First time mom here...induction next week question about pumping

Ellie 💙

I’m a first time mom, and I am hoping to be successful breastfeeding. My question is, how soon after your milk comes in do you start pumping to build your supply? And is it best to just pump after baby eats every time? I will have to go back to work and baby will go to daycare, so I will need to be able to keep up with what he needs while I’m away. Sorry if these are silly questions, no one in my family has breast fed so I feel clueless!
