@katrina2017 I am so confident in my decision now, thank you! I just looked at the 64k people in breast feeding sub and I’m like wow, there is a huge difference, but who really cares? These comments are so awesome and empowering.
@randall1022 I love this so much. My mom as much as she’s annoyingly about BF I think will be so happy that she can help nourish the baby whenever we need. Thank you! ❤️
@jasssattar That’s what I’m learning! Sleep is the only thing that stabilizes me from bi-polar so anything that can help is better for me and the baby.
@melbourne Wow I’m screenshooting this I literally am starting from square one with learning about feeding so this helps me a ton esp since it’s about formula feeding, thank you so much!!
@melbourne thank you for the detailed response. It’s really helpful for me. We will obviously be EFF for the beginning so I’m seeing the benefits of not pumping helping divide responsibilities. When you first had her was it the same schedule or were the feedings or were they closer together? Or...
@melbourne This great advice, thank you! would you mind elaborating on the sleeping shifts with your partner / nanny - what the sifts are and how you work with a 3rd person? I think that’s what I would most likely do. if you’re uncomfortable sharing you can ignore me!
@jiaru You know what it’s definitely in my own head more than anything and you’re right about my mom wanting the same experience because I think she loved BF me so much (clearly since she did it for a long time in my case). Thanks!
@ajarrett Love this. I just think the whole latching drama, cluster feeding, nipple issues etc made me really nervous and I also had no idea what to expect with FF so this is all really helpful! Thanks!
@dobichlan18 I honestly feel no guilt after all these comments and my whole outlook has changed. No lie I just cried for a little because the stress of this had been so high and now I feel relief. This sub rules.
@robertnethromik Thank you! I said to someone else that there’s a staggering difference in the breast feeding sub than this sub and I feel like there are a lot of comments in there that are a little holier than thou about EBF and attachment. Honestly because of this post I know know EFF is for...
@emanuela Yes!! The father spending less time feeding because of breast feeding always made me kind of sad and anxious like the dad isn’t my equal partner and spending time with the baby.
@jli57772 Yes! My boyfriend is very supportive of FF and actually suggested for us to look in to it because he was also FF. With my mom I never knew it was an option.
