How often should I pump?

Breast Pump Frequency

If you are going to bottle-feed the baby exclusively using your breast milk then you want to pump six to eight times each day to make sure that you keep producing milk.

You may also alternate between the breastfeeding and bottle feeding. In this case, you want to pump in between feedings if you know that you will be away from the baby.
