I think I can feel one in my left breast which is my better producer when I pump but it could be in my head because I can see it.</p> <p>I can get three letdowns pumping if I go for 45 minutes but ain't nobody got time for that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-let-downs-while-you-nurse#post-2132331 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 16:00:28 +0000 LatteLove 2132331@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>one during nursing because my LO is really efficient at emptying, but I get 2-3 let downs during a pump session. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-let-downs-while-you-nurse#post-2132025 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 11:10:34 +0000 meredithNYC 2132025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never did feel a letdown while nursing.

Strangely, I only feel letdowns when the baby or the pump are NOT attached to me. Mostly when I'm engorged, trying to whip a boob out, baby is crying, or as I assemble the pump parts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-let-downs-while-you-nurse#post-2131894 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 09:31:01 +0000 miramira 2131894@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never kept track. I don't feel them as strongly as I did when I was starting out though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-let-downs-while-you-nurse#post-2131868 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 09:15:23 +0000 autumnlove 2131868@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have never felt a letdown. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-let-downs-while-you-nurse#post-2131857 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 09:02:40 +0000 FaithFertility 2131857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Seriously have no idea </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-let-downs-while-you-nurse#post-2131846 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 08:54:47 +0000 snowjewelz 2131846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In the beginning I didn't feel it at all, now I usually feel just one...

I know if I pump I can get a third at like the 18 min mark but he never nurses that long!</p> <p>How many let downs do you feel while nursing? </p>
