shite i envy my friend at work who was breastfeeding. she got like 4, 45 minute breaks each day and there wasn't a damn thing anyone could say about it
my biggest worry right now is trying not to use a pacifier even though its like a instant fix for her fussiness because im scared its gonna mess up her latching (as i say this shes sucking on a soothie in the rock n play....)

I only made three months with my first. Mostly because I didn't know enough about breastfeeding and didn't get in a good feed/pump rhythm.
I made a whole year with my son, and that was with pumping at work, which is a HUGE (I do mean HUGE!!!), pain in the arse. If I would have been able to stay home, I probably would have let him breastfeed longer.

Get her a rounded nipple pacifier if you are worried about that. It's shaped more like a woman's nipple. I used these with both kids and never had an issue, though everyone is different.

I was trying to hold off on the pacifier as well but gave in when she was about 5 days old. She started sucking on her hands and it seemed to soothe her so we just gave her one. Hasn't caused any confusion.
We also just started her on a bottle and it hasn't caused any problems yet except she gulps in down in a fourth of the time it takes her to breastfeed lol.
