soo.. i feel like im not going to be able to breastfeed when baby is born now because im going to have to get a job right away. i had my heart set on it...i know i can pump at work but im going to be waitressing and where would i be able to? and my break isn't going to be long. What if he doesnt take a bottle after 6 weeks. ugh so upset 😧
@just9monthsx3, @georgiamay @livd15 @hippiegardenmama @aphrodite2014 @coraanne thanks everyone! i just thought if i breastfeed in the day and go to work at night will my booba hurt if i dont pump for the 7 hours or so??
If you're not able to exclusively breastfeed you can always breastfeed when you're home and supplement when you're at work and pump when you can. And even if you can only breastfeed for 6 weeks, that's better than nothing at all. Also, formula feeding isn't horrible, I know it's heartbreaking when you're set on breastfeeding but don't beat yourself up over it mama!
legally I believe they have to give you somewhere to pump that's appropriate and enough time my suggestion is get enough to tubing set for your pump that you don't have to spend time cleaning it right away then boil them to sanitize them when you get home..
save as much as you can before you go back to work. You will have the most in the beginning when it first comes in.
Also if you do pump you can get the breast milk supplement formula
I had lactation issues and both my girls were breast and bottle fed I started them on a bottle as soon as I could also it helps because then dad can help with some of the midnight feedings
you can go to the bathroom, that's what I'm going to have to do.
look up your state laws but they have to allow you to pump I believe.
@just9monthsx3, thats what im afraid of
I would start pumping and bottle feeding right after your milk comes in. Both of my sons refused the bottle at 6 weeks!
Im going on my 3 csection and i haven't been able to see how a csection is done😖 i wont even dare look on youtube i think i would be more scared!!!!
i think im ready to be single. im so so tired of this. im going to lose my mind.

They might at first until they regulate the amount of milk your baby eats.
