Hi.
I need to start pumping my milk as i am going to be away from baby soon. I have tried to pump but nothing is happening andi have tried for a few nights now for approx 5 min each time. No let down is happening either. I am not sure what i am doing wrong or if its the pump. I have a Avent Isis IQ electric pump and i have realized that i am not getting alot of suction. I am getting more suction with a manual pump (although no milk is coming out with that either). Baby is getting enough to eat and is satisfied and gaining weight so i def know my milk is fine.
Maybe someone here knows that pump and knows maybe it has a history of losing suction or if someone here has any tips or tricks.
thanks
