[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. For those who pumped, did you follow your current feeding schedule or did you spread out your pumps? How often did you pump at 2 weeks old? Did you go a long period between pumps to get sleep at night? Did your supply decrease?[/quote] I stopped breastfeed and switched to exclusively pumping at 2.5 months with each of my two children. At 2 weeks, you should be removing milk every 3-4 hours, including overnight, to establish your supply. I slowly stretched that out and eventually dropped overnight pumping at about 4 months with my first and a little earlier with my second. But it is hard to give specific advice because a lot depends on your supply (I had an oversupply, and also wanted to build up a supply of frozen milk). [/quote]
