Danni, she cluster feeds in the arvo sometimes, not always though... And I've started giving her a bath every night, wrapping her, feeding her then trying to settle- rocking/ patting/ etc etc... She just seems completely determined to stay awake and if she feels herself drifting to sleep she seems to force herself to wake up! Amazing really!!
Lolpigs, poor thing, I know it must be mentally very difficult to get past the BFding when people aren't supportive- but just remember, that nurse for example hasn't spent time with you and Lilly, and doesn't know what you went through and how much better she feels on formula.. Definitely hasn't been a waste, the last 8 weeks, Lilly wouldve got sooo many good nutrients and immunity from those 8 weeks! You are doing 100% the right thing by your baby by choosing the feeding method that makes her the happiest!!! Your being a fantastic mum and choosing your baby's happiness as a priority and that's the best thing you can do!
Thanks girls, I thought the same thing re trying to top her up with formula too- so I'm glad you shared my thoughts!!!
CK is it you who has the breeze baby sling? I bought one today- the instructions are really confusing!!!
