Is it okay to start pumping now ?

Question

I’m currently 36weeks3days. I have an induction date set for the 17th. 
I was wondering if it would be okay to start express pumping and saving the milk I get. My boobs leak a good bit and it’s all went to waste 😞

Answer

no. at 36 weeks you’re still considered premature and expressing could put you into labor.

Answer

Please wait mama ! 🥺

Answer

My induction date is the same!

Answer

Don’t pump, but you can collect and save the colostrum that’s leaking! That stuff is liquid gold. I’ve seen it do amazing things. When my son was born dead, he obviously was discolored for sometime after he was revived. He wasn’t allowed to have actual food (just a nutrition line) until 80 hours after he was born. Seeing the color come back into his face and hands and everything else when he drank the syringes of it I had saved for him… was enough to sell me on it. There are other amazing things it can do too! 😎

Answer

No pumping at all. Just get milk catchers.
