fed is best

Life

When the doctor said my baby needed to gain weight, we supplemented with formula

I had my heart set on exclusively breastfeeding, but as I've now seen, I know it's not the only "right" way to feed your little one.

It’s okay if breastfeeding doesn’t work out, mama

All that matters is that baby gets fed. It doesn't matter how that happens.

Life

My breastfeeding journey taught me that fed really is best

I'd been conditioned to think that since I was a woman, breastfeeding would be the most natural thing I've ever done. I forgot in all of this that all humans are different and that's part of the beauty of life.

Life

I wanted to breastfeed but felt relief that formula was an option, too

Formula isn't the enemy and in fact, I'm thankful that we have had it as an option. It has allowed me to take a little pressure off myself.
