Has anyone harvest colostrum with an electric pump?

I don’t think they recommend electric pump for harvesting, but I’m not entirely sure. I’ve been hand expressing, I’m not making enough yet to electric express or use anything really x x

I really struggled harvesting by hand and, despite trying for ages over many days, I couldn’t get a single drop. Just used my Pippeta pump to try it out and got 9ml of colostrum in about 20 minutes using a combination of the massage and pump function!

Yep 3oz on my first attempt. I was shocked 😂😂

I feel like I need to get a pump now 😂 I got 1ml over 24 hours!!! Exhausting

i’ve been using my pump for collecting colostrum. i tend to get about 4ml from pumping for 15 mins as opposed the 30-40mins it would take by hand

@Ellie haha same!

Yes, using my pump 10 mins each side getting about 5ml each time currently 😊

Yeah I used it with my first and would get between 5-7ml each night. I only pumped once a day, after a warm shower/compress and a massage x
