FTM - questions about BF

ceereneephotog

I'm due in August, and I want to try out breastfeeding and see how it goes , but I want to pump full time. So heres a few questions .. ( Some may sound stupid lol )

 

Do you start producing milk before baby comes ? I have this question because I've been reading about BFing but don't find much when it comes to pumping.. And I read how they encourage you to nurse once baby is born in the hospital, but I'd much rather have it pumped and feed it by bottle... 

 

Also, I was wondering the nessecities for  pumping, I'm going to buy a manual pump.. I want to do the storage bags, etc.
