How much are you spending on formula a month?
My original goal was to make it six months breastfeeding if I was able to. Things have gone fairly smoothly with it, and I've been lucky enough to exclusively breastfeed so far. Now that we're approaching six months, I'm wondering what everyone's paying a month on average for formula. I'm considering continuing breastfeeding to avoid the cost of formula, but I do feel like my mental health will improve a little bit if we transition to formula. Just trying to get some input before making this decision.

Approximately $200 on Kendamil Organic Cow formula. It’s not covered by wic (it’s a European brand) but I’ve been told you can get it on food stamps. It’s definitely top shelf as far as organic formulas go
I quit breastfeeding at 6 weeks pp. it was taking such a huge toll on my mental health and was just not working out for us, was the best decision I’ve made. I was sad I wasn’t able to provide that for my son but I couldn’t be a good/present mom if I was suffering.
I use the cvs store brand and spend about 150 a month exclusively on formula. The cvs plus membership is worth it's weight in gold
$270 per month but we are feeding Bobbie (organic/more expensive brand)
About $240 a month for about 6 cans. We use kendamil organic infant formula which is about $40 a can.
