How does breast compression work, and when to use to maximize milk supply?

Hi Jessica, thank you for these questions! Breast compressions don't actually help to maximise milk supply; they help with milk flow, hence, usually after breast compressions, you'd notice "more" milk and that's because the milk in your breasts is able to flow out more smoothly. Breast compressions can be done when you're nursing or pumping as they increases the flow of the milk. They are especially helpful for babies with poor weight gain, babies for nurse very frequently, babies who nurse for very long periods (45 mins and over) and premature babies. Hope this explains!
