Has anyone been able to successfully pump and feed instead of actually latching their baby on? the nurses have mentioned it as a backup plan since I'm having so many issues with getting him to latch and then staying latched without destroying my nipples and I was wondering if it was possible to do that successfully in place of latching....

@aydans.mommy, I think I put it under breastfeeding. I tried to tag you in it

If you're referring to the post asking about the foremilk/hindmilk imbalance that is a very good question, and one that I unfortunately don't know the answer to :/. Now I'm interested though and I'm gonna ask my LC when I can, but if you can get in touch with a lactation consultant and get the answer before me then please let me know

It's not on my main feed, what did you tag it as? @jaeparm

@aydans.mommy, @annasmomma12 @emkasting I have so many questions about pumping. I just made a long post could any of you read it and answer my questions? or give me any advice?

That's what I'm doing now, my baby was in the NICU for almost 3 weeks and he got used to the bottle so now when I try to put him to breast he gets super super frustrated and most of the time won't latch. So I pump and give him a bottle and it seems to work great!

it definitely works, my son wouldn't latch so I pumped for him.... I have also talked to women who pumped for over a year

Anna wouldn't latch after we left the hospital so I had to pump for ten months until my milk finally dried up

I have that issues with him breastfeeding so I pump and feed him successfully...it is a lot of work but worth it since all he's eaten is breastmilk
