Question about pumping at night
I just had my daughter on the 20th. I am pumping because my nipples are very easily damaged and even so they still bleed a bit here and there when I pump.
I want to express that as of right now I am getting up to 130mls when I pump. I do so every 2-3 hours throughout the day (sometimes a little longer depending on how crazy my day is). I know how important it is to keep a consecutive time on pumping.
Would it be okay to continue pumping through out the day like I do and not pump through the night or would that dwindle my supply? My girl is very fussy at night and sometimes we don’t get to bed till very late in the morning. Sleep is essential and if it means me skipping a pumping session so I’m not falling asleep throughout the day (I have a three year old and am a stay at home mom), I will do so.
I just need some advice. I did that last night and that’s when I got the 130mls which is the first time I’ve ever gotten that much.
