Leaving the baby
I had a beautiful baby girl about a month ago and am breastfeeding. I love being so connected to her but am ready to go out on my own. How can I go about leaving her when she wants to eat every 2 hours on the dot?

RE:Leaving the baby
I had the same problem. I just left ds for the first time last week… he is only two months. About a month ago I started pumping a little extra and giving him a bottle every now and then before I really needed it. He hated it at first… I tried a few different types of bottles and finally found one that he liked. Someone also told me not to be the one that gives him the bottle. For us it was more the type of nipple that was the problem but you might want to have dh be the one to try.

Definitely keep trying. Dd screamed her head off each time dh or I tried then one day she just sucked it down. It could have to do with their age?

I just want to go out with dh for dinner. It’s hard to be in the house for so long. I know the benefits of bst fdg are huge but it is a big commitment.
