About this title

Synopsis

An alternative to formula exists! When breastfeeding doesn't work out, situations such as a premature or an ill baby delay breastfeeding, or you simply choose not to breastfeed, exclusively pumping breast milk-using a breast pump to initiate and maintain lactation-is a viable option and can be done on a long-term basis. Exclusively Pumping Breast Milk offers women the knowledge, advice, and support necessary to initiate and maintain their milk supply with a breast pump. This second edition of the first-and most comprehensive-book about exclusively pumping offers well-researched information, and plenty of tips and tricks, to help you on your journey. In addition to the basics of exclusively pumping, the second edition includes information on lactation and breast milk composition, increasing and decreasing supply, overcoming common challenges, pumps and accessories, storing expressed milk, weaning, and also a chapter specifically for mothers with babies in the NICU. Exclusively pumping breast milk is possible and this book will provide the accurate information and support necessary for you to provide your baby with "expressed love".

From the Back Cover

"The reasons for exclusively pumping are as varied as the women who exclusively pump. One thing all women have in common, though, is their desire to provide breast milk for their babies."

There are alternatives to formula feeding! Whether pumping for a preemie, experiencing breastfeeding difficulties, or choosing not to breastfeed, formula is not your only option. When direct breastfeeding is not possible, or breastfeeding is not desired, long-term exclusive pumping is a viable choice. Exclusively Pumping Breast Milk gives you the knowledge, advice, and support necessary to initiate and maintain your milk supply with a breast pump.
