HAND EXPRESSION STEPS

Wash your hands with soap and water.

Have a clean container (bowl or cup) ready to catch your milk.

Gently massage your breasts, stroking from the top toward the nipple.

Place your hand in a wide, C-shaped hold on the breast.

Press in and toward your chest wall.

Gently squeeze the breast to express milk, then relax. Don’t rub or move your fingers on your skin.

Rotate your fingers to another position on the breast and repeat.
