    I would pump when you get home from tafe - just don't freeze it until the next morning in case you do need some overnight.

    Hi,

    Express after you get home from TAFE. You will get a good volume for your next TAFE night and your breasts will thank you for it. Stash it in the freezer. If your baby wakes up, even 1/2 and hour later you will have made plenty more milk for him - no need to use what you just expressed

    You'll probably find that if you pump at 9:30 and he wakes at 10:30 for a feed as he normally does in a day or two your breast have adjusted and you'll have a completely full feed for him an hour later.

    Congrats on going back to TAFE and good on you for continuing to provide your DS with your bm while you are away from him!
