When pumping to increase milk supply, it's recommended that you (double) pump for at least 15 minutes; to ensure that the pump removes an optimum amount of milk from the breast, keep pumping for 2-5 minutes after the last drops of milk.

You may get milk immediately, but if you don't… don't give up! It may take some women only a few days to develop their supply. Others pump for several weeks before they see a significant increase in their supply.

After 3–4 days of making colostrum, your breasts will start to feel firmer. This is a sign that your milk supply is increasing and changing from colostrum to mature milk. Your milk may become whiter and creamier, but this varies between women.

It's generally safe to take loperamide for a couple of days while you're breastfeeding. Very small amounts of loperamide may get into breast milk but not enough to harm your baby. If you want to take loperamide for more than 2 days, talk to your doctor.

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.

It takes about three days to four days for your milk to come in if you're a first-time mum. If you've had a baby before, it can happen more quickly. This may be because your breasts "remember" what to do from your previous pregnancy and birth.

The drug has a half-life of over 4 days, which means it will take 2 to 3 weeks for the medicine to reach a stable level in the body once it has begun or the dose has been changed.

Aim to spend 15 to 20 minutes hooked up to the pump to net a good amount of breast milk (some women will need 30 minutes or more with the pump, especially in the early days). Pump until the milk starts slowing down and your breasts feel well-drained.

Alcohol levels are usually highest in breast milk 30-60 minutes after an alcoholic beverage is consumed, and can be generally detected in breast milk for about 2-3 hours per drink after it is consumed. However, the length of time alcohol can be detected in breast milk will increase the more alcohol a mother consumes.

Breastmilk bottle-feeding That is because breastmilk has more nutrients per ounce, and babies digest it more fully. Between 1 and 4 months old, most breastfed babies will take in 2 to 4 ounces of breastmilk from a bottle every three hours.

This is because it can take a newborn baby a long time (ie half-life of 50–100 hours) to process caffeine. By 3–4 months, however, it takes a baby only about 3–7 hours. Authorities recommend that pregnant or breastfeeding mothers should not exceed 200 mg caffeine per day.

If you do take Benadryl, most of the drug is completely metabolized from the body 24 to 48 hours after dosing. You can reasonably rely on the drug not being in the breast milk in significant concentrations after one to two days.
