i'd say it's up to you. some mothers have more supply (i'd believe sometimes it's due to pumping after latch); i find mine useless cuz i direct latch and just so you know, your body will eventually pick up and learn the cues of the demand of milk flow and timing. first few days (once milk comes in approx from 3rd day), there would be engorgement time to time. sometimes baby might sleep slightly longer in between certain feeds and might need to pump due to discomfort. i find it abit useless cuz everytime i wanted to pump, my newborn (that point of time) will wake up and asked to latch again 😂 after the first month, body is starting to learn the cues and the engorgement won't feel as bad as the first few days. if you plan to spare some time to pump in between, then yes you'll need them! unless you're like me, stopped work and is with my baby 24/7, i don't mind latching 😋
