feeling a little guilty...

NHMountainBride

I went back to work when DD was 3 months old.  I had planned to continue to EBF, but after two weeks of locking myself in a basement bathroom three time per day, and often having to leave important meetings in order to do so, I decided it just wasn't working.  I started supplementing with formula (soy -- seemed to agree with her more), but continued to pump once per day (which usually gets me two 4oz bottles).  She typically gets two bottles of formula per day, and the rest is BM (nurses AM and PM, gets 2 bottles of EBM at daycare).  I've been doing this for almost a month now, and although I initially felt good about my decision, I'm starting to feel a little guilty about not EBF'ing.  Plus, I'm finding that some days I have to give her another bottle of formula before bed because I don't produce enough.  I'm a little worried that my supply is dwindling.  I've vowed to eat oatmeal everyday this week. 

Not really looking for anything...  just needed to share my thoughts.  Thanks for "listening"!
