This morning I sneakily poured three ounces of formula in a bottle and topped it off with three ounces of breast milk.
Avelyn was none the wiser and drank it down completely.
I am relieved that I don’t have to pump every half hour to keep up with her growling tummy, but I have to admit I was a little flattered at her inital rejection of the formula.
It told me she wasn’t ready for something that wasn’t of me.
And that felt kind of nice.

I’m so glad you found a solution that makes you both happy! :)
Yippee!!
Oh, that’s great.
That’s our girl! IT’s tummy over matter. Glad she took it so well, & again you’ve done an awesome job of keeping up the pump!
Hey, that is awesome! Glad to hear something worked. Pumping every 30 mins would have really sucked ;) Keep up the great work!
I’m happy to see the relief in your face now that she’s taken the formula. She is growing beautifully and you are doing such a great job Amanda. I”m loving watching you be a mom.
