Taking the plunge!!!
Okay, so we decided to go for it! I am going to breastfeed, well try at least. It will be intensive therapy but I think it will be worth it if I can lactate. I have to induce lactation since I am not currently carrying a baby. Hopefully, it will work. I am going to try first with just pumping, being open-minded and positive about it. Then, if that doesn't seem to work I may try the herbal remedies and if that doesn't work I may talk to my OB about the medicinal option. We'll see. I will need all the support I can get and so please oh please help me stay positive about this. I want it to be a wonderful experience and not too stressful. So, I hope it works. Step 1 will be underway hopefully Friday.

That's great Jenn! I considered this to, but never did make the plunge. I think this is a wonderful way for you to bond with little M, even if you end up havig to supplement with bottles to.
Good luck, Jenn! Let me know how it works - I am starting the herbs today...link of early since we are only 3 months into the wait, but oh well.
Did you buy or rent a pump?
