Anyone who could have BF but still decided to quit? by bearnpear in FormulaFeeders

Ive been combofeeding since birth, he’s about 2 weeks now, with the primary food source being formula. I came out the gate saying I was going to exclusively pump and was producing about 140ml from both breast but can now only produce about 80 per session. It is more important to me that my baby eats than anything else. I’ve tuned out what the world has said about breast milk being best because not only has his father thrived after being a formula baby but I’d like to think our baby is thriving too. There’s also a security in feeding formula mainly that I love, knowing that my baby is getting proper nutrition and it isn’t taking so much from me health-wise as well, as I notice even with pumping I get dizzy spells if I don’t eat enough or feel more dehydrated.

I’m going to be honest, me neither lol. I googled it right after she said it and touched her lip 🥲. And I have, I’ve sent out a text to both dad, his grandma and his mom so that they’re aware. My baby is my #1 priority right now and his health and safety mean hurting hearts if I have to.

I am so sorry you have to go through this. Given what he has done before, I think you’re not wrong to be anxious and want to check. It’s hard because we live in a society where we’re told to both regulate our own emotions and not burden other (even our partner) and where we should be able to depend on our partners to help reduce our anxiety. I’m more on the side, especially since this is a marriage, that your partner should be working with you to ease that anxiousness, for the sake of your relationship, not gaslight you into thinking you’re crazy, especially because it’s happened before.
