I had a friend that used to read magazines while pumping. So when I had to pump a year later I watched things on my phone. It didn't work, it was painful. One day I tried thinking of my baby. Second later, MILK! So I filmed him nursing and I'd put that film on and it was always immediate. Fffsssttt that little satisfying noise 😂

I’m so happy with how real you are about this. FEEDING a baby is hard. And you WILL feel like you’re inconveniencing someone at work when you’re taking the time to pump. Thank you for normalizing these feelings.
I’m 6 months pregnant and was already stressing about how I was going to do it. I LOVE how real you are about everything. Every other video was just basically “well my job let’s me.” But yours helped me breathe a little better, thank you!❤️

6. If you are pumping in an office with a window, pay attention to when the window washers are coming, 😂 . #awkward I pumped 18 months for each of my 3 kids. Your advice is spot on. I liked pumping while covered, even in my private office. I think I needed the breasts to be a little warmer in order to have a good milk letdown. Because I’m an analyst, I kept a record of the money I saved by pumping. That cash paid for a deep freezer, two good quality breast pumps, accessories and a lot of money left over. I’m so glad today’s moms have so many more resources supporting them. My kiddo was the first breastfed baby at her daycare, and I spent a ton of time educating her carers about breastmilk.

Wait a darn minute! I did not know I could throw all the pump parts in a bag in the fridge so I didn't have to wash it each time. That takes me like 10 or more mins each time to just clean the parts. Right there is something that is a huge tip that will help me. Thank you. Why haven't I ever heard that after 3 kids and on my 4th now?
Look into the Medela steaming bags!! They are reusable, you can store them in there and then after a quick wash, you can add a bit of water, throw them in the microwave and voila! Your stuff is sanitized! Honestly, lifesaver for first baby and definitely in my registry for this upcoming one!
Agreed!! I always thought you had to wash and sanitize every time! Even using the microwave steam bags it's still a pain. Going to try this with my next one for sure
Number 5 😭😭😭 That made me cry because that is what I needed to hear 2 years ago when I stopped breastfeeding at 3 weeks Postpartum because it was a disaster (nearly hospitalized from mastitis, then supply issues and pretty much every issue in the book!). It took me a long time to feel okay, I always wondered if I tried "hard enough". Big hugs and thanks for the video for when I try breastfeeding and pumping next time!
I didn't have many issues, I just never produced enough... and when I got back to work gave up because I couldn't be brave enough to pump at work since I had no idea where to begin with the logistics of it. To this day I also wonder if I tried "hard enough".... but on the good side, now with my second I am... and as little or as much breast milk I produce I am grateful and happy that to be able to do it!

So #5.. you keep loving women with this message. It wasn't until I was pregnant with my 3rd baby that their pediatrician said, it's ok if you do formula. She saw me struggle to get a supply from day 1. I am few that have little to no supply. U would collect my pumpings all day from a hospital grade pump and only be able to feed my baby 2 or 4 oz.. then with my second I knew what to do, I pumped and pumped and did SNS for 6 weeks until I went dry. 2 weeks longer then my first but the worst of both worlds. Pumping for scraps. Filling my sns tl, tapeing it my nipple just right.. latching and again , re positioning the tape and tube. Over and over. In the day, in the night, 2 am... you get it. My 3rd was coming and I craved something more natural. I already knew I couldn't sustain him. I did the bump and collect with my first, the sns with my second and I just wanted to have my breastfeeding story finally with my baby. My pediatrician said just go ahead with formula. I did have a 4 year old and a 2 year old, but I wanted to HEAL. I loved breast feeding. That's all I ever imagine or wanted for my babies. But my body let me down. So for my 3rd, a boy, i breast fed him. No tubes, no tape, no measuring. It was glorious. It was everything I ever wanted. I fed him from a bottle after for his " real meal " .. at the time I called my feedings his appetizer. And THat let me heal from how my body failed. I hope more mamas see this and know they aren't alone
This made me tear up. I also have low supply as a 40 year old mom with hypothyroidism and I’ll pump and pump and come up with 1 oz... I tried the tube with my lactation consultant and I knew I would not be able to do that- you have my respect! I’m so glad you healed and are able to accept and enjoy your breastfeeding journey with baby no. 3

I can't believe this I'm not even a mom. But I have to say thank you for making these videos! I've been a nanny for over 20 years and this is an actual issue with a whole lot of moms. And it is honestly heartbreaking watching from the outside and not being able to do much to help.
I'm so happy you talked about number 5. I had my first baby at 20 and I was so depressed and felt like I couldn't do anything right because from day one the hospital gave her formula and wouldn't give me a pump to use and I was too young and anxious to advocate for myself. I went to a lactation consultant after we were discharged from the hospital but she struggled to latch and we made it 3 solid months before my supply dwindled to where I had to supplement formula. I was so heartbroken and felt like I was a failure because I had planned to breast feed for at least a year. My husband talked me into going to the doctor for my anxiety and depression and worked with me on affirmations for myself and I'm in such a better state of mind now. He taught me that 3 months of breast milk was better than no breast milk and that I tried my hardest. Thank you for informing everyone and being everyone's advocate because not everyone has such a strong support system. 🥰 You're awesome!

I know this video has been out for a while but I keep coming back to watch it specifically because of the last tip. I am SO glad you included the tip to be kind and change plans if needed because so many people forget that not every woman is able to breastfeed their baby, whether by nursing, pumping, or both. There’s this knee-jerk reaction a lot of the times where people feel that women that don’t are lazy, incompetent, and doing a disservice to their child and I HATE that. I had grandiose plans of breastfeeding and I went into it completely rose-eyed and ignorant of that fact that it doesn’t always work. Flat nipples and a poor latch made nursing impossible and had me in TEARS. Switching to pumping saw me not even producing enough milk. Hence my baby has been getting formula since day one with only a few bottles of bm to at least give her some. But the down side to that is I have literally driven myself to exhaustion and pure guilt. Pumping constantly is a PAIN. Having to watch my baby play with my sisters instead of me because I have to pump. Getting up in the middle of the night because I have to pump. Waking up too early now that I’m back to work because I have to pump. All because there is this overwhelming judgement that if I stop, I’m harming my baby in some way. Forget the fact that I am exhausted and stressed and generally feeling discombobulated with all the OTHER things I have to do that pumping keeps me away from so many times throughout the day. My baby is 6 months, my supply is down to where it’s only enough for one bottle a day and I am just so done. The only thing that made me even keep going was more because of this “BREASTFEED ONLY OMG NO FORMULA NO” nonsense rather than a genuine want. I need to be there for my baby and being stressed because breastfeeding plans didn’t work is not the way to do it. So thank you for advocating for that. So many other videos overlook the fact that it doesn’t work out for some women and make it seem as though pumping is the only alternative when it isn’t. So just - thank you.

I work at a gas station and usually work alone for the first 5-6 hours of my shift so there is literally no time for me to go somewhere and pump because im the only person there to help customers. I bought a freemie pump in the hopes I can wear it and pump while I help my customers... Im still stressing about it as returning to work is what was the beginning of the end of my breastfeeding journey with my first. I really hope I can make it work this go.

I’m finding that pumping directly into bags works much better for me to cut down on time. I have an adapter for my spectra pump that holds the bag. Got it from amazon. These are good tips that I’ve already been doing especially the fridgerator tip for parts

I pump straight into bags too! Anyone looking, search “Spectra bag adapter” on Amazon. I think mine is Maymom. I hated pouring and accidentally spilling on the carpet at work.
I absolutely love this!! Currently 8 months pregnant. Trying to become knowledgeable of pumping milk at work. Thankfully I work at a family owned company and they are understanding when it comes to kids.

Omg I'm crying! My baby was 8 weeks premature... During nursing school! So far it's been ok but I'm an undersupplier. I've been so worried about how clinicals in the hospital will work. I've been buying things that will make it easier but we have almost made it to 1 year EXCLUSIVELY pumping and supplementing. I even bought the Willow but the learning curve is a whole nother beast. Thank you for your encouragement. ❤

I’m so happy I came across this video! As an L&D nurse, I’m typically only with mom and baby for an hour, maybe 2, unless it’s a mag delivery... and so many moms get upset if baby doesn’t just latch right on at 15 minutes of life... and I have to remind mom that this is all new. It’s new to mom, it’s new to baby, and everyone is learning! Thankfully we have some amazing nurses and lactation consultants on our post partum side that work with mom and baby (dad, too, if he wants to help out) and get everyone on a great schedule!! But... I’m glad to share this video with them, too, so they have good info for their future nursing/pumping plans!!

@@userm180 Firstly, while I respect your decision to believe in a God, I do not plan to do any such thing in my future. Secondly, this was NOT the comment I expected to see this reply on. 😅 Have a good one though.
Oh man, I wish I had all this awesome advice 5 months ago when I first started pumping! Through trial and error I’ve been doing things the same way - refrigerating the parts, using the bags, the hands free bra. The most difficult thing for me is sticking to my schedule. As an MS4, I often feel like I don’t have the authority to insist on leaving to pump. Sometimes other med students have to do more work while I’m gone. I feel that sense of responsibility and duty to the team, and I have to constantly remind myself that breastfeeding my baby is legally protected and what’s highly recommended!
Something I wish someone would have told me when I breastfed was that your milk can be totally different from child to child. With my daughter it looked like whole milk, with my son it looked more like skim. I had PPD with my son and wish I would have asked for help. Thank you for making these videos!

Thank you so much for the beautiful video! I do have to say though, the CDC does not recommend leaving pumping parts unwashed in the fridge. There are no evidence that the cool temperatures in the fridge will stop bacteria from growing.

Luckily, my bosses and coworkers have all been very understanding, and I work in retail. My store manager even lets me use his office. It has a comfortable chair and the door locks. I’ve been very blessed. I use a hand hump too. My electric one broke in the beginning, and I’ve been using a hand pump ever since. I feel like I get more milk out, faster. Works for me.
Great advice! I loved storing my pump parts in a wet bag (reusable bags), plus I was able to pump straight into the bottles my kids used at daycare and leave them there when I picked up - so one less thing for my husband to do when he did drop off :)

Wish I could like this 1000 times. Thank you for your videos, especially this one. There are so many amazing mamas who are trying so hard to feed their babies. As an exclusive pumper for 13 months, these pumping tips are absolute gold! Pics of baby, hands free bra, and advocating for yourself and baby are so important.

I love that now they have breastfeeding/nursing bras all in one. No need to change your bra. Also wireless pumps are great too. Those are probably new since this video.
I had the experience of being a resident and young doctor and trying to pump. There was no time for women to pump back then (1985) I ended up with a patient having a cardiac arrest once while I was trying to pump. My breast milk was stolen from the fridge in ob. There were a lot if hurdles. Pumps were incredibly expensive. I had to rent one. Things have changed a lot. I can't believe I got through all of that.
Yeah, I had the same experience whenever I worked as a bedside nurse in 2018. They never had a designated space so I had to use an unused unit (until they kicked me out) or the doctors sleep room to pump and I was lucky if I could have enough time to pump for 30 min while on my lunch break. I’m hoping that I’ll have a better time working as a telehealth nurse with baby 2 next summer and that I can pump discreetly at the desk.
I love your videos! You share so much love and positivity that I feel like I am talking to a good friend. I am 7 months pregnant and watching all of your videos and your advice is so helpful!

I loved this whole video, but I think I needed to hear 5 the most. I have a lot of anxieties as this is my first pregnancy and people constantly want to police what I do (who aren’t my doctor) so hearing someone being encouraging and non-judge mental outside my doctors practice calmed me down a lot.

I had to figure all of these out myself, but I used KellyMom as a great resource! Since I didn't always have a fridge to put pump parts in, KellyMom and other sites said you can use pump parts twice (within a 4 hour period) without washing, so that saved me 1-2 washing sessions a day when I was out on the road. I also had the pump wipes when water wasn't readily available (I was a field engineer for the military). One thing I did since NanoBee wasn't around? I took a few gift bags the size of the Lanisohl (?) bags, cut a slit about the size of a full bag of BM, and put those in the freezer. It dispensed similarly and I'm sure a lot cheaper. So many neat products out NOW, but not in 2012/2016 when I nursed my 2 girls.

I don't know why I watched this, as I haven't been pumping for well over a year. But this is a great video, and I wish I could have watched it back then. I don't know anyone here (Denmark) who pumped for more than a couple of weeks, so thank you for this video (especially the number 5!). A thing I found was, that if I added probiotics to my freshly pumped milk, it would not spoil as fast and my baby seemed happier with this :)

Thank you so mush for this video. I will be going back to work next month and I'm already stressing in how I will manage to pump @ work. I am exclusively breastfeeding & pumping once a day. I work in a hospital breastfeeding room is very far in a different floor. I get two 30 min break but my pumping sessions are 30 mins. I will be advocating for my self. Thank you
Lol she said nano baby😅 she just translated it instead of saying it the right way. She not wrong... But he not right and she still very well experienced so this is why I am here. I love the info she is giving 💜 thank you!!!
By any chance, could you do a video with tips on how to increase your overall supply? I am having so much trouble and have tried cookies, oils, etc. Love your channel!!

Thank you for these tips! I have 2 quick questions: 1. Do you leave milk drops on pump parts when you store in fridge? No rinsing in water? 2.

Thanks so much! I am going to go back to work in about a week. I dont have a traditional job so I can't utilize all these tips, but I think this was helpful 😊
I was bullied and fiercely harassed at work because I chose to use my rights to pump to breastfeed my baby. It was tough as hell and I would think that the stress was literally going to kill me. But I stuck to it. I kept going. Now looking back at it, I would do it all over again despite the stress. It was so worth it because thanks to my dedication I got to nurse my baby until he turned 2 years old. On the other hand, I definitely do wish society wasn't as evil and selfish as to believe a working mom shouldn't nurse her baby.
I worked in a juvenile jail and was actually a supervisor. Everyone I worked with was great because well had to have some rough form of legal knowledge. Now I’m in EMS and they all know I will fight you. Pulse we work in medical so we are good. I’m sorry you had such garbage people around you.
I love this! I am a resident physician due in November and I was in desperate need of some tips for pumping at work when I go back to a busy schedule! Thanks for posting :)

I have reusable silicone bags to put my pump parts in. I feel better about not throwing out a plastic bag everyday. I also have more than one pump kit setup, that way if I don't have time to wash, sterilize and dry when I get home, I can still take clean pump parts the next day. Also, the pumping/nursing bra from kindered bravely is the best. I love the tank version it's so fast to clip down and I don't feel like I'm ever exposed more than I need to be.
Great advice! Thank you for sharing your tips! I am going back to work in a week after being out for the birth of my first baby and I am super nervous about pumping at work and this video was very helpful!

I EPed for 13 months. The clothing hacks were great but with any kind of stretchy top or dress I could use my Freemie Cups which I used at work or out or driving & my normal collection set up hands free bra etc in the evening & weekends. Just another option. 🥰
#5!!! I was so excited to breastfeed but I could not make it work with my first or second child. My anxiety and depression just got so much worse. I felt like a failure and still do (I'm 2 months post partum) but at the same time I was not happy. I was not enjoying every moment possible with my new baby and my 3 year old. I did what was best for my children and myself and I stopped breastfeeding. I did try to pump but goodness gracious it was so hard! My three year old does not believe that mommy needs any personal space. I should have known since I cannot use the bathroom alone either. 😅

Wow, this video is just.. great! Well put together (especially with the summaries), easy to understand and of course great tips! I have 7 month old baby atm. and is soon returning to work (I am from Norway and we are lucky to have parental leave for at least 8 months). I have been breastfeeding full-time and would want to keep breastfeeding (i.e. pumping) when I return to work. I am anxious to see how this is going to work out, and these 5 tips (especially nr 5) made me feel that I definitely can handle this - whatever happens! I hope moms and to-be moms watch this video!

Lol my kids are 17, 16 and 12. My breastfeeding days are over...yet I'm sitting here watching this while eating dark chocolate agreeing with everything you are saying. I breastfed a total of 10 years between my 3 kids.
Such good content! I developed a similar approach when pumping at work (for about a year) based on my own experience and advice from other moms. A note about workplace rights: businesses under 50 employees might be exempt but also even if the business is required to follow the law they are not required to pay you for that time. I had to work while pumping (I remember you said you normally charted) and I found it very difficult to produce enough milk when I was more focused on work than pumping. Also some people can’t do their work while pumping 😕 But even with all that said, what you said is so important because so many women who are within their rights to pump are not aware. It’s such a shame how much we need to self-advocate. Many women don’t have the energy for this when they’re juggling work/infant life! Thankfully the awareness and education seems to be improving. Also you have the same (or very similar) mug that my supervisor had and it’s making me cringe 😬 I had a very difficult relationship with her when I was pumping 😞

I actually made a hands-free pumping bra by taking a cheap walmart sports bra without padding or wires and cut out holes for the pump shields to fit into. Turned out great!

I love this wish I had known about a few of these tips! I would pump in the car on the way to work and home plus at work. So much better. Wish I had done it sooner. I stored milk bags in 12 pack pop bottles. Worked great.

Its always possible. Totally agree to take it easy on yourself. I ended up with Mastisis with an Abscess Complication oh and MRSA in the hospital for a week 2 weeks after birth. I went on to breastfeed for 6 months then switched to formula.

I am so sad that I'm just now finding your channel! This video came out when my baby was 1 month old and it would have been so beneficial to me at the time. I just stopped pumping at work after fading back pump sessions over a few months. I would love to see a video of tips for when you are ready to stop pumping and how to fade it out if your routine!

I pumped while working part time at a restaurant with my 2 girls. I kept it simple. I made sure to "empty myself" before and after work, and usually had one quick pump on my break. I would go out to my car and use a little had held thing. If it was cold enough outside, I'd leave the whole thing in my car. I sometimes would grab a disposable cup from the restaurant to store milk. It worked for me. Fun times.

Idea PLEASE: I know this is a niche audience, but could you please do a video on your pregnancy & postpartum experiences in medical school, residency, and practicing? I’m a 25yr old (married and with BIG baby fever) who starts med school in July. I want to know the perspectives on pregnancy and mothering at various stages in the medical career (I’m actually doing a survey study now, for my masters project about this and I would love more insight!) Not that it matters much, but I adore pediatrics and OB and I’m gravitating towards those fields. Anyways, I would love your opinion (a video would be great, would you be open to me sending you the survey?) and really love watching your videos. Thanks! 😊 -Shelby

Great tips! Btw, there are nursing dresses! Nursing Queen is THE best nursing clothing I have found so far. I have a dress I love from there that works perfectly for nursing and pumping.
@Arianna Revinae I switched from Lansioh bags to Kiinde. I like pumping directly into the bag but also like the bag fits the nipple directly onto the bag. I love the design much more compared to similar ones.
Times have definitely changed since I nursed my youngest daughter in 1984. I actually had to go into the bathroom and sit in a stall and breastfeed her in there.But it was worth it. I didn't even need a breast pump. I hand pumped my breast milk I had enough milk to do this after each each feed. And put it in a breast milk storage bags and dated it and the stash in my freezer was great. We went to a wedding and I had enough milk for 4 bottles and she drank them. I nursed her before I left That was the only time she had a bottle. .
I always found that pumping both breasts simultaneously really messed with my head. I guess it was maybe overwhelming? I had to do one at a time, but I was able to successfully pump at work!
I have this too. Ive pumped 10 months for my eldest and currently 11 months into pumping for my second. Even though I hve a double pump I always pump one side at the time. Im also faster that way than doing both at the same time (milk flow is faster)

I found your channel this week, and I subscribed! I have a question. I just read a comment from a “doctor” recommending pregnant women to drink beverages with “low content” of alcohol to induce labor, and I looked it up and it is actually a thing that many people do. Some women say that they drink one cup of wine occasionally, others say they do one daily, and others drink beer and other drinks close to their due date. I find this a horrible practice, but I am no healthcare professional (yet), so I am not sure. Would you recommend to anyone that they drink at any stage of their pregnancy. I suspect your answer is no already, but since even “doctors” are recommending it, I am confused. Also that same person said that you could prevent stretch marks by rapidly gaining weight... I thought that rapid weight gain (or loss) would actually increase the risk of stretch marks. I would have never thought that a doctor would recommend anyone to gain weight rapidly, let alone do it to prevent stretch marks...
As i was reading your comment i knew the EXACT comment you were talking about, i read the same one and thought it was absolutely insane, mind you i'm no health care professional but even in the past when i changed weight significantly fast i got stretch marks, and that was no where near the weight gain most people would experience during pregnancy, it was just 10lbs in a 1-2 month time frame so as soon as they said to gain weight fast to prevent stretch marks i couldn't believe they were any sort of health care professional and the thought of drinking while pregnant scares me as is, and yet they were acting like it was good to do! I'd be terrified if i ever found out they are a real doctor!

Your setup is so optimal, I’m jealous lol I work in a very male dominated industry, we have no place for me to pump and I refuse to do it at my desk (too many nosy males around) and I don’t have a fridge that I feel comfortable using as I believe someone is attempting to grow various forms of fungus in it. Also, day care makes me bring the bottles premade, I can’t bring the bags of milk.
I put breastmilk in the fridge once. I caught someone taking it out and inspecting it to make room for other food, so that was the end of that. Apparently "PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH THE BREASTMILK" label wasn't clear enough. Used car salesmen aren't the smartest. But then again, what work place doesn't have one of those?

Love this! Very informative, luckily I didn't have to worry about pump time at work but even the crappy fast food restaurant I work at asked me before I came back if I would need breaks for pumping and how long they would need to be. But I had stopped pumping before returning to work. Love your content!

She said not to rinse the pump parts just straight in the bag, although this video is 4 years old and the recommendation might have changed to fully wash and dry parts (or have multiple parts).
It's been has been very long time since my daughter's children were babies (They ate grown & out of college now.) , but she had a friend who did alterations modify a few holiday dress to drop from the neckline to the waste on either or both sides to facilitate breast feeding.

Wow how times have changed! I wish there were electric pumps and pumping bras when my children were little! Production was never a problem for me. Although wet shirts at work were with my first. When my second baby was in the NICU I did get to use the electric pump at the hospital (definitely NOT something that could fit into a bag, at least not one I could carry!). Then I had to put up with the rude remarks about how many little bottles I carried out of the pump room. I had my third after we were all permanently laid-off because of the recession. I nursed him longer than I intended because it's hard to give a baby a bottle he doesn't want while simultaneously being soaked in milk he does want. Other than that, I never found nursing to be hard. Except when the doctors decided my 28.5 weeker needed more calories and put her on formula through her feeding tube.

First time mom here ... due in June. How do you get a pump schedule going while also breastfeeding? Do you pump when the baby would normally eat? I’ll be on leave for 6-8 weeks and want to breastfeed and pump during that time so that the supply will be built for when I go back to work. How quickly does your milk replenish after a feed/pump? It all seems so overwhelming and I’m sure it’s not as hard as my mind is making it. Lol
My mantra for myself and my patients’ mothers: pump today what you’ll use tomorrow! Pumping as frequently as baby is feeding should give you enough milk for the next day, and if not then you adjust. You only need 1 days worth of milk (usually 1-1.25oz/hr you’re away) when you head back, so don’t stress about having a freezer full of milk :) My advice is to focus on establishing your supply via direct breastfeeding during your leave - it’s not as straightforward as we’d think sometimes! Congratulations on the little one!
Thanks for all the tips! When I go back, I have to take an entire hour unpaid each time I want to pump. Plus I have to go out into my car... hopefully these tips make it a little easier!
@@MamaDoctorJones I've been trying to research the hour unpaid part but can't find anything clear for my state. I'm a pediatric PT and all of our appts start on the hour so they justify it saying it's an unproductive hour. We are a large corporation and I can't imagine I've been the first one to be annoyed by this policy though :/ The car part doesn't bother me as much since none of our doors besides a single stall bathroom have locks on anyway just in case our kiddo elope. Considering the Willow pump thanks to your videos though which should make it a little easier!

My baby is in the nicu, watching videos of her or having her blanket has helped my let down. I didn’t have the discipline to pump or breastfeed my first baby and let myself dry up because formula was easy. But with my baby in the nicu it makes me feel more connected knowing it’s my milk feeding her. I had a seizure due to eclampsia and placental abruption on Christmas. My babies due date was Valentine’s Day. Tough situation still haven’t wrapped my head around what’s happened.

Sometimes trouble shooting pumps is super important. I produced more for my manual pump than for my Medela electric. Just figure out what works for you!!
Have you tried the kindii bags? You can pump directly into the bags. Or the ollie bra? Those made pumping a lot easier for me. Then the elvie pump came out and that was a game changer for me

OMG I'm sooo glad to see on your desk one of the cups from the most famous Polish pottery in Bolesławiec, currently totally out of their offer (so I had some trouble to make myself sure as to this particular pattern and not make myself crazy) and you have to know that all product designs from Bolesławiec are very characteristic and I will know them at a glance as our cultural resource. :D I like watching your channel, even though I don't plan to have children myself (and I accepted that my advanced endometriosis probably will prevent it anyway). Nevertheless, I think the content published on the channel is extremely interesting and absorbing in terms of knowledge. I send greetings, hugs and kisses to you and your whole family - from Poland!

Super random question since I know nothing about being pregnant or breast feeding but i figured you might have an answer to. If you have a lump in your breast do you think it will go away when you breast feed? I have one that I’ve had for a couple years but I’ve only had it checked out once when I was a teenager and they said it was totally normal. I’m under the impression that maybe it’s a swollen lymph node or something but I don’t remember what it’s actually called so I know it’s definitely time to go back to the doctor and make sure its still okay... I just wondered if whenever I do get pregnant (hopefully in a couple years after I get married this year) if maybe the lump would go away on it’s own? Sorry for the super awkward question!

I have a Q about stashing your pump parts as I've seen this recommendation so frequently... since breastmilk has to be cooled before you can combine from different sessions to (inhibit bacteria growth from cooled milk being re-warmed), wouldn't residual milk on the pump parts fall into the same category? Or is the volume so negligible it's not a big deal if it's rewarmed during the next pumping session?

Hi Dr Mama Jones! Thank you for this! I’m expecting my second baby this year. I’ve pumped for my first but mostly in a work from home set up. I would be heading back to the office for my second. And I read that it may not be safe to store the parts in the fridge in between pumps. I’m a little confused as to when this is safe and when this is not. Would you be able to share some advice? Thank you!

Any great scrub brands good for pumping? (CNA/Cardiac monitor tech here!) I normally wear Grey's Anatomy and a jacket...Not ideal. For my first babe I did the scrubs and tank top method.
A lot of pregnant moms I work with get snap or button-up scrub tops when first pregnant as they’re a little looser. Them they wear it after the baby because it’s easier for pumping.

I had a friend that used to read magazines while pumping. So when I had to pump a year later I watched things on my phone. It didn't work, it was painful. One day I tried thinking of my baby. Second later, MILK! So I filmed him nursing and I'd put that film on and it was always immediate. Fffsssttt that little satisfying noise 😂

I've done that too! I made sure that the angle was taping exactly how I would look at her while nursing.
I’m so happy with how real you are about this. FEEDING a baby is hard. And you WILL feel like you’re inconveniencing someone at work when you’re taking the time to pump. Thank you for normalizing these feelings.
I’m 6 months pregnant and was already stressing about how I was going to do it. I LOVE how real you are about everything. Every other video was just basically “well my job let’s me.” But yours helped me breathe a little better, thank you!❤️

6. If you are pumping in an office with a window, pay attention to when the window washers are coming, 😂 . #awkward
I pumped 18 months for each of my 3 kids. Your advice is spot on.
I liked pumping while covered, even in my private office. I think I needed the breasts to be a little warmer in order to have a good milk letdown.
Because I’m an analyst, I kept a record of the money I saved by pumping. That cash paid for a deep freezer, two good quality breast pumps, accessories and a lot of money left over.
I’m so glad today’s moms have so many more resources supporting them. My kiddo was the first breastfed baby at her daycare, and I spent a ton of time educating her carers about breastmilk.

Wait a darn minute! I did not know I could throw all the pump parts in a bag in the fridge so I didn't have to wash it each time. That takes me like 10 or more mins each time to just clean the parts. Right there is something that is a huge tip that will help me. Thank you. Why haven't I ever heard that after 3 kids and on my 4th now?
Momma2thewilds you’re technically supposed to fully clean and dry between uses but it really isn’t a big deal to use this “hack”!
I used to do this all the time. Saves so much time.
Look into the Medela steaming bags!! They are reusable, you can store them in there and then after a quick wash, you can add a bit of water, throw them in the microwave and voila! Your stuff is sanitized! Honestly, lifesaver for first baby and definitely in my registry for this upcoming one!
My most hated thing about pumping was washing the dishes!!!!
Agreed!! I always thought you had to wash and sanitize every time! Even using the microwave steam bags it's still a pain. Going to try this with my next one for sure
Number 5 😭😭😭 That made me cry because that is what I needed to hear 2 years ago when I stopped breastfeeding at 3 weeks Postpartum because it was a disaster (nearly hospitalized from mastitis, then supply issues and pretty much every issue in the book!). It took me a long time to feel okay, I always wondered if I tried "hard enough". Big hugs and thanks for the video for when I try breastfeeding and pumping next time!
I had a similar issue & found EPing, exclusively pumping was wonderful for me. Just an idea.
Chloe Crawford any try is trying hard enough. Breastfeeding is not for everyone and that’s okay 💜💜
I didn't have many issues, I just never produced enough... and when I got back to work gave up because I couldn't be brave enough to pump at work since I had no idea where to begin with the logistics of it. To this day I also wonder if I tried "hard enough".... but on the good side, now with my second I am... and as little or as much breast milk I produce I am grateful and happy that to be able to do it!

So #5.. you keep loving women with this message. It wasn't until I was pregnant with my 3rd baby that their pediatrician said, it's ok if you do formula. She saw me struggle to get a supply from day 1. I am few that have little to no supply. U would collect my pumpings all day from a hospital grade pump and only be able to feed my baby 2 or 4 oz.. then with my second I knew what to do, I pumped and pumped and did SNS for 6 weeks until I went dry. 2 weeks longer then my first but the worst of both worlds. Pumping for scraps. Filling my sns tl, tapeing it my nipple just right.. latching and again , re positioning the tape and tube. Over and over. In the day, in the night, 2 am... you get it. My 3rd was coming and I craved something more natural. I already knew I couldn't sustain him. I did the bump and collect with my first, the sns with my second and I just wanted to have my breastfeeding story finally with my baby. My pediatrician said just go ahead with formula. I did have a 4 year old and a 2 year old, but I wanted to HEAL. I loved breast feeding. That's all I ever imagine or wanted for my babies. But my body let me down. So for my 3rd, a boy, i breast fed him. No tubes, no tape, no measuring. It was glorious. It was everything I ever wanted. I fed him from a bottle after for his " real meal " .. at the time I called my feedings his appetizer. And THat let me heal from how my body failed. I hope more mamas see this and know they aren't alone
What a beautiful story! Thank you for sharing it!
This made me tear up. I also have low supply as a 40 year old mom with hypothyroidism and I’ll pump and pump and come up with 1 oz...
I tried the tube with my lactation consultant and I knew I would not be able to do that- you have my respect!
I’m so glad you healed and are able to accept and enjoy your breastfeeding journey with baby no. 3

I can't believe this I'm not even a mom. But I have to say thank you for making these videos! I've been a nanny for over 20 years and this is an actual issue with a whole lot of moms. And it is honestly heartbreaking watching from the outside and not being able to do much to help.
I'm so happy you talked about number 5. I had my first baby at 20 and I was so depressed and felt like I couldn't do anything right because from day one the hospital gave her formula and wouldn't give me a pump to use and I was too young and anxious to advocate for myself. I went to a lactation consultant after we were discharged from the hospital but she struggled to latch and we made it 3 solid months before my supply dwindled to where I had to supplement formula. I was so heartbroken and felt like I was a failure because I had planned to breast feed for at least a year. My husband talked me into going to the doctor for my anxiety and depression and worked with me on affirmations for myself and I'm in such a better state of mind now. He taught me that 3 months of breast milk was better than no breast milk and that I tried my hardest. Thank you for informing everyone and being everyone's advocate because not everyone has such a strong support system. 🥰 You're awesome!

I know this video has been out for a while but I keep coming back to watch it specifically because of the last tip. I am SO glad you included the tip to be kind and change plans if needed because so many people forget that not every woman is able to breastfeed their baby, whether by nursing, pumping, or both. There’s this knee-jerk reaction a lot of the times where people feel that women that don’t are lazy, incompetent, and doing a disservice to their child and I HATE that.
I had grandiose plans of breastfeeding and I went into it completely rose-eyed and ignorant of that fact that it doesn’t always work. Flat nipples and a poor latch made nursing impossible and had me in TEARS. Switching to pumping saw me not even producing enough milk. Hence my baby has been getting formula since day one with only a few bottles of bm to at least give her some. But the down side to that is I have literally driven myself to exhaustion and pure guilt. Pumping constantly is a PAIN. Having to watch my baby play with my sisters instead of me because I have to pump. Getting up in the middle of the night because I have to pump. Waking up too early now that I’m back to work because I have to pump. All because there is this overwhelming judgement that if I stop, I’m harming my baby in some way. Forget the fact that I am exhausted and stressed and generally feeling discombobulated with all the OTHER things I have to do that pumping keeps me away from so many times throughout the day.
My baby is 6 months, my supply is down to where it’s only enough for one bottle a day and I am just so done. The only thing that made me even keep going was more because of this “BREASTFEED ONLY OMG NO FORMULA NO” nonsense rather than a genuine want. I need to be there for my baby and being stressed because breastfeeding plans didn’t work is not the way to do it.
So thank you for advocating for that. So many other videos overlook the fact that it doesn’t work out for some women and make it seem as though pumping is the only alternative when it isn’t. So just - thank you.

I work at a gas station and usually work alone for the first 5-6 hours of my shift so there is literally no time for me to go somewhere and pump because im the only person there to help customers. I bought a freemie pump in the hopes I can wear it and pump while I help my customers... Im still stressing about it as returning to work is what was the beginning of the end of my breastfeeding journey with my first. I really hope I can make it work this go.

@Sam omg! I didn’t know this, wooow I’m glad to know there is something that protects us!
I’m finding that pumping directly into bags works much better for me to cut down on time. I have an adapter for my spectra pump that holds the bag. Got it from amazon. These are good tips that I’ve already been doing especially the fridgerator tip for parts
Stephanie Legris what bags do you use and what’s the adapter called?? I also have the spectra pump.

I pump straight into bags too! Anyone looking, search “Spectra bag adapter” on Amazon. I think mine is Maymom. I hated pouring and accidentally spilling on the carpet at work.
I absolutely love this!! Currently 8 months pregnant. Trying to become knowledgeable of pumping milk at work. Thankfully I work at a family owned company and they are understanding when it comes to kids.

Omg I'm crying! My baby was 8 weeks premature... During nursing school! So far it's been ok but I'm an undersupplier. I've been so worried about how clinicals in the hospital will work. I've been buying things that will make it easier but we have almost made it to 1 year EXCLUSIVELY pumping and supplementing. I even bought the Willow but the learning curve is a whole nother beast.
Thank you for your encouragement. ❤

This video was so incredibly helpful.. and comforting!
I’m so happy I came across this video! As an L&D nurse, I’m typically only with mom and baby for an hour, maybe 2, unless it’s a mag delivery... and so many moms get upset if baby doesn’t just latch right on at 15 minutes of life... and I have to remind mom that this is all new. It’s new to mom, it’s new to baby, and everyone is learning! Thankfully we have some amazing nurses and lactation consultants on our post partum side that work with mom and baby (dad, too, if he wants to help out) and get everyone on a great schedule!! But... I’m glad to share this video with them, too, so they have good info for their future nursing/pumping plans!!

@@userm180 Firstly, while I respect your decision to believe in a God, I do not plan to do any such thing in my future. Secondly, this was NOT the comment I expected to see this reply on. 😅 Have a good one though.
Oh man, I wish I had all this awesome advice 5 months ago when I first started pumping! Through trial and error I’ve been doing things the same way - refrigerating the parts, using the bags, the hands free bra.
The most difficult thing for me is sticking to my schedule. As an MS4, I often feel like I don’t have the authority to insist on leaving to pump. Sometimes other med students have to do more work while I’m gone. I feel that sense of responsibility and duty to the team, and I have to constantly remind myself that breastfeeding my baby is legally protected and what’s highly recommended!
Something I wish someone would have told me when I breastfed was that your milk can be totally different from child to child. With my daughter it looked like whole milk, with my son it looked more like skim. I had PPD with my son and wish I would have asked for help. Thank you for making these videos!

Thank you so much for the beautiful video! I do have to say though, the CDC does not recommend leaving pumping parts unwashed in the fridge. There are no evidence that the cool temperatures in the fridge will stop bacteria from growing.

Luckily, my bosses and coworkers have all been very understanding, and I work in retail. My store manager even lets me use his office. It has a comfortable chair and the door locks. I’ve been very blessed. I use a hand hump too. My electric one broke in the beginning, and I’ve been using a hand pump ever since. I feel like I get more milk out, faster. Works for me.
Great advice! I loved storing my pump parts in a wet bag (reusable bags), plus I was able to pump straight into the bottles my kids used at daycare and leave them there when I picked up - so one less thing for my husband to do when he did drop off :)

I love that now they have breastfeeding/nursing bras all in one. No need to change your bra. Also wireless pumps are great too. Those are probably new since this video.
I had the experience of being a resident and young doctor and trying to pump. There was no time for women to pump back then (1985) I ended up with a patient having a cardiac arrest once while I was trying to pump. My breast milk was stolen from the fridge in ob. There were a lot if hurdles. Pumps were incredibly expensive. I had to rent one. Things have changed a lot. I can't believe I got through all of that.
Yeah, I had the same experience whenever I worked as a bedside nurse in 2018. They never had a designated space so I had to use an unused unit (until they kicked me out) or the doctors sleep room to pump and I was lucky if I could have enough time to pump for 30 min while on my lunch break. I’m hoping that I’ll have a better time working as a telehealth nurse with baby 2 next summer and that I can pump discreetly at the desk.
I love your videos! You share so much love and positivity that I feel like I am talking to a good friend. I am 7 months pregnant and watching all of your videos and your advice is so helpful!

I loved this whole video, but I think I needed to hear 5 the most. I have a lot of anxieties as this is my first pregnancy and people constantly want to police what I do (who aren’t my doctor) so hearing someone being encouraging and non-judge mental outside my doctors practice calmed me down a lot. Thank you

I had to figure all of these out myself, but I used KellyMom as a great resource! Since I didn't always have a fridge to put pump parts in, KellyMom and other sites said you can use pump parts twice (within a 4 hour period) without washing, so that saved me 1-2 washing sessions a day when I was out on the road. I also had the pump wipes when water wasn't readily available (I was a field engineer for the military).
One thing I did since NanoBee wasn't around? I took a few gift bags the size of the Lanisohl (?) bags, cut a slit about the size of a full bag of BM, and put those in the freezer. It dispensed similarly and I'm sure a lot cheaper. So many neat products out NOW, but not in 2012/2016 when I nursed my 2 girls.

I don't know why I watched this, as I haven't been pumping for well over a year. But this is a great video, and I wish I could have watched it back then. I don't know anyone here (Denmark) who pumped for more than a couple of weeks, so thank you for this video (especially the number 5!).
A thing I found was, that if I added probiotics to my freshly pumped milk, it would not spoil as fast and my baby seemed happier with this :)

Thank you so mush for this video. I will be going back to work next month and I'm already stressing in how I will manage to pump @ work. I am exclusively breastfeeding & pumping once a day. I work in a hospital breastfeeding room is very far in a different floor. I get two 30 min break but my pumping sessions are 30 mins. I will be advocating for my self. Thank you
Lol she said nano baby😅 she just translated it instead of saying it the right way. She not wrong... But he not right and she still very well experienced so this is why I am here. I love the info she is giving 💜 thank you!!!
By any chance, could you do a video with tips on how to increase your overall supply? I am having so much trouble and have tried cookies, oils, etc.

Thank you for these tips! I have 2 quick questions:
1. Do you leave milk drops on pump parts when you store in fridge? No rinsing in water?
2. As I’m returning to work
in the midst of covid as an NP, I’m planning on taking all recommended precautions for hygiene etc, but any other tips for pumping at work for healthcare providers at this time?

Thanks so much! I am going to go back to work in about a week. I dont have a traditional job so I can't utilize all these tips, but I think this was helpful 😊
I was bullied and fiercely harassed at work because I chose to use my rights to pump to breastfeed my baby. It was tough as hell and I would think that the stress was literally going to kill me. But I stuck to it. I kept going. Now looking back at it, I would do it all over again despite the stress. It was so worth it because thanks to my dedication I got to nurse my baby until he turned 2 years old. On the other hand, I definitely do wish society wasn't as evil and selfish as to believe a working mom shouldn't nurse her baby.

I have reusable silicone bags to put my pump parts in. I feel better about not throwing out a plastic bag everyday. I also have more than one pump kit setup, that way if I don't have time to wash, sterilize and dry when I get home, I can still take clean pump parts the next day. Also, the pumping/nursing bra from kindered bravely is the best. I love the tank version it's so fast to clip down and I don't feel like I'm ever exposed more than I need to be.
Great advice! Thank you for sharing your tips!

Hey! Did it work then for you? Were you able to still breastfeed your baby ? If so, any tips? How many times did you pump at work ?
I EPed for 13 months. The clothing hacks were great but with any kind of stretchy top or dress I could use my Freemie Cups which I used at work or out or driving & my normal collection set up hands free bra etc in the evening & weekends. Just another option. 🥰

I was so excited to breastfeed but I could not make it work with my first or second child. My anxiety and depression just got so much worse. I felt like a failure and still do (I'm 2 months post partum) but at the same time I was not happy. I was not enjoying every moment possible with my new baby and my 3 year old. I did what was best for my children and myself and I stopped breastfeeding. I did try to pump but goodness gracious it was so hard! My three year old does not believe that mommy needs any personal space. I should have known since I cannot use the bathroom alone either. 😅

Wow, this video is just.. great! Well put together (especially with the summaries), easy to understand and of course great tips! I have 7 month old baby atm. and is soon returning to work (I am from Norway and we are lucky to have parental leave for at least 8 months). I have been breastfeeding full-time and would want to keep breastfeeding (i.e. pumping) when I return to work. I am anxious to see how this is going to work out, and these 5 tips (especially nr 5) made me feel that I definitely can handle this - whatever happens! I hope moms and to-be moms watch this video!

Lol my kids are 17, 16 and 12. My breastfeeding days are over...yet I'm sitting here watching this while eating dark chocolate agreeing with everything you are saying. I breastfed a total of 10 years between my 3 kids.
Such good content! I developed a similar approach when pumping at work (for about a year) based on my own experience and advice from other moms. A note about workplace rights: businesses under 50 employees might be exempt but also even if the business is required to follow the law they are not required to pay you for that time. I had to work while pumping (I remember you said you normally charted) and I found it very difficult to produce enough milk when I was more focused on work than pumping. Also some people can’t do their work while pumping 😕 But even with all that said, what you said is so important because so many women who are within their rights to pump are not aware. It’s such a shame how much we need to self-advocate. Many women don’t have the energy for this when they’re juggling work/infant life! Thankfully the awareness and education seems to be improving. Also you have the same (or very similar) mug that my supervisor had and it’s making me cringe 😬 I had a very difficult relationship with her when I was pumping 😞

I love this wish I had known about a few of these tips! I would pump in the car on the way to work and home plus at work. So much better. Wish I had done it sooner. I stored milk bags in 12 pack pop bottles. Worked great.
I needed this. I just returned to work. Pumping is a whole new ballgame.

Its always possible. Totally agree to take it easy on yourself. I ended up with Mastisis with an Abscess Complication oh and MRSA in the hospital for a week 2 weeks after birth. I went on to breastfeed for 6 months then switched to formula.

I am so sad that I'm just now finding your channel! This video came out when my baby was 1 month old and it would have been so beneficial to me at the time.

I pumped while working part time at a restaurant with my 2 girls. I kept it simple. I made sure to "empty myself" before and after work, and usually had one quick pump on my break. I would go out to my car and use a little had held thing. If it was cold enough outside, I'd leave the whole thing in my car. I sometimes would grab a disposable cup from the restaurant to store milk. It worked for me. Fun times.

Idea PLEASE: I know this is a niche audience, but could you please do a video on your pregnancy & postpartum experiences in medical school, residency, and practicing? I’m a 25yr old (married and with BIG baby fever) who starts med school in July. I want to know the perspectives on pregnancy and mothering at various stages in the medical career (I’m actually doing a survey study now, for my masters project about this and I would love more insight!) Not that it matters much, but I adore pediatrics and OB and I’m gravitating towards those fields. Anyways, I would love your opinion (a video would be great, would you be open to me sending you the survey?) and really love watching your videos. Thanks! 😊 -Shelby

Thus js one if the most helpful tactical videos i've found
Great tips! Btw, there are nursing dresses! Nursing Queen is THE best nursing clothing I have found so far. I have a dress I love from there that works perfectly for nursing and pumping.
Kiinde bags are actually soooooooo much better. You just have to buy the adapter and you can pump directly into the bags. It's AH MAY ZING
Ciara Bosler I was thinking this too 😊
just ordered mine...I go back to work next week
I agree with this. I love them. We use a adapter to use a different nipple but all is good.
@Arianna Revinae I switched from Lansioh bags to Kiinde. I like pumping directly into the bag but also like the bag fits the nipple directly onto the bag. I love the design much more compared to similar ones.
Times have definitely changed since I nursed my youngest daughter in 1984. I actually had to go into the bathroom and sit in a stall and breastfeed her in there.But it was worth it. I didn't even need a breast pump. I hand pumped my breast milk I had enough milk to do this after each each feed. And put it in a breast milk storage bags and dated it and the stash in my freezer was great. We went to a wedding and I had enough milk for 4 bottles and she drank them. I nursed her before I left That was the only time she had a bottle. .
I always found that pumping both breasts simultaneously really messed with my head. I guess it was maybe overwhelming? I had to do one at a time, but I was able to successfully pump at work!
I have this too. Ive pumped 10 months for my eldest and currently 11 months into pumping for my second. Even though I hve a double pump I always pump one side at the time. Im also faster that way than doing both at the same time (milk flow is faster)

Now you know how to be more supportive of breastfeeding moms!
I found your channel this week, and I subscribed! I have a question. I just read a comment from a “doctor” recommending pregnant women to drink beverages with “low content” of alcohol to induce labor, and I looked it up and it is actually a thing that many people do. Some women say that they drink one cup of wine occasionally, others say they do one daily, and others drink beer and other drinks close to their due date. I find this a horrible practice, but I am no healthcare professional (yet), so I am not sure. Would you recommend to anyone that they drink at any stage of their pregnancy. I suspect your answer is no already, but since even “doctors” are recommending it, I am confused. Also that same person said that you could prevent stretch marks by rapidly gaining weight... I thought that rapid weight gain (or loss) would actually increase the risk of stretch marks. I would have never thought that a doctor would recommend anyone to gain weight rapidly, let alone do it to prevent stretch marks...
As i was reading your comment i knew the EXACT comment you were talking about, i read the same one and thought it was absolutely insane, mind you i'm no health care professional but even in the past when i changed weight significantly fast i got stretch marks, and that was no where near the weight gain most people would experience during pregnancy, it was just 10lbs in a 1-2 month time frame so as soon as they said to gain weight fast to prevent stretch marks i couldn't believe they were any sort of health care professional and the thought of drinking while pregnant scares me as is, and yet they were acting like it was good to do! I'd be terrified if i ever found out they are a real doctor!

Your setup is so optimal, I’m jealous lol I work in a very male dominated industry, we have no place for me to pump and I refuse to do it at my desk (too many nosy males around) and I don’t have a fridge that I feel comfortable using as I believe someone is attempting to grow various forms of fungus in it. Also, day care makes me bring the bottles premade, I can’t bring the bags of milk.
I put breastmilk in the fridge once. I caught someone taking it out and inspecting it to make room for other food, so that was the end of that. Apparently "PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH THE BREASTMILK" label wasn't clear enough. Used car salesmen aren't the smartest. But then again, what work place doesn't have one of those?

She said not to rinse the pump parts just straight in the bag, although this video is 4 years old and the recommendation might have changed to fully wash and dry parts (or have multiple parts).
It's been has been very long time since my daughter's children were babies (They ate grown & out of college now.) , but she had a friend who did alterations modify a few holiday dress to drop from the neckline to the waste on either or both sides to facilitate breast feeding.

Wow how times have changed! I wish there were electric pumps and pumping bras when my children were little! Production was never a problem for me. Although wet shirts at work were with my first. When my second baby was in the NICU I did get to use the electric pump at the hospital (definitely NOT something that could fit into a bag, at least not one I could carry!). Then I had to put up with the rude remarks about how many little bottles I carried out of the pump room. I had my third after we were all permanently laid-off because of the recession. I nursed him longer than I intended because it's hard to give a baby a bottle he doesn't want while simultaneously being soaked in milk he does want. Other than that, I never found nursing to be hard. Except when the doctors decided my 28.5 weeker needed more calories and put her on formula through her feeding tube.

First time mom here ... due in June. How do you get a pump schedule going while also breastfeeding? Do you pump when the baby would normally eat? I’ll be on leave for 6-8 weeks and want to breastfeed and pump during that time so that the supply will be built for when I go back to work. How quickly does your milk replenish after a feed/pump? It all seems so overwhelming and I’m sure it’s not as hard as my mind is making it. Lol
You'll usually feed or pump every 2-3 hours. I would definitely try to pump on the same schedule as your baby would be eating.
Angeliz Rodriguez thank you! 😊
Mama Doctor Jones thank you!
My mantra for myself and my patients’ mothers: pump today what you’ll use tomorrow! Pumping as frequently as baby is feeding should give you enough milk for the next day, and if not then you adjust. You only need 1 days worth of milk (usually 1-1.25oz/hr you’re away) when you head back, so don’t stress about having a freezer full of milk :) My advice is to focus on establishing your supply via direct breastfeeding during your leave - it’s not as straightforward as we’d think sometimes! Congratulations on the little one!
Jasmin Darling aw thanks, Jasmin! Great advice. 😊
Thanks for all the tips! When I go back, I have to take an entire hour unpaid each time I want to pump. Plus I have to go out into my car... hopefully these tips make it a little easier!
@@MamaDoctorJones I've been trying to research the hour unpaid part but can't find anything clear for my state. I'm a pediatric PT and all of our appts start on the hour so they justify it saying it's an unproductive hour. We are a large corporation and I can't imagine I've been the first one to be annoyed by this policy though :/ The car part doesn't bother me as much since none of our doors besides a single stall bathroom have locks on anyway just in case our kiddo elope. Considering the Willow pump thanks to your videos though which should make it a little easier!

My baby is in the nicu, watching videos of her or having her blanket has helped my let down. I didn’t have the discipline to pump or breastfeed my first baby and let myself dry up because formula was easy. But with my baby in the nicu it makes me feel more connected knowing it’s my milk feeding her. I had a seizure due to eclampsia and placental abruption on Christmas. My babies due date was Valentine’s Day. Tough situation still haven’t wrapped my head around what’s happened.

I will fight you over my pumping rights. I work 24hr EMS shift and this is my second kid, first kid while working EMS. I have a car adapter and will not hesitate to pump while driving back from two hour transfer one way 😂😂

Sometimes trouble shooting pumps is super important. I produced more for my manual pump than for my Medela electric. Just figure out what works for you!!
Have you tried the kindii bags? You can pump directly into the bags. Or the ollie bra? Those made pumping a lot easier for me. Then the elvie pump came out and that was a game changer for me

I’m a CNA, in nursing school, and I have no idea how I’m going to stop and pump at work But I really want to breastfeed for as long as possible

I wish I would have had some of those tips 2 years ago. I only pumed ( every single feeding) for 4 months because baby was not able to breastfeed and it was sooo exausting - sepecially all the cleaning, the time it took and the planning.

It is truly completely off topic, however...
OMG I'm sooo glad to see on your desk one of the cups from the most famous Polish pottery in Bolesławiec, currently totally out of their offer (so I had some trouble to make myself sure as to this particular pattern and not make myself crazy) and you have to know that all product designs from Bolesławiec are very characteristic and I will know them at a glance as our cultural resource. :D
I like watching your channel, even though I don't plan to have children myself (and I accepted that my advanced endometriosis probably will prevent it anyway). Nevertheless, I think the content published on the channel is extremely interesting and absorbing in terms of knowledge.
I send greetings, hugs and kisses to you and your whole family - from Poland!

@@userm180 I totally don't get you and your comment is inappropriate, because my one was directed to MDJ, not you.
Super random question since I know nothing about being pregnant or breast feeding but i figured you might have an answer to. If you have a lump in your breast do you think it will go away when you breast feed? I have one that I’ve had for a couple years but I’ve only had it checked out once when I was a teenager and they said it was totally normal. I’m under the impression that maybe it’s a swollen lymph node or something but I don’t remember what it’s actually called so I know it’s definitely time to go back to the doctor and make sure its still okay... I just wondered if whenever I do get pregnant (hopefully in a couple years after I get married this year) if maybe the lump would go away on it’s own?
Sorry for the super awkward question!
I would have it checked again for sure!
I'd get a second opinion just in case
I loved the organization of this video! Thanks for all the tips!

Would u recommend cleaning the breast first with some sort of wipe?

I have a Q about stashing your pump parts as I've seen this recommendation so frequently... since breastmilk has to be cooled before you can combine from different sessions to (inhibit bacteria growth from cooled milk being re-warmed), wouldn't residual milk on the pump parts fall into the same category? Or is the volume so negligible it's not a big deal if it's rewarmed during the next pumping session?

i would also love to know the answer to this question
Helpful! Thank you!
Hi Dr Mama Jones! Thank you for this! I’m expecting my second baby this year. I’ve pumped for my first but mostly in a work from home set up. I would be heading back to the office for my second. And I read that it may not be safe to store the parts in the fridge in between pumps. I’m a little confused as to when this is safe and when this is not. Would you be able to share some advice?
Thank you!
you are so funny. I love all your random comments. "Isn't that what all the cool youtubers say?"

Any great scrub brands good for pumping? (CNA/Cardiac monitor tech here!) I normally wear Grey's Anatomy and a jacket...Not ideal. For my first babe I did the scrubs and tank top method.
^^^please!! 4 courses away from applying to nursing school, no kids for at least 3 years lol but I’m forward thinking😂😂
A lot of pregnant moms I work with get snap or button-up scrub tops when first pregnant as they’re a little looser. Them they wear it after the baby because it’s easier for pumping.

Do you have to rinse the pump parts off before putting them in ziploc? Just to get the milk residue off?
