Don't feel upset. Pumping is breastfeeding too!
I'm in the same boat, I've introduced formula to my LG today with the Asda own bottles and she seems to have taken to both quite well, pumping hurts a lot for me atm too so formula is the way forward. On the plus side though, she is healthy, and I can see I've done a good job. She's 7 months old, went into 6-9 clothes at 5 months old and has almost outgrown them. A fed baby is a happy baby, regardless of how they're fed, it's going to be better in the long run with swapping as you're both going to be more comfortable and enjoy it more
@Bethany How did you introduce it? I tried giving her a bottle of pumped milk today and she got so upset and completely refused
I just waited until she was almost over hungry and gave it to her, may have jinxed myself though as the two bottles I tried to give her after she turned her nose up to
Bless you!! It’s such a fussy stage but it will be temporary and there are things you can do. A lot of it is to do with latch (as it always is!) if they’re latched properly they won’t be able to bite you and it requires watching them through their entire feed to notice when they move to bite.
