A member asked:
Is it preferable to pump milk once the baby had finished his feeding and resting? or should i keep milk for next feeding? in term of increasing milk

Pump Immediately: There are different opinions on thsi subject.I believe that pumping immediately after the feeding is best for increasing the supply and maintaining the milk for the next feeding.
