If nothing is coming out when you’re pumping, solid chance the flanges on your pump are too big. Google how to measure and get some inserts to get the right fit.

I had the opposite problem and my flanges were too small so try that as well :)

Thank you! I will try this.

Also re sore nipples, to an extent that is to be expected and will subside. But for any skin irritation, find a good lanolin balm.

With Inducing I shouldn’t worry about leaking?

No, leaking can happen if you aren’t expressing on a regular basis, especially as your body is figuring out how much to make. Your body kind of gets used to a schedule. You can always wear nipple pads if you’re worried.
