Breast feeding is a huge amount of work, asking a person to do that and have a job is a big deal. Pumping breastmilk is incompatible with lots of jobs. If they have already stopped breastfeeding they may not be able to restart.

It would be great to live in a society where breastfeeding was normal and easy. Society is crazy and women shouldn't be criticised for trying to exist within it.

We're school bus drivers lol. We work four hours a day.

Hey son, just don't eat for 4 hours...

It's not that simple, like at all. There are loads of other things to take into account too.

[-] Sanctus@anarchist.nexus -1 points 2 weeks ago

It actually is that simple. The baby will either adjust or you'll have pumped in preparation for those four hours.

Found the man who have never taken care of one of his baby kids.

"The baby will adapt" man that's so out of touch.

Literally all I do when I get home from work so you and everyone downvoting me can honestly go fuck themselves forvall I care. Shit pisses me off you'd say that

Dude good for you if it works, but seriously it is not that simple for many parents. Some kids eat more than you can "just pump", pumping itself has issues (excruciating pain through over simulation for example), some don't have enough etc etc etc.

You're adding in a lot that the comment I replied to did not mention. You can go drive a bus for four hours and your baby is not going to starve to death is literally all I was saying. Ya'll want some one size fits all bullshit answer for everything smh

Well that is why I said, good for you, because your kid is handling it.
