My son is only a week old and has been diagnosed with jaundice so his dr told me to stop breastfeeding him and supplement with formula... and I pump 10 ounces at a time every time I pump for him and it makes me sad because I can’t even freeze it because I have literally nothing to freeze all this milk in so I have to pump and dump and it literally breaks my heart everytime 😢😔

Has anyone else had this happen to them before.? I’m just so worried about my baby becoming more sick and having to toss away all his milk doesn’t help me feel any better ☹️ *Update*

So since I posted this I’ve been to the drs again and his bilirubin levels are going down slowly ... I found out that the wic office here in town takes breastmilk donations so I donated the 60-70 oz I had frozen to them and they donate it to the nicu babies in the area and they told me when I take him to the clinic and he gets his bilirubin levels under control that I can start giving him breast milk again thank you to all that have commented on this post and gave me more info on what I should do I’m glad I went out and looked for new information and talked to more people who have dealt with this before this has been a stressful journey so far but I’m glad I will be able to breast feed my son again soon 😊
