-- [ From: Carolyn Brown * EMC.Ver #2.5.02 ] --
What about hand expression rather than pumping? I don't know how well it
works when the milk supply is not full/well-established, but it is an
alternative where the mother is in control. I find the Marmet technique
described in LLL's _The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding_ comfortable and
effective (expressed all the milk my daughter needed from 2 months to 12
months while working 40 hours/week).
hope this helps
