planned formula milk.

hello! Just wanna ask if any mama's started formula as soon as baby is born? I am a 2nd time mama and planning not to breastfeed my 2nd baby as I really want to spend more time with my first and 2nd born and want to be more attentive to the both of them.... if so, do you feel guilty or what kind of emotions you feel? I mean I am not selfish to not breastfeed correct? :((

Agree. Fed is best. My supply dipped because of mastitis and I decided to stop trying to increase supply. I live with a lot of guilt. Especially when baby has constipation which is usually solved when we thaw frozen BM for her. However, I remind myself of the days I had fever and couldn’t even get out of bed to take care of her.. I think it’s better to spend the time with the baby and practicing tummy time or exercises.. I think there will always be a bit of guilt, but just remind yourself that they are both your babies and you choose what is best for yourself and your babies. :)
