I only did it for the first month, I was huge but nothing would come out only like 2-3 oz, too painful so stopped it. Hoping that changes with my second though.
I did for the first week. But it was too stressful. In the hospital it worked by then again I had nurses help. Once we got home he wouldn't latch. Or he wouldn't be on correctly. My hematologist told me I should just stop. Because it was taking to much out of me and being anemic wasn't helping. And he just seemed to take to a bottle a lot better
I tried with my first and it didn't work out. By day 6 I threw in the towel. My second I breastfed her until 6 months then I started having forceful let down and I was trying to fix it and it was just too painful so I switched her at that point
