Question

breastfeeding, ive been pumping. It just makes me feel uncomfortable and vulnerable. Has anyone else felt this way?" />

Answer

Have you breastfed before? What's uncomfortable for you?

Answer

It was the other way around for me - pumping made me uncomfortable. Have you tried meeting a lactation consultant?

Answer

I actually did not care for it. I was unable to do it with my first and I was super happy when I was able to do it with my second baby! Unfortunately I just didn’t feel the warm fuzzies that everyone talks about...I don’t feel any more bonded to him than with my first. I hated the feeling of him nursing. I ended up weaning at 3 months. I also just found it very hard to do and to take care of my 2 year old as well. I know lots of moms do it, I just never found a good rhythm. Do what is best for you. Fed it best!

Answer

Do what you need to do! 
our opinions are just that.
