Breastfeeding to Formula Transition

Hey Mom’s.

My little one is 7 days old today. I hate to say that I just really don’t like breastfeeding. & I’m upset to the point where I’m in tears just thinking about continuing to breastfeed long term. There are a variety of reasons as to why I’m just over it.

I think i waited soo long to get my body back after 9 months of carrying my little man and it just feels like I still have zero control over it now that I’m breastfeeding every 2-3hours. Baby also doesn’t have the best latch so we use a shield to feed and are only using one breast predominantly. I’m just not interested at all in continuing breast feeding except for maybe once a day.

I’d like to formula feed and mix with pumped breast milk. Does anyone else do this method? I’d love any opinions, advice, suggestions
