[quote=Anonymous]OP. You and your baby will do great not breastfeeding. Your dh nees to be supportive of you and your body othwrwise it'll become very hard going forward with everything else you need to decide for the baby. As far as focumla choice, I think ready to feed is recommended for newborns until some weeks and then you can switch to powdered kind (it's less sterile since you have to mix it). The big plus of formula is that anyone can feed the baby. Your dh can take some night feedings and his family can come and feed the baby too on their visits (if that's ok with you) I'm now nursing my second child and while I find it easy and not painful, it's brutal that I'm the only food source and can't wave her side for more than an hour in case she gets hungry (yes I can pump etc but not starting that until I have to). Stop telling people your plan, hang in there in your pregnancy and enjoy the baby when she gets here. [/quote]
