I'm ready to give up breastfeeding and my son is only 5 days old. All he wants to do is cluster feed at night so I get no sleep. I'm a zombie during the day trying to take care of my 2 year old. All I do is cry. It wasn't this hard with my daughter. I don't want to give him formula but I also don't want to be like this. Ugh 😭😭😭😭

@esmeraldam, @shortizzie @meganc @junesmommy15 @mommyofmisters thanks everyone. I know it will get easier and the first month or so is the hardest. I'll get through it, it's just hard! And I don't have a pump yet but even if I did I would just rather nurse him myself because to me being attached to a pump is even worse, I hate pumping. Just have to take it one day at a time.

Do you ever pump and bottle feed? Might make it easier right now to do at night time and Breast feed during the day until he's on a better routine :)

If you get past a week remember it gets better. Remember it's for baby. It's definitely going to get easier and especially more convenient at night. Hang in there.

It gets easier until they get into a routine. I was zombie mode until my son was at least a month. It was a long exhausting but rewarding month. Now I just pump and bottle feed. And that started at 5 weeks

I felt like that too. So I would give a formula bottle every now and then to get a break. But now I straight formula feed
