Need advice on quitting
I've been EP since 3 weeks PP. My son had lost 20 oz since birth and the pediatrician wanted us to monitor exactly how much he was getting. We just could not make breastfeeding work. He finally started gaining weight, and is happy and healthy on a mix of formula and milk. But now at 9 weeks, I'm miserable. I feel chained to the pump, planning the entire day around the next 3.5 hour chunk before the next pump. I'm only getting about an ounce on each side. And I know having PCOS isn't helping.
Please help! Should I just quit? Have you dealt with this? I already feel like a failure bc I couldn't make breastfeeding work. Fear of failing at pumping is what keeps me going.
