Breastmilk supply works on a supply and demand basis, which means the more you express, the more milk your body will make! But let’s face it, pumping breast milk takes up some time and requires a lot of patience and commitment.
While you can pump one breast at a time (even while the baby is feeding on the other breast), double pumping can be the most efficient way to pump milk from both breasts at the same time. This is especially great for mums who are working or on the go and need extra milk to store for future use or while she’s away from her baby.
Here are a few benefits why you should consider double pumping.
1. Time-Saving
Imagine pumping both breasts 20-30 minutes forsay about 8 times a day. Having 2 bottles to pump at the same time will help improve efficiency and save you time since you’re able to pump both breasts simultaneously.
2. Accumulate More Milk
Good breast drainage is important for maintaining and increasing milk supply – the more milk you pump, the more milk will be produced. Compared to single pumping, double pumping results in 18 percent more milk volume being pumped over a 20-30 minutes pumping duration and you’ll have good breast drainage to maintain and increase supply!
3. Higher Amount of High Energy Milk
The breastmilk expressed by double pumping is more likely to have higher fat content, which is beneficial for babies. Since young babies can only take very small volumes of milk, it is essential to have milk of high caloric value to support their growth.
