[quote=Anonymous]I have a 3 month old who had trouble gaining issues the first month while being EBF. I made the tough decision to exclusively pump + supplement instead of nursing to better ensure that baby was getting ample nutrition. Baby has gained very well and the pediatrician is no longer concerned with growth. She has given the go ahead to resume nursing, but he has refused to nurse. We have been trying for the better part of two weeks and he mostly refuses to nurse. He will either flat out refuse to eat after a couple of minutes or just scream. My only choices are to keep pumping or switch to formula. I'm using a high quality, organic formula, but my hope was to give breastmilk for 6 months. I do have a freezer stash but not enough for the next 3 months. If you were in my shoes, would you continue to pump or switch to formula? [/quote]
