Feeds have always been a struggle. A horrible, upsetting struggle.
Baby now seems to only want a bottle at bedtime and another dream feed when j go to bed, so 12/14oz in a day
I’m beyond defeated by this. I feel like I just can’t fight him any more. I want to have lovely snuggly cuddles at nap time without a bottle ‘fight.’ But everyone is telling me he needs a certain amount etc and because I want the best for him it’s hard to know what to do
Has anyone else had this?
Please, don’t anyone suggest I put it in food. He won’t touch it if it’s got formula in it and will scoff it down if it’s cows milk. He eats really well and has lots of dairy
Same with different bottles. I’ve tried them all. My house is full of them. I’ve tried it all times of day.
He just.doesnt.want.it.
I feel like such a complete and utter failure. I had to give up bf ‘against my will’ so all of this feels like a constant reminder of how shit I am. Several times a day. For almost a year.
I guess I want someone to tell me that their baby didn’t want formula at his age and so they just did one/two before bed and their baby was fine 🤷♀️
