Pump to give a night bottle
Hello, I want to pump a stash of milk for my partner to do a night feed. I do pump every morning when my little one naps. I get like 5 oz how do I get more?! Do I pump more times in the day?I just find my supply isn’t so good after lunch and fitting it in is hard!! I just can’t see how I can get more so I can go out for a whole afternoon or evening ? Baby is 4 months

I personally find it better to pump between 2am and 5 am (that’s when your body produces the most ) and anything before 2pm, at least twice. I had the same issue as you did and I ended up on a video explaining this and it helped me loads. Also, keep pumping even if you don’t get as much milk as expected cause that stimulates it
Yep I get up at 3am usually to pump and that’s when I get the most! A

I pumped right after my baby fed and I would 1) start getting more per feed and 2) was able to slowly start building a stash Obviously not after every feed! I just picked one and consistently pumped at that time of day
