I am in hospital I have to have a stent placed in my brain- the medication they are putting me on says I cannot breastfeed anymore ( or for the six months I'll be on the medication) . My baby is hysterical and hubby trying to suddenly get her on a bottle . I desperately want to resume breastfeeding in 6 months time if atall possible- if I pump every day do any of you think it will work ? I'm going to use a sealed nipple shield to try and comfort her once I'm home . I'm so so sad and also very scared of this operation. I don't want to sound sorry for myself but I'm feeling increadibly weepy and heartbroken- terrified- any ideas regarding keeping up my supply ? X Thankyou for reading this garbled panic xxxx
