Staying Consistent
Hey Pumping Warriors! ⏰ Whether you’re exclusively pumping, combo feeding, or just adding in a few sessions a day—your schedule matters. Staying on track with your pumping sessions is one of the most powerful ways to protect your milk supply and support your goals. 💛
Here are 5 reasons why staying on a pumping schedule matters:
Protects Your Supply – Your body produces based on demand. Skipping sessions can signal your body to slow down milk production.
Prevents Engorgement & Clogs – Pumping regularly helps keep your breasts comfortably drained and reduces the risk of clogged ducts or mastitis.
Supports Long-Term Goals – A consistent routine makes it easier to reach your short-term and long-term pumping milestones.
Boosts Hormone Regulation – Regular pumping helps maintain your prolactin levels, the hormone that stimulates milk production.
And I mean I'm even planning to book a prenatal consult if I ever get pregnant again because her wealth of knowledge is worth its weight in gold.
