Got an electric breastpump!

in Parenting after a Loss

Through 3.56 million phone calls between my insurance and my doctor, I got a medela symphony to rent seeing Vince has nursing issues due to thrush and DS. My supply REALLY tanked after he got thrush (though I still don't have it, I thought it was why) and the hand pump I did have worked - but it kills! 

 Here's hoping to success!

    LOL love the gif...
    Good luck with the breastpump, I think you'll see a huge difference with it. If your supply tanked try eating some oatmeal, lots of water, and mothers milk.

     I definitely felt married to my pump for a while in the beginning when DS was in NICU and when we were home and he was having latching issues due to tongue tie.  Thank God phones now come with internet access. Plus I had a boatload of pics o
