Can I express at 2.5wks?

I really want to be able to express some milk so that I can bottle feed when I'm out and so OH can help with some feeds.

She's only 2.5wks, is this too early?

I started pumping when my soon was 4 days old. He's 5 weeks now and my supply if great and I have 200oz frozen for when i return to work. It's not a problem.

Thanks for replying!!

When's the best time to do it? Directly after a feed or on the opposite boob she feeds on? Xx

I usually pump right after a feed.
