Sezza, it's great that you are preparing in advance. As well as a good pump, you will probably need some additional help, as it can be more difficult to establish bfing in that situation. I recommend that you join the ABA before the baby is born. The 24 hour help line on 1800 mum2mum will be able to give you some great advice on establishing bfing with a hospitalised baby. You don't have to be a member to call, but as a member you are also entitled to a 50% discount on pump hire, and you will get as much ongoing information and support from a breastfeeding counsellor as you need, included. It's certainly worth considering.

I wish you all the best hun.
