@mrsgraffiti, I'm so sorry did u ever find out what the underlying issue was to why ur body didn't produce any milk. Well I will say this I'm pro breast feeding but what I hate to see is a mom who never tried and u tried so good for u👏🏼👏🏼 that's really what matters ur baby is fed and happy ur a good mom

I nursed my baby for a full month and then had to stop due to her tummy being so sensitive to the foods I ate she'd constantly have loose stools and gas. She had to be put on nutramigen. She's been on formula for a week and a half now and I still wish I could've continued the breast feeding because it was such a special bond. But we have to do what's best for our babies and breastfeeding doesn't make you any better of a mother. You still have to wake up and feed them no matter if it's from a bottle or breast! Keep your head up mommy. I promise your LO won't hold it against ya! 😉

@moonslugg we tried pumping, we tried massaging, we tried it all. My milk never came in.

There wasn't a definitive moment, really. The hospital failed to have a lactation consultant visit me until my third day in the hospital. That's when we found out that all my "nursing" was for naught as I wasn't producing any milk. And then 2 weeks later I still hadn't. It just never came in. By then we were (obviously) strictly formula feeding, so even if it had come in, I dont know how he would have reacted. @ciciham

I don't know your situation but if you can, try pumping! :) that's what I am doing since I'm not nursing

How did you know you weren't going to be able to? That's one of the worries I'm having with my daughter right now. I just had her last night so I don't know how things will go, and I know it's not the end of the world if we can't, but it was just something that was important to me personally
