So my 9 month old is in hospital with bronchiolitis. I have to stay in here with him.
the hospital don't provide his milk and won't let me make up formula. So I'm buying really expensive ready made milk. They also don't provide baby food and don't want me bringing home made. So I'm also buying jars of food for him.
They don't feed me and there is only sandwich places at the hospital so I have been buying expensive microwave meals for me.
So including parking it's costing a small fortune to be here.
I just found out that if I was breastfeeding (somthing I was unable to do) they would feed me.
I now just feel a but hacked off that it's costing me so much to be here when there are other parents that are in the same position getting either themselves or there baby fed by the hospital.
AIBU to think that as a children's hospital they should provide baby food, and to feel that they should feed all mums. We all need energy to look after our babies, breastfeeding or not. It's not like I can just not eat because my son is on formula.
