Argh, after 14 weeks of crap (hospitailisation after 5 days, endless cycles of pumping, domperidone) my baby is still hardly putting on weight (only 1oz in two weeks)
So now I have the hv, dr and guessing the paediatrician I'm referred to in three weeks are all suggesting ff.
I've worked so hard to ebf, I really want to do this. It's so hard, there is no support for bf when there are difficulties. No one can offer my any explanation to why ff is "better" or suggestions for what I can do differently.
My baby is happy, wiggley and active, meeting milestones and wet and pooey nappies. I don't know what to do for my next move, I don't think I can remain positive in the face of such resistance :(
