I've made the decision to switch to exclusively pumping and bottle feeding. After 2 weeks of struggling with breastfeeding where both Drew and I have gotten frustrated, it was time to try something new. It also didn't help that he was up for 2.5 hours this morning where he fed on and off for that whole period of time.
Mike was able to feed him not too long ago and he seemed much happier by the end opposed to when I try to breastfeed him. I'm glad that I have a dual electric pump that works very well. It'll also cut down on the time it takes to feed him. 15 minutes to pump plus 15-20 minutes to bottle feed him opposed to 30-40 minutes per side.
