Hi
I am wanting to start expressing my milk so that my partner can share feeds.
I have an electric breast pump. I'm confused, do I pump in between feeds? He feeds every 3 hours so would I pump in between that? Also, do I pump off both breasts? Also, how much do I need to pump off? How much does baby usually drink?
The midwife told me to express into ice trays and then defrost one ice cube, this doesn't seem very much?
