Did anyone start breastfeeding or pumping and feeding and decide to switch to formula? I'm on day 2 of formula feeding and feeling pretty guilty. My son couldn't really breastfeed (latch issues) so I pumped and fed, he was going through breast milk like it was water, eating 4 oz every hour to hour and a half; I couldn't keep up. it was extremely stressful, I was constantly pumping and not getting to spend time with him, the constant pumping caused me to bleed. He also was really gassy and threw up a lot. since starting him in reduced lactose formula he stays full longer and throws up less, and I get to spend more time with him; but I still feel super guilty. I wasn't breast fed, and no one has ever made me feel like I have to. so where does the guilt come from?

if you feel like formula is better for him than that's what you do :) don't feel like you have to breast feed him. you can show him other ways you love him by cuddles, playing, singing, rocking him. I felt guilty with my first baby I didn't even try to breast feed but I loved feeding her her bottle. just don't feel bad!
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...
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?

My husband and I aren’t exactly strangers when it comes to relationship challenges 💞. We have been together for 14 years and married for eight, so we’ve definitely gone through some growing pains as we navigated a long-distance relationship in college and our first year living together as a married 👫 couple.
But nothing has challenged our relationship quite like our first year as 👪 parents .
Before you have your first child, you have these grand ideas of what it will be like. There’s more slee...
@itsamemario, you deleted your post before I could hit send but this is my comment: I don’t know if this answers your question but this is my answer.
My son is 7 and he knows race and color. Why? Because he himself comes from a family that is multi racial and because he has already experienced racism. I also believe as his mother it’s my job to teach him color and the cold hard truth about society. He knows what’s going on in this world. I’d be hurting him if I allowed him to blindly walk out...
The same thing happened to me. I couldn't produce enough so we supplemented with formula. She was still so upset and so we put her on all formula and now is happy and healthy as ever :)
