[blparent] question of feeding a newborn

[Michael Baldwin]

Well, with both our kids, after my wife went back to work and was pumping
during the day 3-4 times a day, her supply dropped off.  On vacations or
longer times off work, her supply built back up, and she was not pumping
any, just nursing.  She uses a Madela pump in styel.  Read forums and other
places on the net, and you will find other women that have this issue.

Michael,
I don't totally agree with you on the breast pumping. I have both and older
and younger sister. My older sister has a daughter that's going to be a year
old at the end of April And I believe she still does pump breast milk
because I don't believe my niece is quite eating all solid foods yet. Keep
in mind she does also work.  My younger sister I believe is still breast
feeding I'm not totally sure if she is still pumping or not since she's not
working a normal job so to speak. Does your wife work outside the home? Also
if she trying to breast feed then it's not working she might want to
consider pumping.
