Breastpumping nakakawala ba ng gatas?

Hi mommy. Hindi naman po nakakawala ng gatas ang pagpump. Ang breastmilk production po kasi natin ay based on Supply and Demand, so the more milk ang nae-extract from our breast then the more it signals our body to produce milk. Hindi rin naman po sa hindi effective ang mga galactagogues (malunggay capsules, etc.) but it's completely unnecessary since "unlilatch"/ feed on demand is more than enough to stimulate breastmilk production ☺️ So need magpadede para dumami ang gatas, hindi yung hihintayin magkagatas bago magpadede 😊 Reminder lang po na ang breastmilk output should not be measured by the amount of milk we are able to pump dahil ang pump is not as efficient as baby sa pagkuha ng gatas sa breast natin ☺️ The proper way of measuring bm is through baby's output-- pupu, wiwi at pawis. Also remember that breastfeeding is not just for nutrition but for comfort as well kaya may tendency si baby na magbabad sa breast natin 😁 At hindi kada iyak means gutom sya. If always fussy si baby and prefers bottles over direct latch, possible po na na may "nipple confusion" na si baby. If you want to educate yourself more about proper breastfeeding, I recommend po that you join the FB group "Breastfeeding Pinays" ☺️

nursing or breastfeeding is more effective in increasing milk supply. continue to breastpump frequently or more often, because it will still produce milk because of the demand. if breasts are full, magsstop magproduce ng milk. so if inadequate ang breastpumping, magrereduce ang milk supply. iwas din sa stress. it might cause decrease in milk supply.
