I broke an EBF rule...

in Babies: 0 - 3 Months

and handed her off to DH to give her a bottle.  She has been nursing NONSTOP for three days now, and while I fully recognize that this is clearly a growth spurt and I need to keep nursing to spur the supply she needs....I am about to jump off a roof if I have to sit with her on me for one more minute.

AND I am not pumping while she gets this bottle.  I just want 15 minutes out of my day to NOT be about my breasts.  lol.

    Gah...it is hard to enjoy this break when I hear her fussing so much in the other room.  I have to keep restraining myself from going in and rescuing DH.

    Don't feel bad...it's the breast MILK that is most important.  As far as I am concerned EBF only means no formula supplementations.  I give the pacifier, occassional bottle, and breast... I don't feel bad at all.

    I feel the same. Formula has entered our house has given me back some sanity.
