BF and pumping

I had planned to EBF but after having an emergency c section and really struggling with the recovery, I’m thinking of BF and pumping so that my partner can help. I just don’t really know the right way to do it schedule wise, is there a right way or do I just pump a few times a day as well as BF a few times a day?

Pump every 2-3 hours or replace pump with a fed

@kelly thank you! xx

I’m in the same boat, I tend to pump after he has fed because I don’t want to use up the milk he needs from the other side so I rotate it

There is a group on Facebook called breastfeeding yummy mummies which support breastfeeding. You might be able to search through the posts and see what advice has been suggested? I’ve seen something on there called power pumping which might work in this situation (not sure what it is to explain though) x

Okay great thank you, I will have a look ☺️ x

I’ve found it quite useful to search for issues that I’m having and seeing if there’s anything similar on there! Best of luck x
