Hey. Please be honest.
My dd is almost 6 months old so will be starting some food soon.
I am ebf. She has never had formula. But has had the odd expressed milk feed.
She wakes twice a night for a feed. I appreciate this is normal but lately it's feeling so tough. I also have a 2.7 yo DS with boundless energy. He only started sleeping through aged 2 yrs andhe wakes up at 6am if I am lucky.
I am so tired this morning that my face hurts.
I often hear from ppl that they gave a bottle of formula at bedtime and then their baby slept right through the night.
So
Is this actually true?
Have you done it?
Will I feel guilty?
Should I keep ebf?
Ds didn't ever have formula (apart from the 40 mls he was given in hospital rather than the doctors being bothered to fix his 100% tongue tie and I obviously still feel upset and guilty about) so I feel a bit bad for even considering it.
Sorry if that sounds rude to f. Feeders. I know this is just a choice thing for me.
Wisdom needed please.
