I found this to be true also, when I was following "typical" pumping tips
like:
1) think of the baby
2) bring something that smells like the baby with you
3) look at a picture of the baby
I was finally able to pump successfully and I learned what worked for me
absolutely by accident.
I had to totally engross my mind on some other task and "forget" that I was
pumping... then watch out! I could overflow a 4 ounce bottle in moments.
So, for me, I think it was absolutely a mental/psychological block which may
have been rooted in the fact that I did not want to be away from my baby.

Subject: can't get milk with a pump
"I could never, with any pump, even
hospital grade get more than an ounce, but with hand expression could
easily fill an 8oz bottle in 10 minutes."
Ah, now this is one of our own saying this. What's going on? Wrong =
flange size? Such a negative reaction to the pump that milk release is =
totally inhibited? There must be others among us who've had the same =
experience. I think we can probably learn some things from one another. =
I mean, a good pump, a full milk supply, how many reasons can there be =
that a good pump doesn't work?
