Hi,
Welcome to Amity. First off, your baby is always the best way of getting milk out of your breast. The pump is a distant second in comfort or efficiency. Try latching on your babe and get him/her working to make the amount of milk she needs whenever and for as long as s/he needs.
Second, if you have a three week old, it might be a good idea to try to back off of all of the activity for a bit until you have recovered from childbirth and gotten your breastfeeding relationship established. Those first few months are hard, and going slower, savoring your baby, drinking enough fluids, eating enough and sleeping enough are all important factors in creating a sustaining, satisfying and happy breastfeeding relationship.
I hope your migraine is better, the surely do suck!
Hugs,
Misty
