I need help!!my husband insists that I breast feed...not taking into consideration that the baby…

It's completely up to you. You can always do your research on your options, try it out and see what happens. It can be uncomfortable for the first few weeks, but after that it becomes second nature, your milk regulates and you usually don't leak as much. It's your body and your choice. ❤️

its not selfish of you Aren't comfortable with it. its all personal choice.

I'm not breast feeding because it's awkward to me. I'd much rather formula feed because it seems more comfortable to me.

Breastfeeding isn't for everyone. I'd say at least give it a try to see if you like it/if it works. It didn't work for me so I pump and supplement with formula. Fed is best!

you can do half formula half breast milk.

thanks @alyen2 ,@chocohunnybees ,@kmally @missyowl92

@alyen2, I'm ok w pumping and using formula I didn't know I could do that...

do you leak when pumping...??feel drained??

you do for a few weeks, but it ends quickly

Yeah my son mostly eats formula but I pump a few times a day so he can have some of that too. I mix formula and breastmilk in the same bottle and he loves it. I rarely leak! It's so much less stressful than strictly pumping. Formula is a lifesaver!

Do what works for you. Speak to your dr. You may leak. Everyone is different. It is exhausting and draining. You could pump and bottle feed your breast milk.

@chocohunnybees, @her_plus_her_and_me @alyen2 thanks I feel better now I just dont want him to be constipated..or get sick...
