Pumping

3 quick things that I have learnt about pumping!

1. Don't pump in the first week! (Especially when your milk first comes in!) people may tell you it eases the pain, but the more you pump, the more supply you end up with, so really it just makes the pain defer to a different time - Believe me, I found this out the hard way!

2. The law is on your side! If you want to continue breastfeeding when you go back to work, your work has to offer you a private lockable place to pump, somewhere to wash your hands and somewhere to store your milk.

3. You can donate milk! Now I didn't find this out until the other day but it makes sence and I think it is a fantastic idea. If someone cannot feed their baby for some reason (i.e. hospitalized) then they can still have breast milk by using a milk bank.
