testing breastpump??

Question

How many of you ladies tested your breast pump before actually having to use it???? 31 w 1 d. And just got mine in.

Answer

Nope. Could turn it on I guess but pumping before hand can lead to contractions so I haven't touched it since I unpacked it

Answer

Testing mean using it for less than a minute to see if shields fit, testing for air leaks, and making sure it is functioning well. One minute on breasts will not cause any damage or serious contractions.  Think about the moms that breastfeed while pregnant.  Nipple stimulation to try and cause labor is some intense stuff basically massaging the nipple itself between you thumb and forefinger to almost the point of pain for five minutes straight.  Stopping for 15 and doing the other one, alternate like that 4- 6 times 2-3 times a day so a minute or two on a pump won't hurt a thing

Answer

If your past a certain point, making sure doc oks it, it's perfectly safe to pump before baby! And in some cases is recommended! If done properly it won't induce labor! You might get a few very mild contractions but not true labor contractions! Do some research on it!!!!!!!
