EBF: If you know you are going to miss a feeding...
do you always pump?
I have a baby shower today and I don't know if I should bring my pump.

Re: EBF: If you know you are going to miss a feeding...
it depends how old your baby is... If I miss a feeding now (4 months old) it doesn't bother me...

For me I would have to pump, otherwise I become engorged.

I always pumped. Both because I wanted to keep my supply stable, AND I'd become engorged otherwise.

How old is your baby? In the beginning, don't miss a feed, keep your milk supply going.

Do you have a hand pump? I would bring it. You will probably have a better time not worrying about it.

Re: EBF: If you know you are going to miss a feeding...
I would only bring the pump for your own comfort. If your supply is well established, your milk doesn't know you are going to miss a feeding! It will become VERY painful!
