I’ve learned a lot about boosting breast milk supply through the highs and lows of nursing five babies. In this video I explain how pumping after breastfeeding just for five minutes or so can make things less stressful for you in the long run. By following this “pump after nursing” system, you stimulate your body to produce milk and store up a nice little stash of frozen milk, which can make providing your baby with breast milk a lot less stressful.
Have you tried to pump after nursing? Please share your experiences below – I would love to hear from you!

Interesting. I am not going back to work and plan to nurse my baby for 1 year + with little need for bottles. Would there be any reason for me to follow this method? I feel that in my case I would end up with a lot of frozen milk that would never get used except for occasional date night or something. Oddly enough I do feel compelled to pump and freeze milk but I don’t know what for.
