I hate everyone telling me to breastfeed whats wrong with just pumping its the same thing... and no I am not missing out on bonding with my baby just leave me the fuck alone
@love345, oh man I'm so sorry dude. I'm lucky, the moms I know irl never breastfed and I'm mostly friends with men who have no idea. I really only get flack on this app. Sorry yours is in person an constant like thst
Dude tell them to just fuck off, I'm so sick of the whole thing. Breast milk, breastfeeding, formula who really cares baby is fed an happy. Besides any time your exposed to a virus it sends antibodies to the milk, I only express pump as well don't breastfeed, she still gets the milk. My body doesn't need to adjust to what she eats because my pump over expresses what she eats and I now have storage in my freezer. Be proud momma because I'm right there on your side!!
@babymomma1215, yes I try and she doesn't want to be on the breast so I am pumping she's 9 days old and I'm exhausted I find it easier for me to just pump and then feed her thank god someone understands
Im pretty sure you are aware of the benefits of breast feeding, people need to understand it honesty doesn't matter, as long as baby is being fed. I know I was devastated when I couldn't breast feed my daughter and it didn't help when people kept reminding me of how much better it'd be to breast feed! When they had no Idea how many times I've cried because I couldn't breast feed her! At least you are feeding your baby👌🏽💜 You go girl🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
they are only trying to help. it actually is much different than pumping because of many different things that go along with breast to mouth nursing. breastmilk will be awesome for your baby either way though no matter how you choose to give it to the baby. :)
my son refuses to nurse I exclusively pump. your body automatically adjusts without the baby. my son eats more than he should so I add flax seed to stuff to help my production. either way they still get breast milk. freeze your colostrum and save for when they're sick, it helps a lot :)
I'm not saying I disagree with your choice but when you actually breastfeed your milk adjusts to your baby's needs, like if he/she is sick, your milk will create antibodies to help them get better. It's amazing what our bodies are capable of.
