[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do whatever it takes to avoid exclusively pumping. It’s the worst of both worlds.[/quote] This. I did it with child 1 and swore never again. I didn’t have considerable volume, so couldn’t stock much in advance so in a way was pumping for every feeding. It was joyless, it felt like I was attached to the machine all the time instead of the baby. It was hard to time the pumping cause needed to do it before the baby needed to feed. Feeding took double the time at least with first pumping, then feeding, then washing bottles etc. including at night. It was hard to go out for any considerable length of time cause need to pump (even if bring pumped milk or formula, still need to pump because of discomfort, and to maintain supply). It’s literally worst that can be. If you cannot manage to breast feed, pump some and combine with formula to get some relief and be more mobile. [/quote]
