@kjpugs: For me I think the most I ever got in a day with my first was 6 ozs! Oh man I totally hear you about handling motherhood better without pumping. When I stopped the first time ... there was sooo much freedom... I didn't have to worry and stress out about pumping.
This time around since I'm making a good amount I feel better about provide LO breast milk but I still feel like it sucks and debate almost daily weather to quit or not.
I would totally join your club. I will say I totally admire women that breastfeeding comes naturally to because I totally suck at it.

@Raindrop: @kjpugs: Sounds like my pumping now... I'm hoping it'll increase because it's still early? I don't know how much she gets at the breast versus me pumping.

@LindsayInNY: EP'ing though, that was IT. Since you are BF, you are likely to get less pumping because she's taking some from the source too. Keep that in mind
And a baby is the most effective thing to drain a breast- way better than a pump.

@kjpugs: I'm hoping that's the case! I've decided this is harder than labor lol.

I didn't pump all that much while I was on maternity leave, tho I should have to really build a stash. I remember getting maybe 2 oz each side pumping for ~20 min? My usual time is 20 min and I get 4-6 oz. Bad days 2-3 oz.
