I stopped after a week! I had to go back to college 2 weeks after having him, and we were both stressed! I couldn’t stand that he wasn’t eating. Don’t let anyone try to tell you you’re in the wrong for formula feeding! My son is happy and healthy.

I’ve been giving my son exclusively for almost 10 months,no bottles. I will let him him wean himself off,if not I’ll probably stop within the next 6 months . Have you thought about about having a lactation consultant that could help your baby to latch properly ?

My daughter wouldn’t latch on. I started to use the nipple shield that you put over your nipple. Now she will nurse. If you haven’t tried it I would. Website below. www.medelabreastfeedingus.com/…/nipp…

Ya we almost lived in the lactation consultants office we were in there so often. I kinda figured that only the moms that were fortunate with easy breast-feeding would answer my question. I know there are moms that don’t feed every long but would never say it cause it’s looked so down on.

Just know that if you do switch to formula the length of time you did give breast milk was wonderful and did amazing things for baby!

I tried to EBF but my son was just not getting enough. He was not gaining weight and so we decided to supplement with formula. It was a hard decision because I was so emotionally invested in exclusively breast feeding. By at the end of the day it was about making sure he had enough to eat. The change in him once we started supplementing was amazing. Do what works best for you and your little one. If that means supplementing then go for it!

The la leche league book lists all of the benefits your baby gets based on the length of time you breastfed. I can’t find it online, but even at 3 months you’ve already given your LO so many benefits. Do what is best for both you and baby! Enjoy that little one while they are that little!

Take note that you need to take care of yourself to take care of baby! I started pumping when I went back to work and it made my supply drop. I tried power pumping every evening and between that and work I had no life. I became stressed, sick and depressed that my son had to switch to formula but really I should have been celebrating the 3 months he got of breast milk. Don’t beat yourself up if you choose to stop pumping. Baby will be okay and you will be much less stressed!!!

3 months of exclusively pumping? Wow great job momma! I quit breastfeeding at 4 months I was working and couldn’t make the time to pump and when I was home he was constantly feeding. My milk became mostly foremilk and I just felt it was time to stop. You did awesome and it’s something to be proud of!

My son as well did not take the breast that easily either he was not latching on hard enough to express or when he did latch on he would fall asleep immediately having seen the lactation consultant a few times baby was losing weight & the fact I was not sleeping at all because he was always hungry for 2 weeks straight I decided to do what was best for us so I started pumping after 2 weeks until 6 months it was sooooo HARD.

I supplemented w formula at about 5 months my milk supply went down because of work and not being able to pump as often.

I feel you. I have been exclusively pumping since my LO was 2 weeks (he is 12 weeks now). I am pretty over having to set an alarm for every 3 hrs to pump although I don’t wake up at night to pump. I will try and continue to pump as long as I can, mainly because it is the free option and formula is so expensive. I have a pretty large stock pile of frozen milk so once I’m getting close to being done I will figure out how much I have frozen for him. Hoping to get as close to a year but we will see

I couldn’t bf. I didn’t produce any milk. But I will say any amount is better than none so a few months is great and better than not doing any. Also your frustration, anxiety, and stress effects your baby. So while breast milk is great for your baby you need to do what’s best for you and your baby which means how you feel too. Also my LO is exclusively formula fed and perfectly healthy and happy. Meets all milestones ahead of where he should and the doc says he’s perfect so don’t feel bad

I only breastfed my son for 2 months. I have extremely flat nipples and even with a nipple shield, he couldn’t latch properly. I had the nurses and consultant from hell. They were so critical and judgmental. My son would just scream and scream and I would cry right along with him because they just wouldn’t stop pawing at both of us. I don’t feel bad in the least for switching to formula. Sometimes it is just hard on your body and mind. But you’re doing a wonderful job!

16 months and still breastfeeding. I’ve been pumping since day 1. She was in NICU and didn’t learn how to nurse for about a month. We’ve done bf and bottle from the start (now sippy cups) and still pump 1x a day at work. Prefer to bf when I’m with her. I planned to stop a 1 yr, but she wanted to keep going! Yeah!

If you’re pumping, you have good milk. I’d see an LC to see if you can get him to latch. You’ll enjoy it a lot more and get to relax over the whole thing. You’re making a great effort this far!

Both my daughters have now had latching Problems. My second daughter luckily uses the shield not First I had to pump ti she was 3-4months then she used the shield. She latched around 6 months. I would try the shield before switching to formula. The new shields are so great and you don’t have to pump after because your production isn’t affected like it would have been with the older style shields.

Omg!! It wasn’t easy the first 3 months, but I kept at it!!! My son was born a month early so hadn’t developed the sucking reflex. I remember feeding him and he would cry & pull off and I would think to myself “I thought breastfeeding was easy?” It does get easier, much easier!! And when that happens its magical, before that it was a battle…

I breastfed for 22 months, 18 months, 30 months and i’m currently breastfeeding my 20 month old! It is definitely challenging at the beginning each time but it gets much easier as they got older. I never bought bottles or formula so that i wouldn’t give up on a hard day. I also never thought that i would ever breastfeed for over a year until it happened. They weren’t ready to be done & neither was i. I decided to let them wean when they were ready!

We waited until 6 months. People used to think that babies would sleep better with solid foods, but it’s a myth. They will wake because their tummies are tiny and they need more. Breastmilk or formula offers all the nutrition they need for the first year, and solids can add stress to their developing digestive tract. Research has also shown that allergies can develop to the high risk foods introduced before LO has a strong immune/digestive system.

It’s much easier when they’re young because you clean them and take care of them yourself. My step daughter got hers around 3 months and now her holes won’t close, so she will never have to experience the pain of getting them (unless she wants more) just be careful because now is the time they want to experiment with grabbing their ears, nose, feet, etc… So ripping one out is definitely a risk!

When she’s old enough to make the decision on her own and old enough to sit in the chair by herself. I worked at Claire’s and piercing a babies ears is awful. Not only does your baby scream in pain but also its hard to hold their head still and make sure they are even on both sides since their ears are so little. I found once they were old enough to sit in the chair by themselves you could also have them pierced at the same time.

I got my daughters done after she got her first set of shots. Now she’s almost 2 and I can’t keep them in 🙁

My first got hers done when she asked for them ( at age 2). Her and I talked about it a lot and I explained many times they were to look at and not to touch. She was great when getting them done and even liked helping me clean them. She never once touched them otherwise. My second daughter got hers done at 3 1/2 months, and she was also great about it. She’s one now and she hasn’t bothered them at all either.

Think ahead to stuff you’ll want coming up. Larger size clothes, some kind of chair (we liked the Mamas and Papas over Bumbo), highchair, baby bowls, spoons, sippy cups, baby food blender system if you plan to make your own purées, bigger size diapers, sunscreen for when he hits 6 mon (we use California Baby), hats, socks. For you, anything that makes you feel relaxed and helps rejuvenate you – bath salts, bubble bath, a yummy tea or hot choco, music, books, stuff for what you like to do.

My little one had it since a couple weeks old. We finally tried Mustela Stelaker and foam shampoo. After a few days it was gone! We used the shampoo during his bath, leaving in for a few minutes then used a soft brush to soft it up, then rinse thoroughly. Then in the morning I applied the Stelaker. It’s a thin lotion that looks a little greasy when you first apply it, but it dries after a few minutes.

Use the baby’s soft bristle hair brush to gently rub while shampooing his hair every night. This will loosen it & it will come off in no time! Can even use a little lotion after!

My daughter had it too. I just gently scraped it off with my fingernails. Usually while she was BFing. Then just made really sure to wash her hair in gentle circular motion like a massage. She had it on her forehead and top of her eyebrows too. I also only washed her hair every 3 or 4 days when she was a baby to prevent her head from drying out.

Both my boys had cradle cap, and my 10 month old still has some traces of it. It’s not harmful and doesn’t bother the baby, so I just scrubbed the head with regular baby shampoo on a wash cloth during baths and then used a baby brush to loosen the dry skin cells. It eventually goes away so I wouldn’t stress over it.

Our ped told us to use selsun blue shampoo on the affected area like a facial mask for a few minutes, wipe away with washcloth. Cleared up right away. Downside is, it kinda stinks. And be careful not to get in baby’s eyes, it is NOT tear free.

Don’t wash his hair more than twice a week. If your shampoo has alcohol in it get a different shampoo. I like Babyganics. I put baby oil in his hair using a cotton ball. Then I use a soft bristle brush and comb his hair back to lift the dry skin. Lastly I smooth his hair back down with a clean cotton ball. Sometimes I repeat these steps a couple times. I don’t wash his hair until the next bath time which is usually the next day.

Coconut oil. It puts moisture back into the skin. It’s gentle for baby too! You don’t have to wash it out right away. Just be careful with it on baby’s head and then heading out into the sun, may cause a burn. Hope it helps.

We bath every night. I think a lot of the dry skin has to do with what soap you are using. If your using a soap with alcohol and formaldehyde in it then babies skin will dry out (as well as if you follow with lotions with the same ingredients) we once ran outta our soap and lotion and used one we got in the mail as sampled and holy moly it dried her out quick!

I live in California and we are experiencing a major drought; so, we’ve given up a nightly bath to conserve water. It helps establish a calming bedtime routine, though, and helps keep bedding cleaner longer. If you’re worried about your LO’s skin being too dry, you can help seal in moisture by applying lotion liberally after each bath. We also love using The Honest Company’s organic body oil (
