I was too tired to post anything tonight, but this whole idea of forced
pumping really ticks me off.
They REQUIRE their preemie moms to pump? That's outrageous. As I've posted
previously, I've had to put up with SO much from militant breastfeeders, and
I think if one of them had tried to make me pump, I would have been forced to
insert the pump into one of their bodily orifices (if you know what I mean!!)
I was far, far too worried about my child's survival to think about whether
she was getting her calories from me or from a bottle!!!
