Sarah,
Hi. Welcome to the boards. I'm fairly new here but it's great to have a place to find like-minded mamas.

Some of your questions might be better answered/discovered on the breastfeeding and parenting issues forums. I think the moderators can help with this if your post needs to be moved to be better seen.

First of all, good for you to keep pumping and still giving your baby your precious breastmilk. You are an awesome mama for doing this!
Have you been seeing a lactation specialist? If not, can you find one who can help you with the nipple confusion issues? Also, try La Leche League - they are just about everywhere and can be found on www.lalecheleague.org/ Hopefully you'll be able to find a group close to you.
Also, there is a website for Attachment Parenting International which has links to local groups. It should at least give you a place to start. www.attachmentparenting.org/
Also, maybe there are other MDC mamas in your area who meet up in person and are open to new people.
Congrats on your new baby. I hope this helps you a little bit.
Hugs!
