I breastfeed.. For just over 3 weeks so far.. Its working well and I have alot of milk but sometimes she takes a long time to nurse and sometimes that annoys me .. I want to get a pump so that other ppl can feed her and I can do other things sometimes.. Hopefully I can soon.. But I am doing pretty good breastfeeding it hardly hurts anymore she latches really well usually.. My breasts still get really engorged and leak alot though and it hurts when my milk is coming in but only for about half a minute.. I have a pump but it doesnt work for me I cant get any milk to come out but ifi just hold the pump over my breast without turning it on and let the baby nurse on the opposite one I can get like 2 ounces per feeding out my breast just by letting it leak into the pump its crazy

I breastfeed for three months, but then I was put on medication for migraines. I've been suffering from migraines for about ten years now. Otherwise I would of tried to breast feed for longer. Not to mention how quickly I lost the wait, while breastfeeding.

I only bottlefed....I was afraid of failing at breastfeeding. I sort of regret it though. My next child I will give breastfeeding a try though.
