[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband and I are expecting our first child. I will taking 4 months of maternity leave. I work a job where pumping isn’t possible. I’m deciding if I should breastfeed and switch to formula once I go back to work, or use formula from the start. I’m not even sure if I will be able to breastfeed. Would you breastfeed or use formula? [/quote] Start by breast feeding and at the end of each session offer an a ounce of formula so your baby gets used to the bottle. My 2nd never got used to the bottle and would not use one (even filled with breast milk) when i was gone. Also, you can formula feed during the day, and bf at night. It isn't all or nothing.[/quote]
