Are you breast feeding or formula feeding?

Question

i tried breast feeding he couldn't  latch on me so i pumped for a month and stopped i wish i could of stuck with breast,  i get so jealous when i see moms breast feeding 🤷🏻‍♀️🥺

Answer

I pumped exclusively with my first (didn’t latch either), but I combo breastfeed and pump/bottle feed my youngest.  I am actually kind of jealous of those of you who formula feed.  I really hate pumping and scheduling around my stupid boobs.  (Hugs). You are doing great momma.

Answer

First time mom... wanted to breastfeed sooo badly but after a month he just started crying and wanting to feed every half hour. After 2 excruciating days my husband talked me into getting formula when he found me crying while breastfeeding. We have been bottle feeding since then and once every night I’m able to breastfeed him because he is so sleepy he doesn’t fuss on the breast. It sucks but I did the best I could!

Answer

We had latching issues so I have been exclusively pumping for 6 months now.

Answer

I had wanted to formula feed, but felt pressured by nursers and some friends to Breast feed. so I figured I would at least try, because after all it is "best". 
I didn't even make it a day. legit felt like there was a black hole in the room and when my son started crying I would start falling into this abyss of guilt, depression, disperse, you name it. I had nursers try and help, and a specialist come in. 
but I realized this wasn't going to be best for him, because it wasn't best for my health. I wanted to bond and be happy feeding him, not depressed and anxious. 
so yo those who breastfeeding good job! and to those who formula feed good job, because being happy and loving your child while you feed them is what matters. 
don't let people push you to breast feed, if you don't want, and don't let people push you to formula feed if you dont want to!

Answer

Same thing happened to me he had a tongue tie a pretty bad one and they didn’t realize it at the hospital and I had such a hard time getting him to latch and actually get something so I pumped for almost a month but it was so stressful and time consuming I felt bad but happy at the same time because I at least got to give him some breast milk and some girls just can’t
