My IPs want me to pump and they want to pay me for my time and they said to tell them how much, but since I have never done this I don't know how much to tell them. Does anybody have any experience in this and know how much to charge? Also where can we get a new breast pump?

I know NICU furnished us with a pump while my babies where in the hospital (about a month). Most hospitals have a lactation consultant that can help with lactation and can set you up with a pump and supplies. As far as time goes, you aren't suppose to go over 5 hours between pumpings so I was told. Best I remember it took about 20minutes to pump but my supply wasn't great either. Good luck!!!
