my son will be 4 months in two weeks. I BF and he gets formula when I'm at work which would be 4 hours a day. My son is used to comfort feeding he can't fall asleep without my boob. Not unless he is super tired and rocked to sleep. So of course anyone who watches him has a hard time :( I feed bad for him and anyone who is watching him. A lot of ppl suggested for me to just give him a bottle so it won't be so hard for him. Any thoughts to this?
@mommabeardurso, that would be actually my next post. I've tried pumping and he reacts the same way to the bottle. I've switched nipples and the current one I have is actually working better than the previous one.
See if he will take a pacifier after the bottle for comfort.
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...
@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...
Am I wrong for not wanting anybody to ride my sons bike but him hes 3 and he has a auntie who is the same age as him but I dont want her to ride it either...
so my husband wants to feed are baby but the thing is that I will be breastfeeding so idk how it would work. he was thinking that when he wants to feed him he would give him formula but I just want my baby to have breast milk. so then he said why don't you pump your milk out and I'll feed it to him and i thought that would be the best thing but then I'm scared that my baby will get use to the bottle. I need help idk what to do because my husband really wants to feed him :/ and we need to come up...
Just so mad at my husband before we moved he promised he would put our son to bed at night and get him his bottle. Then promised that on the mornings he doesn't work or the ones he works later he would feed him breakfast so I can have my relax time before having him all day long. Then every morning he is here he says he's not going to get him breakfast because he doesn't want to and sits there telling me to go make and feed our son breakfast. Then every time I remind him of his promise he rolls ...
Yeah I use to work 8-10 hours over night and she would only take maybe 3 oz of my milk. I never tried giving her formula though. Basically as long as she was gaining weight I was ok. She ate all day long to make up for it. Eventually though I did quit my job, it's so hard to take care of a baby with no sleep. Try other nipples.
