So it seems my right boob has stopped working, just expressed for 20 minutes and got about 10 ml, when I did it the other day I got loads out about 50 ml, to be fair I haven't fed baby on the right today and haven't expressed either so could be why.

It just as me worried it won't come back.

Does any one have any ideas other than the normal keep expressing and feeding on it, I really have no idea what I am doing!

Thanks x x x
 
From my experience with expressing, I've noticed it's a fragile thing, if you're a bit stressed it's very difficult to have letdown. The pump is extremely primitive compared to the baby's suction.
 
I hardly got anything for about 6 weeks, think you need to be relaxed and not stressed about it. Your body will adjust just try again in a day or so
 
I have days like that too, the pumps aren't as efficient as baby. Make sure you have lots to drink. Xxx


On my iPhone - so cant see tickers :(
 
Even after bf and expressing for months I would still have this issue- especially if I stressed out! It helped me to relax and either look at LO or think about him- it seemed to help with let down reflex xx
 
i had to stop using one boob for a whole day it was that sore, i expressed a bit with the pump when it got too full and started using it again the next day and supply was fine
