Has anyone thought about how they are feeding their baby?

Question

I am completely stuck between breast vs formula. I see the advantages and disadvantages of both but am so undecided.

Answer

This will be my 3rd baby to breastfeed! I have LOVED nursing my babies. There is nothing better than looking down at their sweet face while nursing. I hope every woman gets to experience the complete joy it brings. The first two weeks are the hardest! And it’s second nature by the end of the first month! If it’s something you want to do, don’t give up! Educate yourself and have confidence in your ability to provide for your baby!

Answer

This is my 4th baby. I breastfed the others until 1.5yrs and will do the same this time unless I cant.

Answer

I’m weaning my 11 month old now and am so excited to nurse this next baby, too. My breastfeeding journey wasn’t fun or easy in the beginning and I got mastitis twice, too many clogged ducts to count, and an abscess under my nipple that landed me in the hospital, but the bonding experience it brought me and my son was worth every second of pain. 
Though, if I don’t produce milk or next baby doesn’t latch well or has tummy problems with my milk, I’ll happily and proudly formula feed.

Answer

I mix fed my first, did have a choice I couldn’t produce enough for her. 
This one I’m hoping to breast feed only for at least 6months, but if I can’t that’s okay too

Answer

I plan to breastfeed but with my first I never produced anything it was heartbreaking but formula is still very good. And fed is best so I didn’t beat myself up too much about it. I’m hoping this one I’m able to produce

Answer

Really hoping I can breast feed this time! My first I had preeclampsia & a traumatic birth and was in and out the hospital the first couple weeks after giving birth and totally ruined my supply.

Answer

There is no right answer. You have to do what works for you!  We did both.

Answer

I'm just going to exclusively pump,, baby gets breast milk and you won't have to introduce or  have the hard time of getting them off the breast

Answer

I breastfed my first with no major issues, all the way to 14 months. I will do it again! But if I'm struggling or it's just too much, I have no shame switching to formula.

Answer

I breastfed both of my kids a year each. Mostly because it is free and convenient. I’m not going to lie I did NOT love it. It weirded me out. The feeling. The whipping out your boobs everywhere. My babies learned so fast and it was super easy for me and some part of me feels like i was doing what was best for my kids but sometimes I hope it won’t go as well with #3
