expressing milk using breast pump

how many months he is? i had used pump in this first 4 months for removing excessive milk as her appetite was less. i used manual pump of Phillips brand. u need to take precautions while breast pumping..

my son is 1 month old.. can u plz explain the precautions that has to be done

in the begining the babies appetite is very less. and milk production is excessive slowly the appetite will increase month by month so in the first and second month in every 2 - 3 hrs u have to feed. as much as u feed and he sucks milk production will increase. same as this pumping is nothing but sucking so again production will increase. like this cylce continue.. preacutions are if u are pumping more than 3-4 times daily the nipples will get crack.. also baby will develope habbit of bottle instead of breast and again if u use this in daily routine extra work will add cleaning sterlising pump and bottel frequently that become tedious job.. so i will advise instead of using it as daily practice for bottel feed. use the pump to clear the breast.. for removing excessive milk.. and t ake littel efforts for breast feeding

sure. thanks purva

☺ welcome..
