I have a question for the breastfeeding moms out there.
Okay so I'm a stay at home mom with my 1 1/2 year old daughter with baby #2 on the way. My daughter was born with a lip and tongue tie and wouldn't latch. Our breastfeeding journey didn't last long. This time I'm really hoping to do everything I can to breastfeed our little boy. I have already purchased a manual pump and a nipple shield but was wondering if I needed to get an electric pump since I will be home with him 98% of the time. I'm looking at buying the specta s2 but don't wanna spent $200 dollars if I won't need it. Any and all advice to help me be able to successfully breastfeed this time would be great.

@ashleydunn, Thank you. I do plan on having him checked for ties as well, just really hoping he won't have issues latching like his sister. :)

Breastfeeding moms: so I am planning on going on a 3 day vacation with my hubby & a bunch of friends to Catalina in May, (my baby won't be going with us) and I do not wanna be pumping and dumping every 2 hours out there.. so if I don't pump or breastfeed for 3-4 days, will my milk supply drop significantly? 😩😩 & I don't know how I'm gonna deal with the engorgement pain if I can't find time to pump out there.
Breastfeeding question
Do I absolutely need a pump? I am planning to exclusively breastfeed. Since I stay at home I was just wondering if I absolutely need a pump. I don't wanna buy one and bottles if I don't have to.
So, I'm a first time mom, and i plan on exclusively breastfeeding my daughter. I will be a stay at home mom so I will always be available to her. Mommies like me, when exclusively breastfeeding are there still times when you need to pump? I'm not sure how that works. I guess I just don't have a great understanding of breastfeeding yet. I have 2 classes scheduled and a support group I plan to attend, but, if you wouldn't mind sharing your breastfeeding knowledge in my comments I'd love to start l...
I'm also a sahm and honestly I didn't really use my electric pump I jus use the manual pump. Usually in the mornings when I'm full from baby sleeping through the night. Ur insurance provides u with a free pump u shud call them n f8nd out.
