breastfeeding (fm + bm)

i just gave birth last sunday, first time mom. pumped my first milk of 30ml. 2nd pump 10ml😅. 3rd pump nothing came out. since then no milk at all... i stopped pumping despite nurses pushing me to pump. my nipple super sore & i don’t wish to hurt myself more since i am already in so much pain after labour. my husband prepared a small tin of formula. the thing is i already bought a breast pump at home, a cheap one Real bubee. so i don’t want to waste. 2nd day discharge, i tried pumping, to my surprise i have milk produced. pumped 15 mins each breast to get 30ml. i was happy already. 3rd day i started to have mild milk engorgement, luckily my malay auntie massage my breast. ever since... my milk from 30ml each session, it became 150ml each session. don’t give up my dear. just keep pumping. & standby formula. the baby get best of both worlds.☺️☺️
