Wow, that really makes me feel better! Thanks so much!
We have been giving him bottles, actually. My husband does it so he can have some more time with the baby, and my son eats very well from a bottle since we found the right nipple for him. Unfortunately, getting time to pump at work isn't feasible. A lot of the time I'll be by myself and won't be able to leave the counter (I work in a deli in a grocery store). And buying another pump may be out of the question. We just had the baby and just bought a house, so cash is really tight. I know I can pump at other times during the day. I don't want to quit breastfeeding no matter how hard it gets, but I don't want it to be difficult. I'm probably worried it will be worse that it is, but I'm one of those worst case scenario people...I'll definitely try to stay positive, and thanks again for the encouragement!
