I'm not going to be breastfeeding at night or pumping because I take epilepsy meds and that's when…

You will be really really engorged, very uncomfortable and yea you need to keep up with your supply

So should I just pump and dump? @meghanrae I REALLY hate to be wasting all of that lol

It sounds like it if you can't let you baby have that milk.. But I'm not completely sure... I would call your OBGYN and ask your doctor what to do. Or if you have a Lactation consultant I would ask her. @thompsonmomma just to be sure

I agree. . if you can't feed it you should pump and dump.. it will hurt your supply otherwise.

There's one at the wic office, im going to ask her. I know my medicine makes me really drowsy at night time but that's really the only side effect it has so im wondering if it would just be okay to breastfeed him and night @meghanrae

don't dump! use it in baby's bath! that way it's not being wasted :)

What do you mean? @jaeparm like a milk bath?

save the milk by freezing it and at bath time each night thaw some out and put it in the bath water, enough to make it cloudy. it's good for baby acne, diaper rash, dry skin, and cradle cap. when I have to throw milk away it makes me wanna cry so this would be a good way to avoid that :)

Oh, I didn't even know that! Thankyou! I'll use it for that!! @jaeparm

Yes defintity call your WIC office for a Lactation consultant, sorry I didn't get the notification. @thompsonmomma

if you are told you can't feed him the milk you can turn it into a lotion for yourself

you're welcome!
