? for working bf'ing mama's

posted 15th Jul
Well Im going back to work this sat    Im 6 wks pp this week and have been off since May so I really need to get back but Im sooo worried about my supply and not being able to pump enough for my little girl to be satisifed while Im gone. Right now when I pump Im able to get about 2oz total isnt that a really small amount? How much milk were you able to pump at about 6 wks pp? Im not sure if this is normal or if its just my pump ( i have a medela harmony manual)Any input would be greatly appriciated I really want to keep bf but I also want to make sure that she is satisfied.( If worse comes to worse I dont work that far away and my hubby could bring her down for a feeding but I dont think my boss would be very happy about that) Im only going to be working 3 days a week so I really dont wnt to invest in a electric pump those suckers are freaking expensive!!! But Im thinking maybe I need a new manual... I dunno sry Im a little scatter brained today but like I said I appriciate any ideas!

i also found this for you! It says that it can take 2-3 pump sessions to pump enough for one feeding, b/c the pump isn't as efficient.
