Breastfeeding vs formula which do y’all prefer? Or which did y’all choose and how Yu like it?
I preferred breastfeeding. It's cheaper, easier at night, and I loved the time with my daughter. Plus, she didn't seem to get as sick as she did when I eventually switched to formula. I stopped when she started teething and bit me... but this time around I'm going to try to breastfeed for at least a year. Buying formula sucks.
Breastfeeding. I tend to add formula later on but first couple months is ebf.
Breastfeeding doesn't hurt. The first week or so takes some getting used to but once you and baby get comfortable then it doesn't hurt. If it hurts then you aren't doing it right @excitedmom2be
Breastfeeding. The original reason I chose it is because it's cheap, then after researching and finding out its the better option if you are able to produce enough milk it kind of sealed my decision. I'm in no way shaming formula feeding though, we all do what we can or have to do, as long as baby is fed.The first two weeks were really difficult and painful, but it's totally worth it. I don't have to worry about carrying around enough formula and bottles, I just pull out my boobie. 😂
It also makes it a lot easier to sleep at night, I cosleep so all I have to do is turn him on his side and put my boob in his mouth and go back to sleep.
I prefer breastfeeding but I have had to formula feed my first born so either way is fine.. I just love the saving of money from buying formula cause that shit seems to keep getting more and more expensive
I formula feed my son. He has reflux so we use a formula for that Enfamil AR. I chose to formula feed so others besides myself could feed him when I wasn't there it also gives his dad a chance to have that bond that feeding lets him have with him.
Yeah I'm going to breastfeed as well even though it hurts and I'm scared...

Right? 😂 Oh god the cramps it causes right after birth and if you don't use nipple cream omg. My son latched onto my nipple wrong on the very first day and bruised it, it hurt like a bitch until the bruise went away. Still worth it though! Lol
