Failure :(
Baby is 3 weeks old. We had to supplement in the hospital with formula bc baby wasn’t getting enough breastmilk. Lost a pound from birth weight, continued to supplement the first week. I was pumping to see how much I was getting, made it to 2 1/2 weeks before we decided it was just not in our cards to breast feed. I was producing just enough in a day to give one bottle at dinner. People have said to me this is why your baby sleeps on a schedule bc I don’t feed on demand and don’t give him the breast. It hurts my feelings. My baby is thriving and I work hard on keeping my baby on a schedule and I would do the same if I was breast feeding. I feel like I’ve let my baby down not breast feeding and having that special bond with him.
