Another expressing question.

[T84]

S still not latching on and with daddy going back to work have made the decision to solely express. I know if you up the frequency you express you will obv get more milk but no matter how often I do it, I always get 2oz out right and 1pz out left, will this always be like that or if I keep expressing every couple of hours I will eventually get more in a sitting? Thanks

I never get more than that, I was wondering the same.
It's quite frustrating isn't it. I had a manual pump and wasn't getting anywhere fast. So bought an electric one yesterday, I'm hoping my supply increases to.
Good luck x

Aw hopefully your electric one will make a difference, it seriously was a lifesaver f

Oops!! It was a lifesaver for me, I feel so much more relaxed cos I'm not doing all the work, and it does the job in 20 mins good luck x x

That's all I get too, and it takes as good 20-30 mins per side to get it. Then she guzzles it down in 5 mins and demands the same again. Clearly she can get more out in one sitting than my pump can!

Aw that's annoying, my back supply is slowly dwindling. Have about 16oz back up but want a bit more to relax properly. Of not, formula top ups it is as she gets bigger x x
