It stinks sometimes staying up late, but I like to keep my production up, especially now that DD is not nursing as much. </p> <p>@enjollah: I don't pump that early but I do pump in the morning before nursing DD when I can &amp; I always get a LOT then </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-pump-after-your-lo-goes-to-bed-or-in-the-middle-of-the-night#post-68092 Mon, 06 Feb 2012 13:09:19 +0000 Mrs. Bee 68092@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@enjollah: yes i definitely get way more milk at that time. it's probably because you got some nice sleep to build up your supply! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-pump-after-your-lo-goes-to-bed-or-in-the-middle-of-the-night#post-68007 Mon, 06 Feb 2012 12:22:48 +0000 enjollah 68007@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've read/learned that the highest milk production is early in the morning (1-5am?)....is there that much of a difference than pumping in the day time? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-pump-after-your-lo-goes-to-bed-or-in-the-middle-of-the-night#post-67891 Mon, 06 Feb 2012 11:04:07 +0000 chopsuey 67891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to when my boobs used to get super engorged. Haven't pumped in about 4 months! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-pump-after-your-lo-goes-to-bed-or-in-the-middle-of-the-night#post-67884 Mon, 06 Feb 2012 10:58:18 +0000 Cchoi4 67884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm weaning LO right now but when I had supply issues, I felt like i was constantly on an uphill battle. So I would nurse at 7am, pump at 10am, 2pm, 5pm, 8pm and twice during the night, once around midnight/1am-ish and again around 4am. Those two sessions slowly became just one session at 1am (when I decided it wasn't worth the lost sleep). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-pump-after-your-lo-goes-to-bed-or-in-the-middle-of-the-night#post-67873 Mon, 06 Feb 2012 10:43:30 +0000 T.H.O.U. 67873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never got much so I figured it isn't worth it. She nurses at 5:30 and 7:30 at home, and then again around 2 am. Not too bad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-pump-after-your-lo-goes-to-bed-or-in-the-middle-of-the-night#post-67848 Mon, 06 Feb 2012 10:09:38 +0000 mrs. wagon 67848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to pump every single time RJ took a bottle, and once he started sleeping thru the night and I was confident in my milk supply, I'd pump just once a night, before I went to bed around midnight. So the last nursing session would be around dinnertime, then he'd have a bedtime bottle, then I'd pump at midnight, then big morning nursing session around 6 or 7. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-pump-after-your-lo-goes-to-bed-or-in-the-middle-of-the-night#post-67839 Mon, 06 Feb 2012 10:02:55 +0000 Rubies 67839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't...But I should. LO goes down by 6pm and doesn't wake until 1am...7 hours is too long but I'm so tired that I just deal with the discomfort. :S </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-pump-after-your-lo-goes-to-bed-or-in-the-middle-of-the-night#post-67835 Mon, 06 Feb 2012 09:57:34 +0000 Mrs. Bee 67835@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I pump four times during the day while working. I produce exactly enough for her daily feeds, and haven't frozen anything in a long time. So lately I've added a fifth session (on the side she didn't nurse on) after Olive goes to bed for the night.</p> <p>Do you pump at night? </p>
