Question ladies: so I'm pumping and giving my son formula, but lately it's been more formula then breast milk because my boobs aren't producing enough. How can I increase my milk supply? I want to feed him more breast milk or try and just feed him breast milk and take away the formula but not enough milk is coming out my boobs. I've tried the lactation cookies haven't worked that well not sure if it's because I'm only eating once a day. Do I need to eat more? And I tried the mothers milk tea and that stuff is friggen disgusting so I stopped drinking it! I need help!!!!
Nursing on demand helped me a lot,I had my baby on me all the time the first month..also drinking lots of water! And u do need to eat more as well
Hey girlies! I plan on breast feeding my LO as much as I can. I also plan to formula feed when needed. Have any of you moms tried organic formulas? How was it? Experience?
opinions about breast feeding while pregnant. the receptionist at my OB told me while making my appointment to start getting her off of the boob, because breast feeding causes your uterus to contract and can cause a miscarriage or preterm labor. any ladies breast feed your LO while pregnant and should I believe the receptionist?? my baby just turned 3 months on the 23rd .I give her breast and formula sometimes. any advice is appreciated👍
I've been supplementing some with formula because my baby boy just demands more than what I'm putting out and he seems happier with the formula..my breast milk doesn't seem to satisfy him enough and it seems like he's always hungry unless I give him formula..should I switch to formula only? I thought breast milk was supposed to be best but in his case I'm not so sure ugh idk what to do I just want him to be happy
Am I they only mom on here not breast feeding? I never have enough milk come in to supply a baby so formula it is
Because I have to be on mental health medication after birth I am unable to breastfeed😔 what are some good formulas for babies? I know breast is best but I can’t be on the medication I need and breast feed.
@cubanese, the thing is is that he doesn't latch at all I've tried since he was born and just doesn't want to latch on so I was trying to do exclusively pump but my milk supply just went down so much so we've been feeding him formula most of the time. And if I can maybe give him breast milk twice a day and that's been making me so frustrated because I wanted to exclusively breast feed but didn't latch then I was trying to do exclusively pump but my milk supply went down. So I don't know what to do
