Difference?  

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
Is there a difference between pumping and actually breastfeeding as far as trying to bring on labor?

I don't have any first hand experience, but my understanding is that it takes *hours* of continuous pumping to stimulate a good labor pattern, if it does. Nursing for a normal length of time or nipple stimulation during DTD is unlikely to have a strong enough effect.

Like I said, no first hand experience, so I'm interested in the answers from BTDT mamas!
