Introduction not sure if it's needed on this board?

dianeg1017 · December 2014

Hello ladies! I was not sure if an intro is the norm on this board but here goes. My name is Diane I am due in 13days this will be my 2nd kiddo. My DD is now 5 and was formula feed due to a demanding job. This time around I plan on exclusively BFing. Just wanted to intro since I will be new to this and would love any advice. Thanks ladies. Hope to get to know all of you.

No need to intro....this is a pretty welcoming forum! Congrats on the baby on the way. There are many women here who FF their first, but then went on to successfully BF future babies. The main key is to do lots of skin to skin and BF what will feel like all the time the first few weeks. This will ensure a good supply. BF may seem harder in the beginning, but really is a lot easier than FF once you get going. The board is always here for any questions or problems you may encounter. GL!

Welcome! I ff my first 2 kids and am now ebf my 11 week old. It's going to seem hard at first, and you might think about how much easier it would be to just pop a bottle in the babies mouth because you have done it before, but stick with it! It WILL get easier!!
