[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Something I did was to pull baby off when my milk let down, give it a minute, and then re-latch. It didn’t last forever - once he was bigger it was easier for him to handle the bigger letdown. [/quote] Yes this. And you are right OP, do NOT pump, yes it will/could make things worse. Take advantage of your powerful letdown though! I had the same scenario as you and it worked out just as PP says. But I wised up when I had my second and third baby. I got the Milkies milk savers and when I nursed, I would stick one in the non-nursing side. I would collect 1-2 ounces of milk Just from the non nursing side letdown, from each session. I swear I had a freezer full of saved breastmilk and never touched a pump. Granted, it is all the more watery foremilk, but totally fine for an occasional bottle. . [/quote]
