I was formula fed. My mum tried bf for a week and was told she couldn't bf because she had inverted nipples. When she had my brother they told her not to try, it would be impossible to bf him because she hadnot bf me.

I did lots of research while pregnant with my first baby because I really wanted to feed him. It was difficult as my milk didn't come in til day five and there were other issues. It was very diffficult and I basically hated the experience but had decided to keep going while he was gaining weight. I bf him til he was five months old.

I've been bf this bub for ten months. He's had one ff a day for the past two or so months cos the expressing was driving me mental and I had to cut back.
Lots of things went differently this time around from the birth of my son onward that I belies have made the experience so very different that the first time.
