He got breast milk for a month every other bottle... This time I am getting the hospital grade pumpQuote:

wanting a girl- pumping and nursing and taking the fenugreek, there is another one that is popular too but don't know the name. sorry you're lactation people weren't supportive. maybe try searching for a group i am sure there are other people in you're situation. good luck
i had a brand new pump gave to sil lol I don't work and my kids don't take a bottle thought it would be nice to have a stash for an emergency but i just hand pumped and got a couple oz. that way lol
It's definitely been impossible for us not to spend a fortune! But we'll be having baby showers in the coming months and I know that'll help a great deal. I'm having fun either way. :)
It's not my last for sure, we are still hoping for one more but it depends so it could be my last but I hope not..
Anyhooo even though it is another boy I am buying some new clothes as I am so sick of the other ones. We bought a new infant car seat as the other was close to expiration anyway. We also want to buy a new baby carrier. Small things bought that we buy for every babe would be a special baby blanket, stuffed animal, crib sheets, more burp cloths so we can throw the gross ones out--I am planning on making most though if I have time. I also received a few gifts over christmas for the baby.
