My son was born at 35 weeks. Fortunately, our biggest issue was low blood sugar. Bryson was also unable to latch to the breast and with the critically low blood sugars, he was started on IV fluids. When he gained some strength back we chose to use donated breast milk and he ate like a champ. We were so thankful to have this option for him. We continued to attempt breastfeeding, however had no luck. Thus my pumping journey began. From that point on I decided to exclusively pump. I have been so thankful to be able to pump enough for Bryson, as well as build a freezer stash. We were so thankful for the mom who donated her milk, that I wanted to do the same in return. I have had such a positive pumping experience that I wanted to share the love.
