Could I pump breast milk and only bottle feed my baby the breast milk? My son has completely tore up my left nipple to where it has a bad sore that's bleeding. I don't want to breast feed anymore but can't afford formula and want him to have breast milk...

where do you buy nipple shields and are the expensive ? @h653 @jasalynnsmommy
your baby might have a bad latch my daughter does and I'm nipple was cracked I used a nipple shield and to heal my nipple I put my bm on it and let it air dry and coconut oil
When my milk came in my son wouldn't latch/ couldn't because my boobs were to hard. So we use a nipple shield. He's exclusively breastfed and my nipples never got sore. Nipple shields are great.
make sure he has a good latch. that could be why your sore right now. he may not be getting enough of the areola in his mouth
try using a nipple shield for your cracked nipple. the blood actually won't hurt baby. you can use nipple cream in between feeds to help with the healing process
You could but its gonna be a little bit harder to get your supply up because a pump cant stimulate your breast like baby can. Pump that side till it heals but when you nurse switch off boobs between feedings. Put nipple butter on and pump for a day. Dont give up mama I know it hurts like hell, everytime my son would latch Id clinch a blanket but eventually it wont hurt at all! My son is almost 8 months with 8 teeth and were still going lol theres gonna be obstacles but YOU can do this! (:
@mommy529, @neni0424 @savannamarie thanks ladies. I'm going to try it out!
have you apply for wic?! they give you some cans of formula! but yes you can pump and bottle feed, there also some lotion that's numbs the boob so it won't hurt when you breastfeed @carlyann00
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...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
