Good job OP!!!
I EP too. It's amazing how fast my freezer has filled up! This morning I pumped 15oz what a great start to my day! How long have you been EP?

Doesn't it feel great to see how much your body can produce? I exclusively pump and I love seeing how much I produce. :) I have a freezer full and I'm so proud of it! Hahaha.

My DD is 6 weeks old. I tried to nurse but she was introduced to the bottle while in the NICU (was there for 2 days) so it was hard to get her to latch and eat off me so I've pumped from day 1. Tried to bf for about 3 weeks then gave in. At least she is getting what she needs.

Bottom line she's getting your milk! It's a huge sacrifice IMO. Good for you! I started out very similarly. My ds was in the nicu for 2 weeks and nursed most of the time. He got pumped milk while I was away from the hospital. Once he was home he was barely able to maintain his weight at breast but with the bottle he did very well. He's 5 1/2 months and I've been pumping for 4 1/2.

Awesome! It is absolutely a sacrifice but so worth it!
