im so depressed amd stressed out about this breastfeeding thing. I am worried he isn't getting enough from me to eat. I honestly selfishly dont want to breast feed anymore. most of the time it takes over an hour to feed him via breastfeeding and im just wore out. the only reasons im still trying is because I know its what's best for him and bc my fiance would be mad if I quit bc he wants him breastfeed. I feel so bad and guilty bc I want to quit and now I feel like I havent been putting enough effort into breastfeeding as I should bc of that. im still breastfeeding but I also offer him a bottle of formula after each feed. idk what to do, but its stressing me out real bad.

girl I have only formula from the day my daughter was born and she is better in weight her health is perfection and she's smarter in my opinion breast is not always what's best. and your fiance get mad about something that happens between both you and your son like quitting then that's wrong it's your body only you know what's best for you and your child. but honestly breast is not best. do what feels right for you and your son not what someone else wants u to do @simpsonv54

no he didn't really ever get fussy bc I wake him up to eat before he can get fussy. majority of the time he will drink the formula to after breast feeding though

@simpsonv54, Get a pump (insurance pays for these now) and don't give up :) You can do this, he is more than likely getting enough. Is he still fussing and acting hungry when you finish?

He is only 8 days. I just feel so bad.. I think its probably hormones mixed with sleep deprivation. it makes me even more upset bc I feel like im not enjoying this time with him bc im so tired and stressed about getting the breastfeeding to work for us. im trying to push through. I just feel like an awful mother..

Push through it momma. It gets easier! Maybe try pumping instead though. It is very time consuming but I just try to enjoy my time with him because honestly he won't be like this for that long 😀

girl, don't beat yourself up. the ONLY thing that matters is that he is getting fed- not how he is getting fed. If you need to switch to formula, then do it. Putting yourself through so much stress isn't good for you or baby. Millions of babies are formula fed and are perfectly healthy. A happy and healthy mom and baby is what's most important. Your preggie friends are here for you!
