Hi, just wanted to introduce myself and say hi! I followed the accelerated protocol and have been pumping for about a 22 days now!
I bought a Medela Pump in Style! I bought it used and saved a bundle.
So far, I have built up to about 2.5 ounces per pumping. And now I am going to try to increase the amount of pumpings per day!
I have been trying to do 5.
I have found that when I try to double pump both breasts at the same time, I don't have as much success as a single breast at a time. The strength of the pump seems to decrease with both at the same time. So it has been taking a little longer to get done!
Also my one breast is not producing as much as my other, so that has me a little concerned. One is under one ounce and the other is about 2 ounces
With my little on on the way in about six days (via surrogacy), I hope I am ready!
Anyway, that is my update.
Debbie
