any other moms go from breast feeding to supplementing? babys 2 1/2 days old, and my nipples are raw…

find a support group on fb for breast feeding.

I did with my daughter just a few days ago and she is doing great. I understand the feeling of being sore.

I do it my baby is 3 weeks been doing since one week she goes from bottle to Breast with no problem I do maybe 2 bottles a day n usually try to just do bottles when my nips are too sore n if we have to go out in public don't feel bad you will be giving Breast milk still right just pumping it or are you going to use a formula for breastfeeding to supplement with ?

I still want to breastfeed, just want to do a couple bottles a day

get some Nipple cream. it works miracles

thanks guys, I'll have my mom pick me up some tomorrow

this one worked for me. good luck. don't give up

You could also try a nipple shield-I did that for my daughter bc she wouldn't latch and it hurt so bad. Just a thin plastic piece you put over your nipple that makes it more like a bottle shape. That saved my nipples too. Never even need cream with it
