From: Using milk flow rate to investigate milk ejection in the left and right breasts during simultaneous breast expression in women

Figure 7

A unilateral milk flow rate response of a mother measured by the Showmilk during double pumping. A milk ejection was identified in the left breast at 10 minutes and 18 seconds (↓) but not in the right breast at that time. Typically these incidents occur in the final 5 minutes of breast expression. The cumulative weight of the expressed milk is represented for both the left (blue) and right (grey) breasts. The weight data was derived to obtain a milk flow rate value in g/s for the left (orange) and right (red) breasts.
