Pump and dump is an option, so that mom keeps lactating, but not foolproof. The baby needs to learn how to latch on and if they are given a bottle for 2 weeks will likely refuse to breastfeed (e.g. baby turns into a frustrated screaming terror while mom sobs). But the more important point is the emotional and hormonal impact of breastfeeding on the mom, and health benefits of breastfeeding for the baby. Breastfeeding is monumentally important for some mothers. Mom has every right to insist on breastfeeding even in the face of a test she knows to be a false positive. |
