My son is turning 9 months in a week and I decided to ween him off 😢 completely. He was exclusively breastfed for 6 months. And then he was breastfeeding at nights and solids and formula in the day but I just had surgery and needed more help from dad at night so he has been giving him formula bottles at night. It has helped him sleep through the night more now & only wakes up once or twice now and before he would wake up about 4 times to eat. I just feel like I wanted to breast feed for a longer time but I hate pumping and my boyfriend said I’ve already done a good job in nursing him but I just feel like I’ve failed in some way 😔

@mommyofljc17 Yeah i understand , but your doing a good job! Alot of moms do not even make it to 6 months for medical reasons or etc. Don't doubt yourself.You gave your babe good antibodies and a lot of good stuff in his body 😁😁
@ariaamando, thank you it’s just so hard to realize sometimes and being a first time mom too I tend to put myself down. But I think I have learned a lot and for my second baby I’ll be way more prepared to breastfeed maybe even longer
You havent failed your lil man at all. You've breastfeed for a good solid 6 months you should be proud of yourself!!! Listen to your bf , hes telling u the truth hun .
My boyfriend hasn’t changed ONE diaper ever and my son is 9 months old. He hasn’t fed him in about 5 months, he doesn’t bath him and hes never been left alone with him and he doesn’t even wake up during the night to help with him. He MAYBE washes the bottles at night if it’s a good day and I’m confused as to how bc I’m a woman IM supposed to do all that by myself?? lmfao ya no.
My son just turned 4 months and he eats a lot like 5 ounces every 2 - 3 hours is that bad ? Should I start introducing him to cereal ? He's on enfamil formula maybe mixing cereal in his milk will keep his tummy full for a longer time ? I don't want to be over feeding him , he also spits up a lot & sometimes I have a really hard time getting his gases out he randomly gets these tantrums out of nowhere because he has trapped gas & the only way he calms down is if I pick him up and walk around the ...
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
Lol I just want to keep kissing him till he wakes up
I broke down at my moms house today ... because of the debt we owe and Passover is coming and it’s a very expensive holiday ... it was just way too much .... my mom i guess told my brother that I’m suffering and he called me over and asked me why i didn’t just ask for help, and offered to help when i need it . And gave me basically 4K to help for the month and if i need more to ask ... now one thing about me , is that i will suffer silently and won’t ask for help.... I’ve always been that way. ...
Side note you live where i grew up lol @mommyofljc17
