Do you pump every 3 hours for your baby or breastfeed then pump to keep up your supply?

Answer

Just breastfeeding.

Answer

When I was exclusively pumping, I was pumping every 2-3 hours. Baby managed to latch now and just breastfeeding and pump at night as she sleeps through the night.

Answer

My baby is breastfed and I only pump in the mornings to help with engorgement.

Answer

Pretty exclusively pumping every 3 hours, but he latched and ate today, so I will see how that goes and change around my routine to whatever works best for him.

Answer

I breastfeed when I’m home and pump in the morning, at night, and three times while I’m at work. I have an oversupply though so I have to pump in addition to breastfeeding or I get clogged ducts.

Answer

Depends on how old. At a week old I was nursing then pumping in anticipation of going back to work. With this one I’ll wait until she’s 2 weeks old because I relied on bottles to much with my son and eventually exclusively pumped and it killed my supply in the end. We’re going skin to skin as long as possible this time

Answer

I don’t pump at all, baby gets plenty just from nursing and doesn’t need to supplement with anything beyond that 🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

I exclusively breastfeed with the very occasional bottle because he still seems extremely hungry.  I have begun pumping in the morning to begin a stash for when I go to work.
