For those of you who are pumping for your babies, I found a really informative video from the Stanford School of Medicine, that shows some pumping techniques that really help increase the amount of milk that is expressed.

I have used a combination of hand expression and pumping and I can attest that it definitely does make a significant difference. I was able to get another ounce or more, when I combined hand expression. I hope this is helpful for those of you that are pumping. I know pumping can be very frustrating and time consuming so every little thing that helps to make it more efficient really lightens the frustration.
