Here's a summary of what we're getting into in this episode:

1. Try to wait until after the first 6 weeks to pump
2. Milk-making hormone, prolactin surges overnight - best time to have baby on breast/chest
3. Pumps are not as effective as a baby
4. How long to pump for depending on if you're away from Baby or just building up storage
