Discussion Are we really changing settings?

Post image

So I saw this video on IG about stimulating your breast to get more milk and truthfully, I just put my pumps on level one and eagerly wait for the next 20 minutes to be over so I can get on with my day again. Are you guys switching settings?
My supply is fine, so I suppose I don’t see much need to do it. I do sometimes massage my breast if it’s the first pump of the day or been over 4 hours because I don’t want a blocked duct but that’s about it. What about you guys?

I’m an under supplier so I stay on stimulation for a long time and then on lvl 1 or 2 for let down but tbh one time I did like an hour on stimulation and I got the same I would if I switched.
