Breast feeding

My baby won't latch. He has a very lazy latch even on bottles and usually ends up choking multiple times while eating because he likes to just let the milk drip into his mouth. I pump to be able to feed him. I pump every 2-3 hours and honestly it's a lot and it's hard. He was eating 6oz at a time which is how much I was producing each pumping so I couldn't build up any kind of back up. My boobs hurt, my nipples are sore, I'm exhausted. I can't sleep when he sleeps because I have to pump before I can go to sleep and by the time I'm done I get less than an hour before he's up. Honestly, if he would latch it would be so much easier. I'm not giving up on him latching. We try every feeding before the bottle but he gets frustrated very quickly. Regardless I'm saying all of this to say, I know breast feeding is very beneficial but I think sleep and a healthy mental function is more important to take care of a tiny human. I chose sleep last night. I only pumped twice and it was amazing. I know it'll mess up my supply overnight and eventually I may have to supplement formula, but today was the first day that I can honestly say I was relaxed and not completely exhausted. He even was less fussy today. You're important too mommy's. Your sleep is important. Supplementing formula is not the end of the world. Your baby deserves a healthy, happy mommy.
