Best to pump in the morning. Many moms get the most milk first thing in the morning. Pump between breastfeeding, either 30-60 minutes after nursing or at least one hour before breastfeeding. This should leave plenty of milk for your baby at your next feeding.

Throughout the day – I pumped about four to six times.

I was always told to pump after feeding baby, regardless of the time of day. Ask health nurse for confirmation
