Tbh I would not, I expressed one day and the next day I gave birth, a week early! Now it could all be a coincidence and not related to expressing at all, but it could also be linked.. I realise I’m not being very helpful, but thought it’s best to share my experience x
i would advise against using a pump, hand expressing from 37 weeks is fine. the pump can one be painful as you don’t have a fully milk supply yet and two induce labour
You can pump from 37 weeks, as you're classed as "full term" but it may cause contractions to come on. Although, I never had them
