The face of my breastfed only three and a half month olds face when I try and give him formula.
Before people judge. I got the IUD not knowing its known for decreasing breast milk! Trying to get it up but nothing seems to be working.
He will but only for a short time not even long enough to call it a nursing session its like I'm forcing him on the boob if I try to do it longer then he starts to bite it and I call a quits
@cubanese I still try to bf my son although I see often times if he's ready hungry he gets frustrated because of my decrease. At night when he wakes I let him feed and occasionally during the day ...my question is should I pump during the day every two hours and for how long ?
Yes I know that. Its hard for me to pump so much because I do have two under the age of four. And its only me. I'm trying to pump more but my milk is just dropping so much and I know it's because of my IUD and getting it removed is not a option for me.
@cubanese I nurse when he wants to nurse and when he's sleeping, I pump.
Yea I know. I had to formula feed my first born and my second at four months. I'm trying hard to go at least 6 months but my supply just keeps dropping and he wont eat formula. @momofdeuce
Forget anyone who judge and dont feel bad for formula feeding...I felt ashamed when I switched and people asked and I to tell them That I now give my son formula bitw I realized That was silly of me .....you have to do what's best for your child and fed is best !
Are there any things that would help along with pumping?@cubanese
