Breast pumps are generally used to insure continued production of breast milk
when you cannot feed your baby - whether you are back to work, travelling,
taking medication, or just out of town.
Just like breast feeding, breast pumping is a skill that you learn. When first trying a
breast pump, most mothers are only able to express a few drops of milk. With
the proper practice and knowledge, the mother will be more efficient at
pumping using a breast pump.
