MILK SUPPLY & BREAST PUMP TIPS AFTER RETURNING TO WORK
Always latch-on whenever you’re with the baby. Don’t be tempted to give a bottle of EBM just because you have extra stash.
Nurse your baby before & after work. Work out a feeding schedule with your baby’s caregiver to make sure your baby’s not given a full bottle an hour or two before your arrival, so that your baby can empty your breasts more efficiently.
Keep a regular pumping schedule at work. If you don’t have pumping breaks during your work hours, consider hands-free pumping using hands-free bra or hands-free kit like Cimilre, Youha Youcup or Freemie.
Do extra pumping at home every weekday & weekend; even it’s just one extra session in the morning or evening. You may nurse & pump simultaneously – nurse on one side and pump on another side. You may also just do hands-free pumping while doing your chore.
Let the baby nurse through the night. Practise nursing while lying down, and once you have mastered this, you can still get enough sleep & rest while this goes on… Baby who nurses at night usually needs lesser milk during the day too.
Eat healthy & stay hydrated. Drink plenty and keep a balanced diet. Take some milk boosters like lactation cookies, lactation smoothies, fenugreeks, etc if you like.
Do power pumping bootcamp if you must.
A reliable breast pump certainly helps too. Here are a few can never go wrong choices for your considerations, which Fabulous Mom offers 3 Years Service Warranty – which speaks a lot on the reliability of the machine.
