Hey girlies! I plan on breast feeding my LO as much as I can. I also plan to formula feed when needed. Have any of you moms tried organic formulas? How was it? Experience?
@salt. I deleted my request for a reference - just googled it instead lol. I did find the company's response earnest and upstanding. But thank you for the info!

Also, I tried some lactation supplements from Legendairymilk.com and I thought they helped my supply as well. They are completely organic also.
Good luck momma! I know it can be stressful and its great that you're thinking ahead to prepare as much as possible!
@salt., thanks, I’m just asking for a back up plan if I don’t get to breastfeed exclusively or won’t produce at all. Went to weigh in my options
@joselin.salazar47 just reading some comments they have pumps you can put in your bra hands free. Also they have to offer you a designated room to pump. Not the bathroom.
@joselin.salazar47, Your welcome love apparently I missed that there was drama lol
I've been using Plum Organics formula for our kiddo as my milk dried up. It's been great - no issues at all.
Definitely try asking for the Domperidone I’ll search my med surge and see what the compatible medication is in the USA for ya.
@joselin.salazar47 I would refrain from supplementing because it may cause your supply to tank. Also if you do supplement you may want to pump to keep your supply up.
@peppa., thanks for the advice :) I’m just curious to know just in case! I hope I get to breastfeed exclusively.
@beakymcspence, wow I didn’t know ! I tried fenugreek with my first and it helped a lot. I’m just worried because baby will spend a lot of time with grandma and I’ll be in school and working as well. I had many horrible experiences at school when I use to pump. One that I won’t ever forget it when I was pumping and I had filled two 6oz bottles and someone slammed the bathroom door so hard that both bottles fell to the ground and I was balling my eyes out.
I don’t understand why she even commented in the first place 🤦🏼♀️ I get where you’re coming from!
If you want to help up your milk supply fenugreek supplement does WONDERS. I used it because I pumped for our little guy with special needs from birth till 16 months as he had a feeding tube. The only formulas we ever tried were prescription and not organic so I can’t help there babe sorry. Doctors can also prescribe Domperidone or “motilium” which really helps with supply!
@itty_bitty, maybe it’s the way people word stuff the way you can read a person comment can come off helpful or come off like your being an smart ass !! And it doesn’t help that there’s moms on here who act like you can’t ask a question if they don’t agree with the topic or understand what’s the reason your asking so they just attack sadly .
No need to get your panties in a wad. Why does everyone here get so butt hurt lol. Its comical
@itty_bitty, because I don’t want to pump. I’m asking a question here and if you can’t answer it keep it moving
Nothing is more natural than breastmilk. Why not just pump and give bottle? If baby doesn't need to supplement
Breastfeeding. I am a HUGE breastfeeding advocate. No, I will NOT shame you if you decide to formula feed, and will not tolerate anyone else doing so on my post. Everyone has their own reasons on why they feed their child the way they see fit.
Ladies I need your help! I’m planning on giving baby her first feed from the breast so she gets all my colostrum but after I’m using formula. Did you mummies that formula feed take the ready made bottles with teats to the hospital in case you had to stay in?
Formula feeding mommies I received a couple $5 coupons for Enfamil in the mail, expire in May. I plan on breastfeeding again so I’d like to give them to someone else who will actually use them ?
What are you ladies planning to do breast feed or formula ?
Lady at WIC making me feel bad cause I want to formula feed & breast feed my baby, like it isn't my fault my chubby bunny eats 2x what I produce, & I refuse to let my child starve so yes I will formula feed him. 👀😒
