All the milk I defrost smells sour 😭 my son will not drink it and now I’m gonna have to start him on formula because I have to go back to work soon. I really didn’t want to have to do formula but gotta do what I have to for him to be full and happy.
What brand and type of formula do you guys use? My son is a very gassy baby.

@kasey.m some do but most will refuse it cuz of the taste. They will drink it fresh pumped or off the source but once unfrozen or chilled the tatse of the high lapse comes out

Agreed I was going to mention the high lipase. It usually shows in when u defrost. Also make sure ur defrosting properly!

What exactly shows to know if it’s that? What’s the proper way to defrost?
I’ve been taking it from freezer and putting in refrigerator until defrosted then warming in warm water for him to drink. Smells sour even before warming.

You could have high lipase in your breast milk that’s probably why it’s sour. Add some non alcoholic vanilla extract to the breast milk

Yes I agree. I’m gonna still try to breastfeed when possible. Hopefully every other feeding until he absolutely has to be on the bottle because of work. I’m just sad that our breastfeeding journey has to end.

@kasey.m, you could pump what you can at work then just supplement the extra he needs. It doesn’t have to end if you don’t want it too.

They're required to give you breaks to pump. If you get in the rhythm now and continue during work you should pump enough to keep him on breast milk 💜 Don't let this slow you down.

My work does give 3 15 min breaks for pumping but I work 10-12 hour shifts. That’s not a sufficient amount of time to actually pump and it’s not that I can’t pump it’s that if all my milk is sour I don’t see him wanting to drink it after it’s been sitting. I don’t pump enough per day to supply him for the next day if I just kept it refrigerated. I want to be prepared before going to back to work.

@kasey.m I was just trying to be uplifting. My bad.
Similac is a good formula.

@mychemicalshaymance, i didn’t mean it to sound mean I was just explaining the reasoning why I don’t think pumping at work would be an option for us right now. Long shifts and not enough breaks.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no, his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?
My boyfriend thinks I should hire someone he can have sex with for 6 weeks after I have my son. I don't know whether to snap on him or what?
Question 🙋🏽 ♀ : what age do you allow your kids to have a cell phone? My son wants a phone and I don’t know why lol. I’m like you have a iPad for games and anyone you need to call you can have my phone.
Trigger. Lost baby Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?
Make your own breakfast! At what age do you think a child should be making their own breakfast? I have a 10 year old and I think he is perfectly capable of making himself breakfast. It doesn't take rocket science to put some waffles into the toaster, or microwave some pancakes. My husband insists that he needs to have breakfast made for him because if we left it up to him he wouldn't eat enough and it would take him forever.

Yes that's the proper way to do it so I would def say the high lapse.
