[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It made me utterly (udderly?) miserable. I had the fancy portable pump that you wear in your bra too, which made the whole thing somewhat bearable. I'd recommend combo feeding if nursing isn't an option.[/quote] Same. I had a really hard time with nursing, and an even harder time with pumping. I was such a wreck those first few weeks. I ended up supplementing with formula after about 4 weeks, then gave up entirely after 8 weeks. I was an emotional wreck because of all the noise out there about how important breast feeding is, which lead me to a lactation consultant, who then directed me to a therapist. I'm still a good, loving mom. My kids are healthy and smart, and I think we have a nice relationship. [/quote]
