Is your LO still EBF?

WhenInRome11 · September 2014

We are currently EBF but we supplemented with formula in the early months due to supply and weight gain issues. So we're a SS.

PinkDahLia44 · September 2014

SS bc there wasn't a good one for ebf until 4 mos, ep until 6 mos, then formula since. He didn't get teeth til 9 mos, so that wasn't it.

I put yes, EBF, but LO has had formula like 3 times. I wanted to see if he'd take it in case I wasn't there to feed him. He refused two times and once had 2oz. I don't really count that as supplementing, though.

SS: 50/50 bf/ff for 4 months, eventually weaned to ff.

psychdoc12 · September 2014

SS: I stopped breastfeeding because I had to have surgery.

Maybe this is pedantic, but no one is EBF anymore unless they haven't introduced solids yet.

This. But that's what I put since I assumed that's what was meant...

I took the piranhas option, but we didn't quit because of teething. My supply was dwindling and Lefty was pretty empty already and I was supplementing a ton, so st the beginning of August I started weaning her. I have like 16 bags of breastmilk that I've been giving here and there.

EBF plus solids.

cassey910 · September 2014

I'm a EPer so he has only had BM and solids.

Chrisanna0508 · September 2014

Yeah, the solids thing came into my mind after I posted it. You really should be able to edit polls.

We just stopped at 11 months due to low supply, now it's FF and some left over BM in the freezer

countingthestars · September 2014

We started out ebf but ended up having to supplement due to supply issues. He stopped wanting to nurse at 4 months. I continued to pump for a month until my supply completely tanked. He has been on formula ever since.

KerCo51 · September 2014

SS - I pumped and supplemented for 10 weeks before I gave up/

sweettooth87 · September 2014

EBF (plus solids, obvs). Lately he nurses more than ever and seems to eat less solids than when he first started eating. He's a boobie monster.

Ditto!

Amjoy25 · September 2014

Poorly posted poll, man. SS. "Unable" to BF, formula since 2 months.

Chrisanna0508 · September 2014

@Amjoy25‌ I am hanging my head in shame

Teresa1489 · September 2014

EPer here, bm plus solids

bkeane619 · September 2014

Formula from birth but I picked SS cuz I don't necessarily think it's "the way to go"

catycate · September 2014

Ebf until 6 months, weaned and formula since but she didn't have teeth until 8 months. I just hated breastfeeding with the passion of one thousand fiery suns.

huntjul · September 2014

solids and BM only still, but i stopped pumping at work a month ago and have been tapping the freezer stash for at-work bottles.

muffyvonmuff · September 2014

Supplemented since 8 months. Down to my last 2 bags of BM in the freezer. Ive also started sneaking in WCM during the day to get him used to it.

emmylou78 · September 2014

I put the piranha one, but I didn't stop bc of that. My supply tanked with AF at 6 months and working.

psychdoc12 · September 2014

I find it so interesting and sort of disappointing in a way that the poll implies that those that stop breastfeeding do so only because they don't want to get bitten. I don't know what that means, exactly, but it doesn't seem good.

skyla13 · September 2014

Sigh. Breastfeeding and supplementing that is quickly turning into 100% formula feeding. Stash is almost gone and supply has tanked. I can't seem to get it back up no matter what I do.

Chrisanna0508 · September 2014

@psychdoc12‌ I am well aware there are lots of reasons people BF or don't BF or stop BFing. This poll was kind of a fail. I was just curious about what the LOs are drinking these days. I was attempting, and apparently failing, to be humorous
