I have my new fandangle Medela breast pump but im not sure when is the best time that I should be expressing.
I am trying to save up some milk for the freezer so I can leave her with DH or he can take over for a feed here and there. I do know my iron levels are very low and that this can affect supply but I have been taking Fenugreek the last few days and I am feeling a bit "fuller"
Her pattern is feed for as long as she likes off one side, nappy change, play etc then as she starts getting grumpy and sleepy I offer her the other side and she drops off to sleep.
I have tried expressing after a feed and only got like 5mls off both breasts is this normal?
Should I just completely stick to the one side and then express off the other?
How do you do it? Any suggestions gratefully received
