Milk Supply

Hello! I’m a first time mom and I have always been so enthusiastic about breastfeeding KASO I noticed na my milk supply is not enough for my baby. I’m taking M2 and Natalac. I also tried Galacto Bombs. May mga times na more than an hour na nakalatch si baby. Inoobserve ko pag swallow niya if may naiinom ba talaga siya and I know for sure na kulang. I’m currently mix feeding para naman kahit papaano fed si baby kaso my partner does not want me to mix feed kasi mas better daw breastmilk. Aware naman ako dun pero ano gagawin ko kung di talaga sapat yung milk supply ko? Lagi na lang namin pinag-aawayan ‘to. As for me, I don’t mind mix feeding. Kasi nakabreastmilk pa din si baby and I’m confident na busog din siya through formula milk pag lang kulang breastmilk. To be honest, sobra na akong nappressure about breastfeeding. I also feel discriminated sa sinasabi ng ibang tao about me giving formula milk to my baby. Kung sapat naman milk supply ko, di na ako magfoformula eh. Any advice? 😔 #FTM #firsttimemom #firstbaby #pleasehelp #breastfeeding

Hi mommy, i also did mixed feeding, and now, pure formula fed na si baby. I had mild depression after giving birth and i felt tremendous pressure and guilt when i wasn't able to do BF. Pero later on, i decided to just switch to formula because my mental health matters, too. I can take care of my baby better if i am mentally well din. You know what's best for you and your LO, iba iba talaga tayo ng situation and switching to formula doesn't mean you're a bad mom. All the best to you 🩷
