"I breastfed my first for 21 months, staying home with him until six months and working 12 hr days three days a week after that. My husband brought him up to visit and nurse on work days. With my second I was determined to make it to 2 years, but I was working at a different hospital and went back to work at 7 weeks after delivery working 12 hour days sometimes four days a week. There was a pumping room but only big enough for one mom at a time and it was often occupied and I often couldn't take breaks to pump when I needed to so my supply dropped. I latched her as much as possible at home and on days off but by three months we were supplementing and by seven she didn't want the breast at all and by then I couldn't get more than an ounce total when pumping. I had no support other than my husband. I gave up."
