one week in...
So its been one week already and im thinking breastfeeding just isnt for me. I never really was sold on the idea although I know its the best but i wanted to try it to say i tried. Has anyone else switched to formula after a week? or am i just too impatient?

I did with my first one but then I regretted my decision and tried to re-lactate and couldn't. I tried for about 10 days. Maybe give it a little longer if you can cause if you change your mind later, it may be too late. With my second, I was able to breastfeed and then had to supplement cause my supply was horribly low, but I felt better about doing it longer.
I get ya...I have been doing it along with formula even though everyone says that is not good...but I think it holds her over longer. I tries with my 1st...wasn;t able to do it so I thought I would try with this one. She does nurse, but only for about 10-15 monites on each side, sometimes shorter and I know she is getting milk as it is all over her lips...but she just sin;t satisfied with just that. I figure it can't hurt to keep trying but she does drink about 2-3 oz of formula...
