Formula feeding?

Question

My little baby girl is here! We are currently breastfeeding but supplementing as well... With my first I only made it 3 weeks.. my milk never came in due to PCOS. 
Here were are now and I am just ready to go full on formula feeding. Anyone out there strictly formula feeding off the bat or in the same situation. Just feeling guilty. Please no rude comments... just a mama looking for support!

Answer

I just had a terrible time with my first.  He wouldn't latch so I pumped and never got much. I got horrible mastitis.  I pumped every three hours and by the time I cleaned everything, changed baby I probably got 1hr of sleep.   This time I'm stocking up on formula.   If this one doesn't latch I'm done.

Answer

I only lasted a few weeks with my first—milk never really came in due to PCOS as well! We tried everything…feeding, pumping, syringes, SNS tubes, supplements, meeting regularly with a lactation consultant…but he was loosing weight (and I was losing my mind).  It was honestly so miserable. 
So this time around, I decided I’m not fooling with it all again. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Maybe it would be a better experience, maybe not, but I don’t want to put myself through the physical and mental torture that happened last time. And I’m excited about my choice. I’m excited I get to enjoy my newborn without the stress of trying to figure out breastfeeding with PCOS. I’ll get to actually hold my baby and enjoy her, not hold her to feed and then pass her off so I can pump or clean the insane amount of gear we were having to use. I’m excited to start off knowing how we will feed her, and knowing that it will work. No stress about weigh ins or milk supply…just focusing on soaking up my baby, watching my toddler become a big brother, and adjusting to becoming a family of 4. 
I say all of that to say—NO SHAME MOMMA. Breastfeeding with PCOS can be a beast and if you decide to go exclusively formula, just know that you are an incredible momma and FED IS BEST.

Answer

I haven’t produced not even a drop with my first 3 so I’m guessing won’t either this one. So strictly formula from the start.

Answer

Never produced with my first and had to go to formula in order for her to go home from the NICU (we were using donor milk) this baby we went straight to formula. No issues and no regrets! Do whatever is best for both of you, including your mental health!
