    Lots of women including myself exclusively pump for all different reasons.  my little one wouldn't latch at all. there is a great message board on iVilliage for exclusively pumping. totally suggest you to check it out. lots of great info. the more/longer you pump- the more you will make. how old is your child? in the beginning- before your milk regulates its really important to pump every 2 hours for at least 20 min- even during the night- pretty much any time the baby is eating a bottle of your milk you need to pump. GL!
