I started pumping at the beginning of this week.
I have been getting in 6 sessions a day. And I havent event started taking the herbs (no meds).
My boobs are sore... And I think a little bigger.
But everytime I pump, I get sooooo tired. At one point I went home from work (my office is 3-5 min away... so I sneak away to pump) and ended up falling asleep for over an hour!
Is this normal. I am not making any milk yet. So I dont see why the pumping would wipe me out.
Any feedback would be helpful
Thanks
Isn't there a hormone that is excreated during pumping/nursing that makes you super sleepy? I know while I was nursing I would get insanely tired. I think it just comes with the territory?

Thanks. I did some research. And you release a calming hormone when breast feeding. Just from the act ...no milk needed.
So the pumping does the same thing. I think it was oxytocin.
Any who... I am so tired when pumping. Need mini nap or coffee:coffee:
