How are you doing with feeding now? How are you feeling about it all? I decided to quit yesterday, was in agony so called it a day, cried most of yesterday and today want to BF again!! Hope you are ok, just wondered how you were feeling about it all xxxx

I'm looking forward to just enjoying my baby now!!! Glad you are feeling better! It's such a stress, not sure I'd consider BFing again if I had another child!!! xxx
I hope you are felling better\!

Hope you and Jacob are doing ok? How is he at taking the formula? Are you getting a break now? Have you had some rest? xxx
Nearly 6weeks in (and after 4weeks of hell) i'm still BF but now topping up with formula after every feed. This is mainly due to baby's weight issues but also that i just couldn't cope with a starving baby any longer, it just felt so cruel. I contemplate giving up BF every day and almost every feed but when i think about the feed possibly being the last i just can't do it.
I think you've both done amazingly well and come to the right decisions for your individual circumstances.
Good luck to both of you

MummyLintern it has nothing to do with you not coping, you've had it rough and we can only do our best. You can only struggle so much and we deserve to enjoy our babies.
Goddam it your right, i should be proud, as should we all, no matter how long or short our journey!

MummyLintern, it's not just you not coping!!!!! It's just been a lot tougher for you than most- it's just not meant to be for some of us!!!
Take care!!!! xxxx
