I thought I had this breastfeeding thing down pack, but I'm getting a feeling Im going to have to go to formula. Kenzie's been getting impatient while feeding and crying while sucking I think my milk supply is depleting. Im so sad cause I really wanted to breastfeed for her entire first year.

Don't give up breastfeeding @mrs_spectaculus, I thought the same thing but sometimes her latch wasn't good and other times o had to switch breasts when she did that. I still pump what I can whether it's from one side while she eats or both after she eats and I freeze it for the sitter. I supplement with formula when we have long trips or a busy weekend but that's only 1-2 bottles a day when needed. That also allows me to stock up on breast milk through the week for the sitter while I'm at work.

Thanks so much @cubanese I've never even heard of paced bottle feeding. I'll stick it out and watch her on the diapers. I really appreciate the help!
