#asktheexperts Is exclusive pumping practical? I tried making my baby latch for 3 months but failed at all attempts, his weight was also impacted. Hence I have started just now exclusive pumping when my child is 3 months old and plan to continue atleast for his 6 months. But i feed so tired already. Are there any tips to make life easier with exclusive pumping? I pump every 2 hours , one breast at a time and able to pump 90-110 ml .
