My son was born 2 weeks ago, 9 weeks premature, and is still in the hospital for another two weeks or so. I'm pumping for him and was wondering two things: is it possible for one breast to produce more milk than the other and is it normal to produce more milk in the morning than at night? Between both breasts, I can pump almost 16 ounces when I wake up in the middle of the night, but at the last pumping before bed, I can only pump about 8 ounces. Is it because I go a longer time without pumping during the night and it's been accumulating? I just hope I'm doing everything right because my first was also 9 weeks premature and I pumped for him, but my milk dried up after only two months. I was hoping to go at least six months, if not a year, with this baby.
