Formula

I was feeling the same exact way when I was struggling to produce enough milk too! I felt so so guilty when trying to make the decision to call it and switch to formula exclusively and it was affecting my mental health way more than struggling through was worth for me. There is nothing wrong with formula feeding, a fed baby and a happy mama are what matter most! I totally get what you are feeling, just know many of us have felt that way when making the decision but everyone’s situations are different! You’re not a failure, you’re doing your best! You matter in this too, it’s very easy to lose sight of you being a person still when trying to manage what you think is best for baby also keep yourself in mind 💕

A happy mama means happy baby! My oldest had a milk allergy and didn’t latch well. To me it wasn’t worth triple feeding so we switched to fully formula. I just had my second baby 6 months ago and nursed for 2 months. Everything was going fine until I hit my breaking point with anxiety and needed to let something go so I stopped and baby transitioned to fully formula and has been doing great ever since. Both my kids are healthy and happy and I am a happier mom for them! My husband was so supportive about the decision too and he wanted me back to my happy self. Did I feel guilt about it yes but it gets easier over time from my experience 💕💕
