I don't have any advice that comes from experience. I'm planning to breastfeed myself. I have heard there is a lot of problems that can happen in breastfeeding so I am doing an Australian breastfeeding association course this month. The association has breastfeeding councellors that have helped a lot of women with breastfeeding. The reason I mention this is maybe there is a similar organisation in America you could call?

Good luck and I hope you get some more replies.

If it is a manual pump, the small amount is usual. I read in a book called baby love it takes a week to express a single meal from a manual pump. An electronic pump produces more milk and might be worth looking into.
