It’s more likely that you’re pumping more than you used to and your body hasn’t gotten adjusted to it yet so you’re still producing the same amount but it’s being divided into more pumping sessions. And you’re getting a good amount in the morning because that’s when your hormone levels are naturally the highest.
Inconsistent Supply
This is my first week back at work since I had my daughter, so I am pumping a lot more than I used to. Before I was just pumping a few times a day after feedings to get a store of milk in my freezer, and I would typically get a few oz per pumping session. Now that I am back at work I’m pumping every few hours and getting maybe 20 mL per breast during the day, but in the morning when I pump after her feeding I will get 2-4 oz per breast.
Has anyone else had this problem? Will I start getting more as my body gets used to the pumping schedule?
