How's everyone coping with breast feeding? I love it but the demand is just killing me. I'm so exhausted and my baby just wants to constantly feed day and night and be held constantly, so I'm getting hardly any sleep. I know with regards to breast milk supply it's not good to introduce formula but I feel the odd bottle is required to give me time to sleep. Further, the gaps are so tight between feeds that it's very difficult to express before he wants time boob again. Anyone else in this situation?

Hun I was the same Albie was feeding non stop I was so tired! So introduced one bottle s day of 4oz then trio bottles and now I still BF but he has a 5-7oz bottle every 2-3 hours and I between I feed him it never effected my supply he never got nipple confusion it took away the stress for me feeding on demand it was a nightmare when we was out and about etc I'm really glad I added in bottles I think because I done that I've BF for longer and probes will do as its not do stressful X

yep me!! was feeding on-demand and it's exhausting. I have introduced a formula feed at around 10-11pm so she sleeps a bit better at night X then she might have another one at 6-7am X means OH can do feeds and I can sleep a bit longer before she needs the next one x
