Hand expressing at 36 weeks

Hi. I started at 37 weeks as this is what the midwife said to do. And for me, the syringes worked well, as at the beginning, you get a very small amount. The first day, I got 0.05ml. Second day 0.1ml. Third 0.01ml, I don't know why less. Last night, I managed to get 0.6ml. I am taking a hot shower, drying my boobs and massaging each of them for at least 1 minute. After that, try to squeeze your alveole with the thumb and pointer in a C letter position for a second or two and release. Go around your boob with this move. The trick is not to give up. Keep trying, even if in the first night you won't get anything. Don't be stressed as this will put pressure on your body, and you won't get anything out.
