Stacia Fleegal desperately wanted to breastfeed her son, Jackson, but a very premature delivery meant she had to start by expressing her milk instead.

She was hooked up to a breast pump before she had even seen him for the first time, and carried on pumping when he came home from hospital two months later.

She did manage to breastfeed naturally, but the experience was nothing like the one she'd hoped for and, as she tells Manuela Saragosa, exhaustion soon overcome her.
