Until 12 months don’t plan on using formula
Never ? I don't know why you would if you've been successful up till now!
I don’t plan to
Just to balance things out I’m slowly introducing formula now and going to stop at 5-6 months. Everyone’s circumstances are different xx
I was.going to stop at 3.months (as I was stuggling) but now I've got it sussed (most days) so I'll.prob carry on till I got back to work (9-12 months)
Have always combi fed but started off 10% formula however am increasing every couple of weeks so that he’ll be fully formula fed when I return to work in January
I originally wanted her to have my breast milk till 1 year (I exclusively pump not actually put baby to my breast) but pumping is really getting me down at the minute so I’m aiming till at least I go back to work (she will be nearly 10 months) but who knows as maybe when she’s weaning I might find the less pumping easier x
I did 4 months exclusively breastfeeding, now baby boy is on cow and gate formula x
Until 6 months then moving to formula x
I started trying a bottle of formula in the evenings in the hope he might sleep longer at night, but it’s not really worked! So I’ll probably start to transition to formula for when I go back to work at 9-10 months. It worked well for my first and meant I only needed formula for a few months.
I ebf, I plan to until he doesn’t want to or when I return to work (whichever comes first) I have used a bottle occasionally for expressed milk so that it will make the transition easier if we need to stop at a young age for whatever reason. But I can’t see us stopping anytime soon tbh x
The plan (which has changed multiple times) is to ebf until weaning, then used stashed frozen milk as bottles once 3 solid meals a day established, and then onto formula once stash has gone. However I get the hump about breastfeeding about 18 times a week and swear I'm going to stop, then in-between those get sad about potentially stopping and want to do it for longer, then any spare time in between that I dread the day I take the boob away, and then maybe 4 times a day convince myself it's a good idea to buy formula today. So who knows really 🤣
Whenever I need to .....I'm not stopping but I'm not pressuring myself either so I'm just going with the flow I breastfed my daughter till she self weaned at 18months so I'm just going on till either he weans or something needs to change no pressure just going with the flow I will be introducing expressed milk bottles soon though so I can leave the house for more than a hour without him 😂
I'm starting to introduce formula now and will see if I can stop around 7/8 months as will be back at work. I don't want to stop suddenly to avoid being engorged but it's hard work to prep the bottle etc... !!! But it's so nice to have my hb give the bottles and for me to get some time !

Hopefully never. 4 months now done, it’s been a struggle the first 2 months but after establishing a good supply it’s going great! Guaranteed it’s not easy, but I love it so much I won’t take it away from bubba. Planning on minimum 12 months, if I will manage I’ll do 18 months or 24. It’s the best thing my baby will ever get.
I plan to breastfeed hopefully until at least 1, if not 2, so I don’t plan on introducing formula.
