[quote=Anonymous]I did what is called triple feeding: nursed for 20 minutes total on one side. Then I handed off the baby and pumped both sides for 10 minutes. Whatever I pumped was given to the baby. At first I got drops after pumping. But I did it religiously for a day and a half at every feeding. On the second day, I was pumping 5oz after I had just nursed for 20 minutes. Clearly my supply cranked up, and baby gained a lot in a few days. I did this with both kids. Not going to lie—it was intense. But it was just for a couple of days. Once we did that weight check, I backed off that pumping session after nursing. Definitely needed help of spouse to hand off baby while I pumped right after nursing. [/quote]
