When you breastfeed or pump you release oxytocin in your system that is the natural form of pitocin. Right after birth when you breastfeed your uterus will contract because of this. The oxytocin causes your breasts to contract something that causes your body to let the milk down or something like that. That is why it can bring on preterm labor and very dangerous to do while you are pregnant especially if your baby isn't ready to come out yet. The only time it's recommended is when you have gone post-dates and your practitioner has recommended this as one of the ways to help bring on labor. It is always best to ask your practitioner and/or a lactation nurse before beginning anything new in your pregnancy.
