Expressing milk

I'm expressing ready to return to work. Each time I manage about 1-2 oz. What's normal per pumping session? Thanks!

Is that from both breasts? I used to pump about 3 or 4 oz from each breast though I did have quite an overactive supply. How old is your baby? You'll need to work out how much they need.

The Kellymom website suggests between 1 and 3oz per expressing session (in total, not for each breast), assuming you're expressing between feeds.
