I'm Currently Feeling:  | I plan to breast feed for 3 or 4 months & then move to bottle. Will probably express milk or have a few formula feeds during that time too if possible so OH can look after him for a little while.
Nobody really influenced my decision. Just seems like the natural thing to do. | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | I don't think I feel comfortable with breast feeding but I'm going to try it. I'll see how it goes when babies here. If I can't do it I won't force myself, neither will I feel bad about it. | | | | Status: Offline
