If you’re looking to boost your supply, consider hitting the ground running (so to speak) first thing in the morning. Lots of moms find that a little early morning pumping can have a BIG impact on supply. It’ll take your body a bit of time to get used to the increased demand, but you’ll be seeing the benefits before you know it.
Of course, as any sleep-deprived mama can tell you, swapping precious minutes of shut-eye to sneak in an extra pumping session doesn’t always sound like the best deal. The good news is that you just might find that starting your day off pumping puts you in a much happier and well-balanced frame of mind than the typical morning routine.
Want to do yourself one better? Turn that early-a.m. pumping routine into a personal ritual that just might become one of the peaceful highlights of your day. Take your pumping time and turn it into something more…think morning beverage and maybe a little quiet reading time or web scrolling. We hope you enjoy your new morning routine!
(And keep in mind that PumpEase is one way to get even more out of any pumping session. Take your bliss to another level by pumping hands free!)
