Got 2ozs from both sides, and that was mostly hand expressing since I get more out that way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/oh-the-irony#post-764524 Mon, 06 May 2013 20:57:12 +0000 hilsy85 764524@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's super normal! I can hardly get anything if I pump after I nurse him (LO is 6.5 months old). If I pump before bed, I get 3-4oz. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/oh-the-irony#post-764500 Mon, 06 May 2013 20:44:39 +0000 cheert16 764500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started pumping last week (LO is 3 weeks old) and I pump after our morning feeding nd I get about 2 ounces. I am trying to figure out how to start a freezer stash with only 2 ounces a day and continuing feeding my lil guy! I go back to work on thurs (only for a few hours) so I also need enough to cover 1-2 feeding while I am gone too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/oh-the-irony#post-764472 Mon, 06 May 2013 20:32:53 +0000 aprk 764472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Back when I was exclusively pumping (and HATING it) I was getting around 900mL a day. A was only drinking a bit more than half that, so I started a little freezer stash.</p> <p>Now that he is breastfeeding (yay!), I can barely pump anything! I used my hand pump just now and barely got 15mL, whereas before I would have gotten at least 50mL. I guess my body adapted quickly to his needs!</p> <p>For those of you who breastfeed, do you also pump? How much do you get? </p>
