Default Re: Who's breastfeeding their babies?

I tried to breastfeed my daughter, but we had awful times latching on. It was so stressful for both of us and at about 1 week (after she had been in the hospital with jaundice), I just couldn't do it anymore, so I started pumping (that was more time consuming than anything I know). For 4 months (until I had to go into the hospital), we gave her pumped breast milk and formula. Although time consuming and tiring, I think it was well worth it. I am going to try breastfeeding again if we have another baby.
