PUMPING DOESN’T HAVE TO BE STRESSFUL

While many women believe pumping will be easy, very few can pump effectively from the start. In PUMP It A Practical Guide to Confident & Efficient Breast Pumping, we offer a comprehensive yet concise review of the entire pumping process. We examine why women choose to pump, the basics of cycling and vacuum speeds, accurate flange sizing, sample pumping schedules, choosing the right bottle, potential pumping problems and how to get the most out of your pump. We examine effective let down strategies and delve into supply anxiety and the struggle to make enough. We also focus on creating the best possible milk supply in the first place

About the author

Mindy Cockeram has been educating women and their partners about Childbirth and Breastfeeding since 2005. She certified through the University of Bedfordshire studying Antenatal Education in conjunction with the National Childbirth Trust's (NCT) Teacher Training College in London.

On the way to teach a childbirth class one evening in Wandsworth, South West London, she stumbled upon a woman in labor in the parking lot and 'caught' the baby before the ambulance arrived. "I knew there was a reason for that coincidence and that I was in the right line of work" she said in an interview with London's ITV.

After 20 years in the UK, Mindy and her family relocated to Southern California in 2010 where she certified with Lamaze International. She now writes for several online publications and teaches childbirth education and breastfeeding both privately and for a large hospital organization several times a week. Her first book Cut Your Labor In Half: 19 Secrets To a Faster & Easier Birth was published in November of 2017. Breastfeeding Doesn't Have to Suck: Tips, Tricks & Knowledge for a Great Experience was released in September, 2019. She is currently writing a 3rd book for 2nd or subsequent pregnancies.
