Help with starting to pump
in GP Moms
Hey ladies! I go back to work on April 1. I will be working every Monday, and once or twice a month I'll work an additional wed/thur. Currently E eats about every 2-2.5 hours during the day. I'm not sure how I should start pumping for work. Should I pump right after our first morning session? I don't really want to pump in the middle of the night. And I have some milk frozen already.

I tried to look on Kellymom but it really talks more about actually pumping at work, not about how to start and add in a session before you go back to work. Thanks!
