    Breast feeding is a huge amount of work, asking a person to do that and have a job is a big deal. Pumping breastmilk is incompatible with lots of jobs. If they have already stopped breastfeeding they may not be able to restart.

    It would be great to live in a society where breastfeeding was normal and easy. Society is crazy and women shouldn’t be criticised for trying to exist within it.

        Hey son, just don’t eat for 4 hours…

        It’s not that simple, like at all. There are loads of other things to take into account too.

          It actually is that simple. The baby will either adjust or you’ll have pumped in preparation for those four hours.

            Found the man who have never taken care of one of his baby kids.

            “The baby will adapt” man that’s so out of touch.
