[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First of all you are doing great and there is no wrong answer. Second there is NO WAY I personally would commit to EPing at this stage. Newborns take a long time to feed and everything you describe is totally normal. But he won’t be like this much longer most likely. They learn to feed very quickly. Mine could do 5 min a side and drain my breast once they were a few months old. It’s night and day compared to newborn days. It’s also sooooo much easier than EPing for a year.[/quote] OP here. I wouldn’t EP for a year. I’m not sure I will even breastfeed for a year. I’m going to see how it goes once I go back to work in January and decide. This is why I introduced formula to make sure he’s used to it if I decide to quit. Pumping just seems easier but I know it may not longterm. It’s just so exhausting. He eats every 2 hours and sometimes up to 1 hour each feeding. I can pump and be done in 20 minutes. [/quote]
