I exclusively pump and bottle feed my baby my breast milk. Generally I love exclusive pumping, but sometimes it's stressful and I wish I could do a mix of both nursing and pumping. I just want to know, has anyone on here exclusively pumped for their baby, and then later gotten help and been able to nurse them again? I'm just curious. My baby is 3 months old.

To add. These days I only pump when I'm at work and occasionally at night if my son passes out before emptying me completely. We're on vacation for a family wedding now and I didn't bring my pump and I feel so free. There's another mom with us and she left her little one behind and she's been pumping.
Yes yes. I exclusively pumped for 3 months before I got my son to latch for good. One day by chance I put my boob in his mouth and he took it. I was in let down mode and I guess the timing was right. Keep pumping and keep trying. It's been over a month now and it's the best thing that could have happened. It's not easy and I still haven't figured it all out but I wouldn't go back to exclusively pumping for anything. This bond is so much better than the bond with the machine. If you have any questions just message me
Thanks so much @valrocks that's encouraging to hear!
