Hi as a mum who FF i have found there is very limited support or advice. All searches on bottle feeding come up with advice for mums swapping from breast to bottle. just thought i'd start a thread for this reason.

Just because you ff, for whatever reason, doesn't mean that you are free from problems or don't need advice. I have felt judged by some people who bf, i tried but was unable, my ds holds his breath & everytime i tried 2 get him 2 latch on he did this. he lost so much weight we ended up in hospital so i made the decision 2 ff & haven't really looked back. I do now feel guilty & i think a lot of this is to do with the pressure society puts on you 2 bf. i now have a beautiful healthy little boy.

Oooh, good idea. I have ff dd from birth she is 5mo now so I have a bit of experience

I found that loads of people asked me if I was bf when she was newborn - When I said no you could see they werent impressed.
