how much should i be pumping?

Question

My baby is 11 weeks. I'm pumping 5 oz. a day (morning) in one sitting. The rest of the time, I just breastfeed her directly. My right breast produces more milk than the left. (4 oz on the right, 1.5 on the left). How can I even them out so I'm producing an even amount per each side? Should I be pumping more?

Answer

My son is 12 weeks, and that's EXACTLY what I'm pumping. About 4-6 extra ounces every day (to freeze and save) on top of what he eats all day. And I think it's pretty common to have a Lazy Boob - my Right is lazy and lets the Left do all the work. 
I 10000% recommend the "milk savers" product. They're little cups that you put on whichever boob Baby isn't nursing on, and it saves whatever leaks out. Turns out, on top of being lazy, ol' Righty was leaking up to an ounce per feeding, which was going straight into a pad and then into the trash. Not anymore!!!

Answer

I pump 12oz in the morning and 8 oz in the afternoon my right produces a little bit more than the left.
