Wow...another month is gone already!? 

Let's do a November Roll Call!  Please tell us your name, your LO's name and how long you have been EP'ing.  Feel free to share with us anything else you want to add - maybe a special event this month, your next big milestone etc.

Happy November!  Stay safe and above all healthy!! :o)

Hi!

I am Lynne, new mom to 7-week-old Sam. I have been EPing since we gave up on BFing 5 weeks ago. I pump 5x/day for about 30 oz, a few more than DS eats. I have learned so much by reading this board. I'm happy to have found it!

Hi everyone!  My name is Steph and I am mommy to 8.5 week old Kateyn whom I've been EPing for since week 5.  I also have a 2 1/2 year old boy who I EP'd for for 8 months and fed frozen until one year.  I didn't think I would do this a second time around but after being completely stressed out (again) by trying to breastfeed I am much happier and comfortable EPing...and should've started sooner!  At least I don't have to buy a freezer this time!

Hi everyone- my name is Heidi and I am EPing my LO Hope who is a little over 3 months old. She was in the NICU for a week and then refused to breastfeed at 2 weeks old so I have been EPing since she was born. I am at 4 hour intervals now, making 5 1/2-8 oz each time I pump. I have had some engorgement issues since going to 6x per day, but hopefully they will be taken care of soon. I am VERY proud to have hit the 3 month mark and we have 1324 oz frozen (I say WE because my DH is my milk manager and helps me SO much). My birthday is this Tuesday (Nov 3rd) and I am SO happy to be spending my first birthday as a mommy. Last year was my 35th birthday and was very difficult for me since I wasn't pregnant yet and DH and I were undergoing fertility testing. This year is SO much better! Anyway, I am so happy to have found this board to have the help and support of all of you. We all know what hard work EPing is, and know we are doing what is best for our LO's. So THANKS ladies!!!
