@victoriaaa1256_: and it seems that no matter what I choose to do it won’t be the right choice 🫠 there’s so much information on feeding in general as a first time mom that it is overwhelming #breastfeeding #formulafeeding #firsttimemom #exclusivelypumping #breastpump

My first 2 I couldn’t breastfeed as long as I wanted because it hurt and I didn’t know that tongue and lip ties can cause latch issues. So I formula fed them. They grew up happy and healthy. I just had my third baby in June and I have exclusively breastfed. I did have to get his lip and tongue tie done because I was having issues again with his latch. I didn’t introduce a bottle until just a few weeks ago and I only did it twice a week at first and worked up to trying a bottle at least once a day. Only reason why you want to start trying is because you don’t wanna wait till it’s time you need to use a bottle and then they are struggling. My baby having a bottle here and there has not messed up him breastfeeding. I also stopped tracking how much he was eating once he hit his birth weight. All of that was too stressful and honestly, the way I was able to tell he was eating

I exclusively breastfed until 4 months, then I breastfed and pumped at work and he got bottles when I was working. If you can breastfeed, you know they are getting enough as long as they are gaining weight and if they are getting fussy at the boob their could be something. I had a heavy flow so sometimes he would get upset but that wasn’t to bad. I introduced him to bottles at 6 weeks so dad could feed once in a while. We would do at least a bottle a week to keep up on it ❤️it’s the same thing, not as scary once it starts happening. You’ll feel what’s right for you

My baby was born at 36 weeks and had a weak latch so we had to do bottles at first and since my body wasn’t quite ready we had to implement a tiny bit of formula in the early days, it killed me inside at first but a fed baby is truly best!! But since she had a weak latch i wasn’t able to breastfeed until she was about 2 months old, I fought for my supply and breastfeeding journey so hard but it’s all sooo worth it! And she went from never wanting breast to now not wanting bottles sometimes 😂 but the lansinoh xx slow flow nipples and bottles SAVED my breastfeeding journey. Praying for all the good things for you 💛

hi momma of 2 for my first I had to exclusively pump because he was born with a cleft lip and palate, I tried it for the 1st month of his life, and then had to switch to formula and he's one now , and he is striving, he is very tall and he's a big boy. I now have my second. Yes, I they are Irish twins lol and I exclusively breastfeed him, and I also pump to boost my supply.Honestly, you'll find your right flow.And sometimes life will hand it to you. I would say, get a can of formula and just save it, just in case you're at your wits end one night and you absolutely need to feed the baby, it'll honestly save you so much time and heartache, and you can always try again in the morning to breastfeed, or you can switch to formula. If that's what feels right. There's no wrong answer good luck momma

Every baby is different! My baby kept falling asleep while breastfeeding and then would wake up hungry half an hour later. I couldn’t sustain that so I ended up pumping for almost 9 months and then did formula. A fed baby is all that matters! It’ll work out 🫶

Girl if you have any questions please message me! I exclusively breastfed both babies until I went to work and then I started pumping! Breastfeeding is truly the most amazing thing. Very challenging but once you get it down it’s the best bond ever.

I am a formula fed baby and I don’t have any health issues whatsoever and now a days some people combo feed, but all babies are different so do whatever is best for you and your baby whether that is breast feeding or formula

Don’t over think it girl. With my first I breastfed and also supplemented with formula. FED IS BEST. I won’t lie, breastfeeding hurts so bad especially the first few days. Nipple cream is your best friend. I’m giving birth in 35 hours with my second boy at 37 weeks. I’ve been collecting colostrum the past few days with a hand pump and after 8 years of not having a baby I had kinda forgot how rough it is 😅 do not let anyone make you feel any less of a mom if you decide to do formula or any other feeding plan that isn’t theirs. You know best for your baby and yourself! 💙

Dont be scared! I was so nervous after having two “failed” breastfeeding journeys with my daughters, but with my son I was able to do it until I decided I was done. Some things to remember, 1. Feed on demand rather than focus on a schedule 2. You can store your pump/parts in the fridge during the day/night to keep it sterile so you dont have to wash it a 100x 3. Feeding from the breast or milk from a bottle is both breastfeeding, do not let anyone tell you that exclusively pumping or bottle feeding is any less 4. Babies are supposed to lose weight after they are born, does NOT mean youre doing a bad job or have a low supply 5. Do NOT go by what you pump as what you think your supply is, those two do not correlate 6. Fed is best. Milk, formula, breast, bottles whatever you choose is YOUR choice and yours only 7. You can always re-latch or bring your supply back if you decided to stop (can be difficult but not impossible). I have so many others so feel free to reach out but you’re doing great already 🤍

i heard that if you put the pump in the fridge after using them you don’t have to wash them every single time just once at night. i’m not sure how true that is but just something to look into<3

Honestly I’m breast feeding and I’m just following my baby. He lets me know when he’s hungry. He’s eats at most every 3.5 hours during the day (he’s almost 4 months old) but if he seems hungry before that I will feed him. I follow the eat play sleep cycle all day long. Baby will tell you if they need more to eat

I didn't have a feeding plan either I wanted to try breastfeeding for some people it's hard to breastfeed for me at first yes it was so freaking hard but I didn't exclusively breastfeed I used a nipple shield the first three months and I think that was because of the pacifier one thing I don't recommend don't use a paci for the the first few weeks but if you plan on going back to work use formula it will be easier on you and your mental health because pumping is so hard and wearable pumps aren't reliable sometimes depending on your body I did use formula but it was premade and formula at night will make them sleep longer is a lie newborns need to eat constantly you sometimes have to wake them up to eat my son didn't sleep through the night until I stopped breastfeeding at 18 months just go with the flow do what you think is best for you and your baby people will be in your ear pushing formula and if you want to breastfeed advocate for yourself but the latch 100% matters and I'm 20 currently with my 2 year old you will learn your baby also with breastfeeding your baby will lose weight thing some people don't mention also your baby on breast milk they will stay at 4oz for so long maybe longer than 1 year

As someone who does nothing but formula feeds neither one of my children have health issues just because I feed them formula. Some women’s milk just doesn’t come in ( I being one of them ) just cause someone formula feeds it doesn’t make them selfish either . You do what’s best for you and your kids . You can’t listen to everyone else
