Default Re: Pumping help needed badly!!

you *may* have better luck if you try hand expressing to get the milk flowing first, and then use the pump, or if not, you can definately use breast compression to encourage it to come out, heatpaks or a hot shower right before pumping can help the milk flow as well. also, sniffing a blanket they've been wrapped in seems to help, as does looking at pics of them etc.

how are the lil ones with attempting to nurse?
