Pumping Exclusively From Birth

Noelle

I’m debating between pumping exclusively from my baby’s birth or nursing for the first 4-5 weeks. I have to go back to work full time after 6 weeks so I’m assuming it’ll be easier to start earlier, but my girlfriends and mother have said sleep is going to be more important to me and nursing makes that much easier esp. since the baby will be in a bassinet in our room.

Any advice from anyone who’s pumped since birth?
