10.2 Method

Milk should be expressed from each breast
in turn.
The amount of time needed to express milk
will vary considerably from one person to
another.

10.3 Quantity of milk

Don't be surprised if, at first, it takes a little
while for the milk to start flowing properly.
This is not unusual. In fact it is quite normal
because
milk production adapts itself to
daily requirements.
This means that the quantity of milk
produced may vary considerably.
• Always make sure that you drink plenty of
liquids.

10.4 Let-down reflex

During natural breastfeeding, placing the
baby on the breast stimulates the let-down
reflex and milk begins to flow. You can also
stimulate the let-down reflex as follows:
• Find yourself a quiet place to sit, where
you can relax fully when expressing, and
avoid stress.
• Adopt a comfortable and relaxed sitting
position.
• Place a warm compress on your breast
for a few minutes to relax the tissue, and
massage your breast.
• Ensure you have eye contact with your
baby. If this is not possible, it may help to
look at a photo of your baby.
• The let-down reflex triggers milk flow in
both breasts simultaneously. You can use
the NUK Breast Shell Set to collect
breast milk leaking from the breast you
are not currently expressing.
