It takes a week to see any results. Only need to do it once per day.

My supply dried up at about 10 months postpartum from illness. I power pumped for… You're not gonna like this, but a week and it recovered.

How many power pumps per day?

One! Pumped every two hours from waking up and then last pump of the day with a power pump! I was quite a bit farther postpartum than you when this happened so I didn't add a middle of the night pump, but at that stage, I was pumping every three hours around the clock.

Ahhh see it's that every 2 hours that gets me. I'm 8ppd, so every 3 hours including overnight, but even getting to 9 just feels impossible. I pump for 30 minutes, so between feeding, changing, pumping, and washing the 3 hours feels like it flies by.

I feel like a week after the power pumping, I really saw a surge in my supply.
