Feeding your new baby

expressing milk

hello everyone,
could someone tell me please how long would be suitable to use a breast pump for each breast?
have just got a breast pump and it says it would probably be suitable to use it for no longer than 5mins each breast.
could someone also tell when you know when your breasts have "run out" as ive heard people say?
argh help, alex

Well, i tried to express for a while, and i found you know when your breasts are empty because no more milk comes out, and i didn't realise there was a time limit onthe pumps so i can't help you with that bit, good luck with it though xxx
