How much do you pump?

Question

I'm just curious if my supply is big enough... How much do you pump each session? And how often do you pump? I'm pumping every 2-3 hours and I'm getting 6oz each time... Its starting to get exhausting but I don't wanna stretch my sessions to 4-5 hours and loose what supply I do have! How does everybody manage the loss of sleep during the night from pumping?

Answer

That’s great! I pump around 30-35 ounces a day. I began with only 15-20 ounces a day and did a ton to get to 30. I used to pump every two hours but now most days I pump 6-7 times. I decided to quit worrying over my low supply issue and focus on spending time with my baby. I’m much happier now. If I have my husband home with me once a week I will pump every two to three hours because I have the time. You’re doing great!

Answer

That's a great supply! I follow this account on Instagram. Not for their supplements, but for all the amazing information they share. You can always slowly try spacing your pumping sessions a little further out and see how  it changes.
