Feeding one bottle/day. Do I pump while dad feeds?

We're doing one bottle a day for my hubby to feed. Should I pump during that time to mimic baby eating? Or just wait to feed her the next time? LO is 3.5 weeks.

Re: Feeding one bottle/day. Do I pump while dad feeds?

  • I pump when dad is feeding a bottle of pumped milk. I find that's when I get the most milk (since baby isn't eating first) so it helps me build up my freezer stash and have milk for the next day. However, if I'm out and about, I'll just pump after a feeding later in the day to make up for that time.

  • Thanks! Yea I didn't even think about that. I'll probably get more milk out.
