Might have been because I nursed til the end and was tandem nursing though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pumping-output-the-second-time#post-1320076 Sat, 04 Jan 2014 21:46:38 +0000 autumnlove 1320076@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Great with both kids! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pumping-output-the-second-time#post-1320058 Sat, 04 Jan 2014 21:32:42 +0000 Mrs. Tiger 1320058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am getting way more, but I'm using a hospital grade pump still (about 4 months pp) and am EP instead of BFing and just pumping at work. For DS1 I normally got about 6-9 oz total (pumping every three hour at work), this time I get 8-13 oz (every 4 hours during the day and the 13 is from 6 hours overnight).</p> <p>Also, no one told me this would happen, but I had to go up TWO breast shield sizes! Apparently your nipple is a muscle that gets bigger with use, just like any other muscle :-/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pumping-output-the-second-time#post-1320027 Sat, 04 Jan 2014 21:09:29 +0000 MapleMoose 1320027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Good question. I'm interested to hear if supply increases naturally the second time around. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pumping-output-the-second-time#post-1319896 Sat, 04 Jan 2014 19:56:25 +0000 regberadaisy 1319896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For those that pumped for the second child as well. How, if any, did your pumping output change? </p> <p>Did you do anything differently? </p> <p>With M the most I've ever gotten was 7oz in one session and that was only a handful of times. My regular output was about 4oz per per session. </p> <p>I'm really hoping for a better output this time around! </p>
