Exclusive pumping

Hi mommies How do you feel about doing exclusive pumping? I have flat nipples and it’s very hard and painful for baby to latch on so my LC recommended exclusive pumping. But baby seems to want to latch on me everytime.. it’s painful and I don’t enjoy it but I feel bad about not latching for my baby.. any mommies feel the same way? :(

I have inverted nipple, every time I tried to let my baby latch, she gets frustrated so I started pumping. I used to feel bad for not trying harder but then I realised that’s it’s more important your baby is well fed. So baby happy mama happy. 😊
