Скачать или смотреть Do I have to pump at night? - Breastfeeding & Pumping help from an IBCLC

In this video, Anna (IBCLC) discusses whether or not pumping at night is necessary.

If you are exclusively breastfeeding and your baby wakes up at night to feed, there is no need to pump. However, if you are exclusively pumping, it is recommended to pump during the night to maintain your milk supply.

Prolactin levels, which are responsible for milk production, are highest during the nighttime hours, so pumping during this time can help boost your supply.

In the early weeks, it is recommended to breastfeed or pump at least every three hours, including at night.

As the baby gets older, you can go longer between feedings or pumping sessions at night but regular sessions during the day are still important to maintain supply.

Watch for a separate video on milk supply for more information.
