Pumping and nursing 2 week old

Are you pumping or nursing as often as your baby is hungry? Mine is 4 months now, but when she was 2 weeks I was either pumping or feeding her every 2 hours and I was prob only getting .75-1 oz on each side when pumping, but I was def making enough to feed her and still am. I pump once or twice a day now. I usually have about 3-4 oz a day extra. So from my experience, you’re good. But take it w a grain of salt bc I still feel like I don’t know shit lol

2-3oz at 2 weeks old is an oversupply. That’s why it’s advised not to pump before 6 weeks postpartum

really?? That would have been great for me to know. The lactation consultants at the hospital I gave birth at basically bullied me into pumping 12 hours after having a c section 🫤

it’s not commonly known knowledge. I went against advice as thought I knew better and have had mastitis more times than I can count. Over supply’s are not fun and are excruciatingly painful for mum and baby. Over supply’s cause fast letdown which can make baby have severe tummy aches, trapped wind and reflux. Your milk supply is fine and you don’t need to pump if you wanted to exclusively breastfed. Your milk supply will regulate to the needs of baby and you will make enough xx

Yeah I totally get that, I just wanted to make sure I made enough so she can have bottles when I go back to work. Definitely not planning on exclusively breastfeeding, leaning more towards exclusively pumping.

how often are you pumping? Are you doing 2 hourly or longer? X

Im doing every 3 hours for 20-25 mins, I’m also trying to put her on before every feeding
