[quote=Anonymous]OP, I don't think you're a bad dad, but your title is raising people's hackles. I exclusively pumped for a year because my child also wouldn't latch. Has your wife read any EP forums or chat boards for support? At 3 months, they say supply is established and you can drop the middle of the night pump. I ended up finding my sweet spot (36-42 oz) at a very manageable 4 pumps a day, none of which were middle of the night pumps. If your wife is willing to try dropping pumps, she may find her production remains the same or increases, which will get her quality of life back. Also, I think you're right to be concerned about her mental health and as PP have suggested, should get her screened for PPD. Good luck.[/quote]
