[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My baby is only two weeks and I also hate breastfeeding. I’ve actually been exclusively pumping for two days now because my nipples were bleeding. I’m scared to put her back on the breast. When does it get better? How long should I keep trying before I throw in the towel?[/quote] Check with your doc but I would say bleeding nipples would be a "stop now" moment for me. Assuming you live someplace where clean water is readily available, there are plenty of other ways to feed your baby. General comment: I've always thought that the idea that women should breastfeed even when it's painful or burdensome is horribly misogynistic and devalues women's pain and time.[/quote]
