Awesome EP Moms!!

[chegmom]

I would just like to say that those of you that EP for extended periods are totally awesome mamas! I am barely 24 hours into a 2+ day trip without baby (3 months), and this pumping all the time is for the birds! I work FT and am used to pumping a lot, but having baby nurse at night makes it much easier.

So, kudos to those of you that EP for your babies! Keep up the good work.

Isn't that the truth. I eped with my first for the most part because he had a bad latch and I forgot how hard it was. My second is a bfing champ. I was gone one complete day/night and couldn't keep up with my supply with the pump because baby is so much more efficient. Have a good trip!

Thanks for this! As a current EP'er who wanted more than anything to BF, it's nice to hear. It's definitely tough sometimes!
