[quote=Anonymous]OP, tell everyone who will be there with you in the hospital supporting you during and after birth. Spouse, friend, parent, doula—whoever. Ask them to be ready to run interference. Keep in mind that once you express your decision to any lactation consultant who comes to talk to you, you are entitled to end the conversation. You don’t owe it to them to keep talking about it, you don’t owe it to them to try to convince them that you know what you are talking about. Feel free to say something like, “Thank you for coming. I have told you what my intentions are, and now I would like to rest, so could you please head out of my room?” You could add that you have their contact information in case you want to reach out in future.[/quote]
