They said i can try, but usually when diabetic babies r born their blood sugars will drop and will be put to a bottle anyway...once out of the hospital since i already struggle with low blood sugars it dan be dangerous to bf since she will take even more sugar from me..i would have to constantly eat to keep up with her...im not much of an eater the way it is..
That sounds like it would be difficult to manage trying to watch Ella's sugars and keep your own up too. Will she be on a specific formula designed for diabetics? Or just a regular kind?
hi girls there is pink everywhere now lol
oh jelly u didnt offend me honestly lol... my MIL said the same thing to me, you know its better for baby etc etc, but I just told her theres more to it with the diabetes, and keeping my blood sugars up and what happens if I forget a meal etc and she calmed down about it... It doesnt offend me if people say "You should BF" My mother never BF with any of us (i have two brothers as well) and we are all fine (minus my diabetes which was caused by a virus at 15 lol) .... everyone does it their own way... I know two of my close friends tried their hardest to BF and it just wasnt working for them, so they turned to the bottle within a week or two... it also depends on diff situations... so hey whatever floats ur boat!

My MIL told me 'you will be breastfeeding' when I was 8 weeks pregnant!!
I told her I want to and will try my best but hey you just don't know if these things will work out and her response was 'no grandchild of mine will be fed any formula!'.
Hahaha, yeh go on just try and stop me love. Lol
LOVE the cake!!!
