 Go me! LOLReally though, I'm pretty proud of myself. Unfortunately we will have to start supplementing within the next few weeks as I will be away from baby/pump for too long but we are still going to nurse at night and pump when I can.

Sky, that is amazing. Any amount of time you can do it is sooo beneficial! Hats off to you hun, it is very hard... I know a girl who just found out she's pregnant and has already decided NOT to breastfeed. I totally understand if someone is unable to do it, but I think it's really important to try and not just dismiss it as "gross" You have given an amazing gift to your son  | |||

Sky that is so awesome. You should be very proud!!! You should be proud that you are willing to continue as much as you can as well. Here are some tips for you from other sites. ( I don't know if they are all out pumping or if they discuss supplementing as well, but I thought it might help you out! Breastfeeding for Working Mothers http://messageboards.ivillage.com/iv-ppworkpump LLLI | Page Not Found LLLI | Page Not Found this is a board that is just for moms that supplement and pump (miht be nice to talk to tothers that have done what you are going to do!)

That's awesome Sky! When I had Dd we had a latching problem and I actually pumped exclusively for the full duration, which for me was 9 months. I tried to make it to 12, but that was the best I could do. LOL I remember having my entire freezer full of frozen breast milk.
