Hi mummies. Will my supply be affected if my lo doesn't wake up middle of the night to feed ? And I don't want to pump to prevent disturbing him. So I'll usually do a morning pump, throughout the day I'll latch him, pump 1 side if he only feed on the other side, pump at 7pm & 9pm. So around 3 full pumps a day.

hi there. it depends on what is ur previous pattern of pumping. there are 2 ways to look at pumpkin. one is the pump every X hr. the other way is to use the boobs X times within a 24 hr period. so as long as u maintain that and the total number of minutes then u are good. otherwise any decrease will definitely be decreasing ur supply. on the other hand, prolactin hormone is the highest at night so u can get more milk at night actually so u are kind of short-changing urself by not latching or pumping during the most effective time too yar? maybe u want to consider pumping in the living room or the study room or just pump? baby in deep sleep shouldn't really be disturbed by it
