Any mommies pump exclusively & formula feed. I want to give baby breastmilk but i dont want him to latch on. Any suggestions, tips, advice. Anything would be helpful.
I pumped and supplemented with formula. I liked pumping better than him latching because I knew how much he was eating. I mixed breastmilk and formula in the same bottle. Usually half and half since the breastmilk helped him poop. They only say not to mix so that breastmilk doesn't get wasted but that wasn't a concern of ours. If you have any questions feel free to message me anytime.
ok I was trying to word it and sometimes it comes out all goofy lol. also they tell you to never mix breast milk and formula
If your going to pump and formula (which I did) I would feed your baby your breast milk first, then formula. It was different for me cuz I had twins but what I did was pump (split it evenly between the 2) if they got 1 oz each I'd give them that then depending on how much they were eating I'd give them 1 or 2 oz of formula. if that makes sense.
Ive thought about it and i dont want him to become dependent of the boob. Between working fulltime and going to school id rather just pump and save. And he can be bottle fed breastmilk when im not around
I think you should try breast feeding. I have done a lot of reading on it and the benifits are amaxing.
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...

Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
I used half and half. sounds weird but I didn't even need a pump. 😂 just a bottle and my boob. my son got half and half for about a month before I stopped.
