Pumping before baby arrives?

Question

So I leave quite a bit of colostrum. I have been since about 15 weeks. I’ve been told to start pumping now to get my flow going and to start a stash. Is it okay for me to do so? I want to EBF for at least the first 9 months. I really want to have a good supply for when I go back to work in case I fail.

Answer

They say to not to till at LEAST 37 weeks cuz it can cause labor in SOME cases. Not everytime but it can. I'm 37 weeks and 3 days and I started but notice it brings on some strong contractions at night.

Answer

It's a good question, I'm going to ask my doc on Thursday. 
A little tmi but when my hubby and have intercourse, he sometimes plays with my breasts so much that it can stream out but know that it could bring contractions so when I finally notice it I make him stop.. I'm 31 weeks

Answer

Instead of pumping you could hand express into a small medicine cup or a Hakkaa if you have one! (But if you don’t have a Hakkaa you MUST get one! 😊)

Answer

Your milk supply won't come until you pop your baby out. It can come instantly in hours or a day or 3.
