So I’ve gone the route of expressing, which is the next best thing I suppose. It kinda sucks that I have to spend a good 4 hours of every day with the pump attached, but I’ve somehow mastered the art of typing, feeding, burping and chasing Tru around the house while expressing milk. It’s all a matter of multi-tasking. [...] [...] Not good for my already frazzled nerves. So I’ve gone the route of expressing, which is the next best thing I suppose.

Just yesterday, I was spending time with Tru and suddenly it hits me, so I start crying uncontrollably. I’ve been feeling awful about not being able to spend time with him the past 4 days while I was in the hospital and all I could do was hold him and cry for a good 10 minutes.

You can really use some support from family and friends. I was fortunate to be able to use my husband as a punching bag (literally at times). My Mom's incessant nagging during confinement was annoying, but she did take care of meals and laundry, so I could focus on the baby. And we had to supplement with formula in the beginning, but my milk is flowing freely now even if only from one side. At eight months, Narelle drinks my milk exclusively and is a hefty 10kg.
