Feeling like a shitty mom I wanted so badly to breastfeed my son but same as with my daughter it's making him really sick he has really bad diarrhea he's not getting any better on my breast milk switched him to the formula and instantly he looks better my body is making my kids sick when I breastfeed so I guess that's out of the question
Poop can be weird while baby and the digestive system is adjusting. It's only been a week. I think it's too soon to say you're failing and go on formula.
Are you completely sure it's diarrhea and not normal breastfed baby poop?
It's okay! Don't blame yourself lady! As long as your baby is being fed, that should be all that matters. Don't let this make you feel like any less of a mom ❤️ you're amazing
They might to cultural test if they don't think it's normal.
Remember that all poops come in different colors depending of our food intake
I agree with @js_kidsmom,
Since breastmilk is so healthy, and it hardly has any bad in it, our children take less time to pass through there tummy.
Sometimes they go without pooping for 3 days bcuz our breastmilk is so good for them.
@clairandelijahsmom,
I am sorry hun.
Try to do half formula and half breastmilk, until he starts getting used to breastfeeding. Sometimes drastic changes could affect all of us, especially if you have been doing formula. Have you also tried this?
His is full on brown and soaks all the way through his diapers and clothes
@mrz.lulu I've gone to six different lactation consultants took them a list of everything I eat and they can't seem to help
Did you know that eating peanut can constipate out little ones.
Same as eating spicy food, it can cause there tummy to hurt.
Remember, what you eat, they also eat.
@drewandvaehsmommy I haven't since he was born I changed my entire diet to make it absolutely the healthiest I could for him
I agree. What ever you eat impact them as well. Breastfeeding is the best for our children. Try to seek more help before you give up and blame your self.
If your baby is feeling better do what you thinks best.
