Hey ladies, my first post... Nice to meet you all 😁 so i have debating breastfeeding... This isn't…

Welcome Hun x

Im not going to lie... its hard work but its so worth it. I bf my son for 6 weeks but it just wasnt enough for him whereas my daughter clung on for 11 months. It was tiring but saved me a fortune and i wasnt carrying around bottles and warmers etc so its very convenient. Its totally your decision. Dont be pressured into it if you dont want to of if it doesnt suit you or baby. X

I really want to try it i just don't want my other kids to suffer because I'm by myself doing it all now and i have to share my time you know? X

Still breastfeeding my nearly 15 month old 🙊👌✋X It was really demanding...especially the first 6-8 weeks :) But as their stomachs get bigger...the feeds should space out quite a bit :) Because you have 2 older children...get bubba into a routine earlier and it should make things flow better :) Your boys could help you out too. But if you want...you can try it out...see how it goes. You can always go onto formula if its not working out for you hun xxx

I'm so worried she might not take to a bottle if i try it and it doesn't work lol it's silly i guess! I think i will try thanks Hun x

My daughter was breast and bottle fed at the beginning because I really struggled for the first few days. I stopped the bottle and tried again a month later and she wasn't having it at all lol so my advice is probably do combination to get baby used to both. I'm still breastfeeding now at nearly 6 months and I wish she would take the bottle xx

Can you do the combination straight away? That would be ideal really ... I'm happy to even express tbh x

@forevermeandthem Hmm that could happen :) With my daughter I expressed when she was 5 days old and she took one bottle....tried her again when she was 9 weeks old and she refused it :) There's many women that sucessfully express their milk...and use bottle with their babies (maybe you could try this to keep options open) with my next...Im going to either express my milk/breast feed alongside...or do boob and formula :) Maybe see closer to the time hun...no rush in your decision hun :) Xx

Welcome lovely❤

I loved every minute i strictly breast fed all mine it's an amazing feeling and it helps with bounding xxx
