Will you be breastfeeding?

Question

I’m curious how many of you plan to breastfeed. I was unsuccessful with my first for health reasons, but I hope to breastfeed my next baby. This time I will try not to feel guilty if Im unsuccessful again, though, because my first did great on formula so I have no regrets. I’m in the US.

Answer

I plan to! This is baby 4 so I've done my fair share of breastfeeding lol I nursed my first for 18 months my 2nd for 2.5 year and third for a little over 2 years

Answer

Fed is best! I plan to breastfeed again but if it doesn’t work out for us then that’s ok too. I breastfed my first for 18 months until he weaned himself.

Answer

I planned to, but baby had an underdeveloped palate and couldn’t latch, so I pumped.

Answer

I breastfed my daughter until she was 14 months, but she refused a bottle of pumped milk if I was in the same house as her. I never once fed her a bottle because of it. I plan to do the same as before. Dedicate the first month or two to only nursing, then offer bottles of pumped milk if Im away. Hoping this baby may even take the pumped milk from me if I need it. But overall, I wouldnt change it. It was overwhelming sometimes and frustrating, but Im so glad I was able to breastfeed the first year. I know a lot of moms dont get to.

Answer

I plan to if I’m able! I’m going into this totally understanding that it doesn’t work for everybody.

Answer

I wasn't able to breastfeed my first because she couldn't latch properly and postpartum depression messed me up so I gave to trying after 6 weeks. I fully breastfed my second until 14 months and I liked it but she nursed every 2 hours until we weaned so with this baby I want to try and nurse him half the time and pump and do bottles the other half.
