Q.

I have come across the blog https://fstcry.in/ywpwsixBtnDTzP9A8 that talks about side effects of using breast pump. I see contradictory statement that usage of breast pump will increase the milk supply as pros and in cons it says it will decrease the supply.. Also there is a statement saying continuous usage of manual pump will decrease and the suggestion is to use automatic pump. Pls clarify what should be used to increase breast milk products when the baby is not latching properly.

A. Thanks doc. Are u saying the usage of breast pump will not produce Oxytoxin and hence will decrease the milk production?

A. that will be the oxytocin production when baby will be sucking at the breast and it will be getting proper milk required for the baby but expressing manually is not going to help

A. It's absolutely OK to pump your breast milk and give it to your baby in a bottle. Pumping is a great way to provide your child with your breast milk without putting them to the breast.
