Is it bad I want to switch to formula? I feel so guilty I've always really wanted to breastfeed until 6 months. My daughter will be two weeks old tomorrow and I hate to admit it but I'm so frustrated with breastfeeding and I don't want to do it anymore. The past few days she never seems to get completely full and I'm exhausted waking up to feed her through the night. Formula feeding is so much easier when we're in public and when my boyfriend wants to feed her...and yet I don't want to stop BF because of the bond we have. What do I do? (also, pumping hasn't worked out)

She's probably cluster feeding and that's why it seems like she's not getting enough. That happens when they hit a growth spurt.

wss ^ And really formula feeding at any point (imo) is more work. Measuring, lugging stupid powder and water and bottles.....ughhh i hated it. I hate that the easy availability of formula makes it so easy for mothers to give up on nursing so fast. Don't give up mama. Its hard some days, but the best things in life are worth fighting for. You can do it

it's your decision, if it's don't feel right for you, just go with formula. the most important it's,that you feed your baby and you feel good, not what you choose 💞
