acbfreire · July 2012

LO is nursing non-stop and she is on the 3 wk growth spurt. I wanted to start freezing BM but right now I can only pump enough for her daily bottle.

When do you pump when they are in a growth spurt? Should I pump one side if she doesn't take both in one feeding? I do not want to end up with an oversupply.

Right now I only pump during her longer naps.

It's recommended that you don't start building a freezer stash until one month for that reason. You need to let your body regulate itself first.
