So I'm breastfeeding and I desperately wanna keep breastfeeding but I feel like my baby isn't getting enough to eat and she's literally hungry every hour and a half to two hours. And my nipples are hurting really really bad. I feel like I should just formula feed her because she'll get more to eat that way and get full. No matter how long she eats on my nipple she doesn't seem to get full.
@bianca_rose, she's latching okay because she's latching how she was before we were dismissed from the hospital and they said it was good.
I agree with everyone else, also, maybe her latch isn't good if your nipples are hurting? There are YouTube vids to help with that
That's normal, she is probably comfort or cluster feeding. As long as she is gaining weight on track and having plenty of dirty diapers then there's no reason for formula
That's normal! Crap my baby ate every 15 minutes the first 2 months due to cluster feeding
Even a bottle fed baby eats every 2 hours. that's how it's supposed to be. @babyrsmommy
you can beeast feed and formula feed i had to do it i didn't provide enough for my daughter and my pediatrician said i can alternate breast feeding and formula
Oh ok
