I've heard that in the morning is best.

Yes, you are supposed to express after baby has fed. I always find I can express WAY more in the morning, and even at lunchtime. At night time I get next to nothing.

My routine was to express after the first feed in the morning and to express just before going to bed at night.

I tended to express after most morning feeds as I had a bigger supply then. Afternoons and evenings I didn't seem to be able to get enough off to be worth the effort of expressing.

Oh and its best after baby has been fed, or while you are feeding if baby only takes one side. My girl only ever took one side at a feed and that was plenty for her.

My boy only ever had 1 side a feed, so I would express off the other side while he fed, during the first feed of the day. I got loads off because the other side let down at the same time as the side he was feeding on
