I nursed 6, have small breasts, never felt a letdown ever, never leaked or dripped a drop.  Could not express for my first.  Trial and error worked for me, I really needed to rotate my fingers around and get the rhythm down.  I remember talking to a full time working mom in S.Chicago who was a LLL leader (she didn't tell LLL at the time) who expressed by hand.  I also remember being told to heat up a canning jar and put my breast inside and when the pressure started to change, milk would come out! I never tried it.
