I put "other" because I could fit into a few categories. I EBF for the first 6 months and it was relatively easy. The only difficult part was being needed so much while I was hormonal and recovering from the birth. I wanted to pump so I could let someone else take over the feedings but luckily her pedi talked me out of it. No physical problems with BF'ing once I got the latch right the first day.

At 6 months I started working more hours and had to rely more on pumping and it caused my supply to drop. I had some BM frozen but once that was through I had to supplement. However I was able to continue BF'ing with supplementing until shortly before a year.
