Breastfeeding has been such an amazing journey and has really made me feel connected with my daughter, but I think maybe it is time to start on formula, which is honestly heartbreaking to me. When my parents offer to feed her formula I get this terrible feeling inside. Jealousy? I didn't think it would be this hard to stop breastfeeding, but when I feed her I know that no one else in the world has had this experience with her. It's our own little thing that we get to do together. But I've found pumping is so time consuming and I have to go to basic training soon and I don't know. This decision is so hard for me!

Thank you for the advice! @hayleymarie love the idea of the pump bra! @babygirl10-11 I know, it the hardest decision! Feeling overwhelmed is an understatement. @overthemoon @mommyofaking my parents are just trying to get me to transition ink formula feeding so that they can feed her. It's so frustrating because I'll leave her with them for a few hours and leave breastmilk in a bottle and they'll use formula because "it's easier to heat (using warm water) " @coraanne
Breast feeding is the best you really do feel a bond I love it💓
for a pump bra I saw a diy one it was just a sports bra with cut out holes to fit the pump
Maybe you can keep breastfeeding until a week before you have to leave? How come your parents are asking to feed her formula if your exclusively breastfeeding?
If you get a good pump bra you can pump and still be able to do stuff I only pump for 20ish mins every 2-4 hours I'm exclusively pumping and producing MORE than what my daughter eats in a day ...the decision is yours but if you don't want her on formula hands free pumping is an option
Breastfeeding.
I am a HUGE breastfeeding advocate. No, I will NOT shame you if you decide to formula feed, and will not tolerate anyone else doing so on my post. Everyone has their own reasons on why they feed their child the way they see fit.

Should I Try Breastfeeding Again? Seeking Moms' Experiences
Im still debating on if i should breastfeeding or formula feeding.. I tried breastfeeding with both of my kids but they didnt want too.. Of course i know the pro an cons of formula feed.. I know that fed babies are happy babies😊 (regarding breastfed and formula fed) just want to know cause i might try breastfeeding and see! Just want to know other moms personal experience with breastfeeding
I wanted to do one of these before our breastfeeding journey ended. I have a feeling it’s soon 😔 since her dr has us giving her formula to give her more calories, I’m finding it difficult to give her breastmilk as well. She gets full off of me alone so she doesn’t want the formula if I breastfeed her first. And if I give her formula first, she doesn’t want the breastmilk. I’ve been alternating feedings but that’s just caused my supply to drop. She’s getting chunky, though. That’s all I care abou...
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Wow I'd be so upset. I probably wouldn't even have formula around if they can't respect your wishes
