NOT A BF VS FF DEBATE!
I am not against ff at all but after developing a good bf relationship with ds2 I'm happy and in no rush to stop. As a student I'm away from him 2 days a week so express whilst at university for the next time. Ds2 still feeds through the night every 2 hours. He's 5 months and obviously doing well bf as he weighs over 25lbs. I know family, friends etc are just trying to be helpful but I'm fed up of being advised to put him on formula because he's ' such a hungry baby' and needs more. I'm not a martyr to feeding but I do wish people would say well done for keeping up with him, not almost seeming to criticise me for my efforts. I know i am very tired, and working hard to keep up with phd but i am managing it. They keep trying to convince me to stop bf due to lack of sleep and having to rush round university to express, etc but I really enjoy bf. I know its all meant kindly but I want to very politely tell them to back off and its my choice.
