R usually nurses long enough for 2 let downs. I know if I pump I can get a third at like the 18 min mark but he never nurses that long!
How many let downs do you feel while nursing?
-
I usually just get one letdown. But that could be because she only eats for at most 10 minutes per breast.
-
I'm in my 18th month of nursing and never felt a letdown!
-
I usually only get one letdown (@oliviaoblivia: not that I feel it - I just know it's happening based on the frequency of the baby swallowing), but sometimes I get a second if Logan stays attached long enough.
-
Only ever felt one.
-
@oliviaoblivia: Same - I never felt it ever.
-
1-2. I usually only feel during nursing, not on the pump.
-
Usually just one these days. She doesn't nurse very long these days!
-
In the beginning I didn't feel it at all, now I usually feel just one... Since the pump part fogs up I cant never really tell how many times I stopped flowing and started back up again either!
-
Seriously have no idea
-
I have never felt a letdown.
-
I've never kept track. I don't feel them as strongly as I did when I was starting out though.
-
No idea. 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.
-
Just one but she only nurses 4-5 minutes on one boob.
-
just 1 while nursing. while pumping i would get to 2.
-
I never did feel a letdown while nursing. Sounds like that's not uncommon, though.
-
one during nursing because my LO is really efficient at emptying, but I get 2-3 let downs during a pump session.
-
I never feel a letdown nursing. 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.
I can get three letdowns pumping if I go for 45 minutes but ain't nobody got time for that.
