Hello
As some of you may or my not know i made the decsion to start mix feeding a few weeks ago. I'm feeling pretty s**ty about this decision because I enjoy BF so much and only stopped as epressing in college toilets wasn't very much fun. Now that I've started mix feeding they've sorted out a room I can epress comfotabaly in
Anyway, I am just wondering what are the chances of relactating enough to gove him mist of his feeds? I'm currently feeding through the night (which is at around 5/6am) then at about 8am and then not until abot 6pm- he has about three to four 8oz bottles depending on the day (we have no routine and just feed whenever he wants).
What are the chance that I can build my supply back up?
Is it unrealistic considering his age (16 weeks)?
If I do manage to relactate how long would it take to build up my supply?
If it is possible, how do I go about it?
I just feel bad because BF was going so well and we both really enjoyed it ad I just want to be able to feed him mostly myself again because I currentlyfeel like were on the downward spiral into the bottles being favored to the boob
Any help would be very ery apreciated.
