Ds has just turned one and I'm due my second next month. I'll be honest, I've not particularly liked the idea of feeding both at the same time from the start. But although Ds takes a bottle fine for other people, he won't for me and he won't drink formula milk at all. Started trying cows milk now he's one, but he's not taken to that either.
I've spoke to midwife, health visitor and breastfeeding support groups and I know it's ok for the baby to share and the best ways to ensure baby gets what she needs while still feeding Ds.
So practically I'm ok. I really don't like the idea of it though, even feeding him now I'm bigger I feel funny about and then feel terribly guilty for feeling that way. He's still only young and I'd always wanted to feed him until he was ready to stop.
I'm not really sure what I'm asking for, I guess just if anyone had been through the same and how they dealt with it.
He's increased his feeding recently too and I'm worried when I'm feeding the baby he's going to want it all the more. I feel like I just want to completely stop him now, but think that would be cruel and might give him a negative association to his baby sister. Plus I'm not actually sure how I'll stop him, just keep offering a bottle/cup instead while he screams.....
