    Exclusively pumping 3 weeks pp.

    @zoznoz Switching from EP to EFF saved my life and allowed me to be a sane, present, and loving mother to my baby. It was the most important parenting decision I’ve made. The guilt faded very fast once I saw how much better life was for baby, me, and my husband.
