Pumping breast milk for your baby, with Emma McCabe

Most women use a breast pump at some stage during their breastfeeding experience, or many find themselves pumping all the way through. Pumping is demanding work. In this 2020 Baby podcast, Pam and Emma explore the role of pumping breast milk, including for increasing supply and returning to work. We explore strategies which support successful pumping, and also discuss problems which might arise and how to deal with them. We discuss when and how you might return to only feeding your baby directly from your breasts, and those situations when pumping might actually undermine your supply.

Emma McCabe is a popular breastfeeding counsellor in New York City, USA, and mother of two.
