I appreciate Lindsey so much and feel like she's why I have had such success with pumping and breastfeeding at almost 3 weeks postpartum.
Lindsey was my night shift RN the last night I was in the hospital after my C-section. I was struggling with breastfeeding my baby and she took the time to help my husband and me out. I was very emotional and I feel like she gave me all the support I needed and helped me and my husband laugh so much. She made me a bra out of mesh panties that worked so well when pumping. She rounded on us frequently and was always there within a few minutes if I called her. I had never thought about starting to pump so early, but she supported me in that decision and got the units to pump for me to use. She also looked at the pump that I brought with me, and we realized that it was almost the same model so she could help me start using that pump too. She still worked with us to help the baby latch if we decided we wanted to try again during the night. She also helped beyond any RN that I have ever seen. I appreciate her so much and feel like she's why I have had such success with pumping and breastfeeding at almost 3 weeks postpartum. Thank you so much! You made such a difference in my postpartum journey.
