Re: POLL: BF or Bottle

I'm not sure, I always wanted to BF, but now that I'm preggo, I'm not sure. I'll be going back to work after maternity leave and DH will be with the baby from 6AM-2PM, therefore I think bottles would be easier. hmmm, def. gotta think about this one.

You know, i haven't made up my mind yet. Chat Icon

I'd like to pump for the most part and combine formula at night. I'll be going back to work after 3 months, so i need the baby to be used to bottles.

But i keep going back and forth about it. Of course my plans are depending on what happens, which is anyone's guess. You never know if i'll be able to or if it doesn't work out. Chat Icon

I pumped so I could measure exactly what I gave DD and supplemented with formula at night. I will try to do the same this time around as well.

I should probably answer my own poll Chat Icon

I plan to BF, I am hoping I'll be able to pump when I go back to work, but so far no one in my family has been able to pump. I'm really nervous about that one. We'll see what happens.

Breastfeeding until I return back to work then I am going to put her on formula. We plan on trying Similac Advanced depending upon how she likes it. If not we will have to try another formula until we get it right.

Re: POLL: BF or Bottle

I plan on breastfeeding at the beginning, but I'm not sure what I'll do when I go back to work. I'd like to pump, but it may be difficult b/c I travel a few times per week during the day and at night to meet with clients.

Ditto!! I'm so torn on the issue, but I will most likely try it. If it stresses me out I will be converting to formula in a heartbeat!

I'm going to try to pump (but not actually BF). I'll probably try to introduce formula as well, but I have to see how it goes.

Re: POLL: BF or Bottle

I'm going to try to BF... and likely will supplement with formula... I'll be going back to work within 2 months so only BF'ing is nearly impossible since there's no discrete place for me to pump at work Chat Icon
