At the baby group I go to breastfeed. I know it doesn't go well for everyone but that just shocked me a bit. And out of the three I was talking to one is about to start giving formula at night to help her baby sleep through.
Now I've always been respectful of antibes decision but I just mentioned that I don't think that is always the case and it depends on the baby. My lo has no formula and sleeps 7-1 ish then awake for ten mins then up again at about 5 for about an hour then up for the day at about 8. He got himself into this pattern.
Point of the post is just a rambling one really. I never judge for peoples decision to ff but as a breast feeder I feel I'm always walking on egg shells so I don't offend anyone who doesn't whilst hearing people belittle breastfeeders comparing them to Nazis and other friends and family trying to get me to give lo formula either for their own selfish reasons or ( just my opinion- don't shoot me) jealousy because they didn't/can't. My hubby is the only 100% supportive person to my breastfeeding.
Just a weird observation/ranting/rambling post
