Getting me excited for when my wife and I decide to have our first, which we plan to start trying soon. She just grabbed some new bikinis for this summer so thinking I might bump it up on the time line.
Lol! We are currently in the process of getting her in the position to be stay at home. Not trying to send the future patriot to an indoctrination center.
take your weening decision (6mo,9mo,12mo,kid has a beard)and take your baby growing time with 2 months of play for having fun making it and subtract that from peak bikini summer.
My wife was unable to breastfeed as she didn't produce enough, then we tried formula and my son was allergic to it, eventually we had to use soy formula as it was the only thing he could hold down. It was a scary first few months with him struggling but he's 6 now and eating us out of house and home.
Lol naw he's already a mad lad at 6, he's a tough little shit who loves his tractors, and playing in the mud. I see why you'd think that though I had reservations about using soy for exactly that reason but it was soy or bury my son so picked the option that kept him alive.
Thank you, I made it a point to expose both my sons to real men and anyone I used to know before they were born that's not a masculine man they've never met.
So, soy lowers testosterone levels, but there are ways to increase it like a good diet and exercise. Make sure your kid learns to work out and they'll probably be fine.
Also, the real key is to:
Watch who they hang out with (birds of a feather).
Make sure they see people you respect getting respect.
Kids tend to orient themselves towards people who are shown respect. It's why the libs took over the Oscars and whatnot and are trying to make it so that only degenerates appear to be respected. It's part of how they're grooming your kids.
Me and my brothers are raising him up to be an honorable man with strong values and a fascination with trades, he's got toy tools, tractors, shit like that.
Good, take care of him. Make sure he works out a bit, though, just in case, if you're not already doing that. Even without any such worries as turning out bad, it'll make him stronger & healthier.
Soy milk is great for anyone who's lactose intolerant. I've had a couple times in my life where whole cow's milk was messing with me for some reason, so I either had to stop milk all together or try the soy stuff, just be glad that some alternative exists! Milk is one way I've always kept up with my calcium needs.
Had to stop all dairy temporarily (and some other foods). Tried all the normal replacements. Of soy, rice and almond milk, rice is the best and soy is the worst.
But goat’s milk is far superior to everything else. It doesn’t taste exactly like cow’s but if it’s from a good dairy where they feed their goats well, imho it tastes as goods as cow’s. And it saved my morning coffee, lol. Goat’s milk actually made better cappuccino froth than cow’s milk too.
Everyone likes to demonize soy. Soy is a fucking great protein.
But it should be damn far from your only protein. These fuckers with problems eat soy all day and night. Manufacturers put it in everything, just like corn.
Eat cheap processed food to excess, and you get problems.
My first almost died of dehydration a couple days after we went home from the hospital because they were pushing so hard to breast feed and my wife couldn't produce. We still managed to do about 3 months and then 4 with the second, but we always had to supplement with formula. The whole process and lack of production made my wife miserable. Then once she got her period it was game over both times.
Our little one still has a few months left of formula, I can't stand having to buy the stuff, but nothing you can do.
My wife was also miserable over the whole thing, she went manic there for awhile and I was basically solo raising him there for a month or so with no clue what I was doing. All in all everything got better.
I know the feeling brother. My son is 6.5 months and he demands a ton of milk that my wife can’t produce. We started him on puréed food at like 4 months but he still wants milk every 3 hours so we supplement with formula.
People used to use goat's milk for allergens, one of ours used to sick up normal milk which was worrying. I don't trust formulas, they're full of stuff that shouldn't be in breast milk. But then covid vaccine spike proteins shouldn't be in breast milk either.
eventually we had to use soy formula as it was the only thing he could hold down.
Same exact situation. Baby was a premie, wife couldn't do it, and we had to use incredibly expensive formula. It was close to $50/box when regular formula was $20.
Side note, a woman once made a breastfeeding comment in a passive-aggressive way toward me in a store when I had formula when I hadn't slept for a while, and it was the first time I ever lost my cool, said "How about FUCK YOU" to a stranger and stared at her in a way which made her move quickly away, scared.
It's not the hard thing I'm worried about, it's for those rare occasions where the women physically can't for whatever reason, we're going to fucking starve babies in America in 2022?
Unfortunately it's not rare, 70% of women use formula to some extent and everyone I know that does started out with the best intentions to breastfeed. IMO lack of production is a public health crisis that will never get attention because the alternative (costly formula, weakened population) is too good for the powers that be.
My wife had no problem with the first three kids, but got the fourth the one it wasn't working. I was starting to get pissed off at the rediculous pressure they were putting on my her. They kept telling her to keep going and trying all while my kid wasn't getting enough nutrition... she tried, but I had enough of them making her feel like shit so I stepped in with the formula.
No caring mother will allow their child to die, bullshit! Free formula for many, MANY, years, you can get donated breast milk if you want, so fuck your argument
It’s hurts and your husband hates you for 6 plus months cause your tits are sore and it’s fucking weird, don’t put your lips here.... it gets better with time and things regulate, unless you’re a creep-o, this is honestly the truth 👍
Pumping makes your boobs so big and too fast, but sometimes the flow is so fast you have to get rid of it, engorged boobs hurt so much, that is the weaning phase
4 kids totally destroyed my wife's tits... So I bought her new ones. Had to realign the nips and everything. She is awesome for giving our children the proper nutrition. I still always got up to do a diaper change, but it was easier for me, so worth it.
Some women are unable to breast feed due to many legit medical or physiological reasons. Some babies are unable to latch/ feed. I myself experienced this. Trust me, I did not want to spend money on formula but I had no choice.
Comments making jokes are at the top of the thread, but this is no joke, it is a very serious problem.
I have a 6 month old baby, we keep switching formulas because the one we used previously is no longer available. We are now on the 4th different formula (the only one in the store last time my wife went). Luckily, my baby is not picky.
WalMart, Target are not shipping formula right now due to shortages, you need to buy in store. And when you check online for what stores in stock, there is almost nothing available in a 50 mile drive.
This is some serious shit, and no one is talking about it
To all the men saying formula feeding is for lazy mothers and a convenience, I couldn't breastfeed because I had to be on a bunch of medications that would pass through my milk. Let me tell you something. Breastfeeding would have been so much easier than having to constantly clean, sterilize and heat up bottles around the clock. It would have been much easier to have whipped my tits out on demand and have it all ready. It is way more work to formula feed then breastfeed imo.
Whether it is a majority or not is irrelevant, there is a very significant amount of women who do not produce, and most preemies are not strong enough to breastfeed and once they start with a bottle, it is hard to switch.
Likely so they can toil, and slave away for a faceless unappreciative corporation as they allow, and even pay good money to strangers to raise(subvert) their children while also flooding the market with extra workers that stifle, and lower wages across the board. Another irreparable consequence/effect of the Bolshevik created, and enabled feminism, and stronk woman syndrome. YAY for “progress”.😞
Women typically over 35 that give birth find they do not produce enough milk and as the older they get the less they produce. Get your baby formula HIPP. We used this because of that. THIS is the best out there if you cannot breastfeed: https://organicsbestshop.com/collections/hipp-formula
Yes I don't think alot of those commenters understand it's not easy for every woman some have issues. And it's really sad for the ones that want to. It devistates them and makes them feel like they are failures.
Totally. But new moms especially will blame themselves and take it really hard. It was hard for my wife at first to feed my son she was close to giving up. Her mom was convincing her to just use formula but she never gave up God bless her. I would drive her to lactation classes at the hospital. (I didn't get to come inside the milking room unfortunately) they did it in a group. I would just sit in the waiting room. And she'd be so exhausted from it, she'd sometimes fall asleep in there.
Breastfeeding is a supply/demand thing... many babies that aren't nursing well have an undiagnosed palate issue. Closed cleft palates, etc. That reduces the amount they ingest, which causes mother's production to lessen. A tell-tale sign is baby squirting milk out its nose. Another sign that appears later is the inability for baby to make certain sounds that involve the soft palate. That shows a suction issue going on. Nipple shields can help alleviate that problem. Nursing can be successful even with this issue.
The figure is actually 'less than 5%' and yes 100% there is a way to get at least colostrum into all children.
How much human breast milk is used in the body building scene, colostrum especially?
The problem lies with attitude.
I went through all this study about 6 years ago.
When the (concocted) measles epidemic that was a lead in to the Covid scam was a thing... It started in my home city (Christchurch, a globalist cumdumpster for obvious reasons)
The discussion on vaccines and formula was a fucking joke.
It was actually the conservative side of the aisle being the fuckwits that were stating that vaccines are awesome, that I would be depriving my child if I did not vaccinate and that formula feeding was EQUALLY as good as breast milk.
Yes it was the conservatives, the left were the anti-vaxxers at that point...
The tide has certainly changed.
Breast milk composition changes to the needs of the baby. The mums that do not produce, will in most cases have other issues that could be dealt with first, if academia and science was not asshoe.
All those stats rely on a single, "study" that does not have much data. Their are a lot fo factors in breastfeeding including babies who do not latch, preemeis that are to weak to breastfeed etc.
I think it’s way less than that who actually can’t , but we’ll probably never know because the stats are incredibly skewed by the exact types you’ve described. Even then, most, NOT ALL, of the ones who can’t have themselves to thank do to poor health/lifestyle choices that are easily controllable IMHO.
You don't think allergies in babies, have something to do with lifestyle choices of the mother?
I'll add 'anti bacterial cleaners', drugs, alcohol, fake food, fake drinks and bug spray to the list of degenerate behavior leading to child disabilities.
I know people that used none of those things and their children were still allergic to breast milk. They weren’t allergic to things specific to their mothers milk they were allergic to the protiens. My parents sure as hell didn’t either and I have allergies.
Yeah, most people (even here) have gotten used to the boiling pot they're in. The modern health issues so many people are experiencing weren't common for most of human history. Babies don't just develop allergies to the one thing they're evolved to consume for the first year or more of their life. Women don't just miraculously develop problems breastfeeding, the one thing their bodies are designed to do after they give birth.
There are modern causes for our problems and people are too lazy to research the causes for them beyond what the mainstream media and medical communities say. The entire system is corrupt from top to bottom. Our food supply is fucked. Our water supply is fucked. Our medical system is fucked. Our colleges are fucked. Fortunately, there's a healthy community of people online that are looking into these problems themselves, looking for solutions themselves, and testing and solving them themselves, which usually involves reverting back to what worked, growing their own food as much as possible, and detaching from the poisons and lies of the modern world. I've been slowly researching this stuff for the last 8 or so years, and I still have a lot to learn, but I have a good foundation to make decisions off of. Hell, I could make a safe assumption that breastfeeding problems are contributed by the fact that most women pursue careers first rather than making families, are having their first child way too late (late 20s or early 30s), which is causing tons of complications for the mother, the child, pregnancy, breastfeeding, mental health problems, birth defects, and so on.
The modern world is wrong, and it's causing a ton of problems. Jump out of the pot. We're being boiled alive.
Interesting fact the American Medical Association used to advocate for formula feeding, claiming it is healthier, around 1970, they did a complete 180.
What changed? You used to have to buy formula from your Dr.. The Dr. made money off of it. Once they were allowed to sell it in stores, and Dr's couldn't make money off of it, they changed their stance on it
My wife breastfed for 6 months and then stopped producing milk. We had to use formula to get us through the next 6 months. Sometimes shit happens and breastfeeding isn't an option...
Yes, people in the comments of the article were saying the same thing. Here's an interesting solution one person's mom came up with for their brother:
My mom started bottle-feeding my brother after only a few weeks (I do not know the reason why). Didn't have money for baby formula. Just used whole milk with some rice cereal mixed in. And this was in a world before microwave ovens existed to quickly and easily heat up a bottle.
breast milk has a huge positive impact on infant immune system. glad everything well for your family, but in general its very important and nutrition based solutions are no substitute
The most important thing is the colostrum in the first few days.
Having worked at the dairy farm a few seasons, I can assure that the calves that did not get any colostrum, were either dead or put down within a couple of weeks. This that got just colostrum and not much milk before moving to formula... were (seemingly) just as healthy as the rest.
Women need to look after themselves when they are pregnant, men need to look after them too. Ensure their unhinged requests are not outrageous and the interaction between father and mother during pregnancy is as important for development, as the interaction shortly thereafter.
Yep. I saw a woman panhandling recently with a sign that had a sob story about needing formula. I told her "I know you know that you can get baby formula for free". They don't let you leave the hospital without knowing that.
Our WIC is handed out through our Kroger now. (Like on a EBT type card able to purchase) And the baby formula has been empty for about 2 weeks that I know of. I have no idea what the young parents are doing, but it’s horrifying. Even the toddler milk and goat’s milk is gone in the dry milk section.
You don't because the anchor babies qualify, but the income level to get WIC is very low, you have to be either homeless, or an illegal immigrant who gets paid in cash to qualify
Well yeah, back then when a woman couldn’t produce milk for whatever reason, there were milk maids or wet nurses I believe they called them. If none were available, they’d just supplement with cows milk, and more than likely it was unpasteurized. I’m sure they all ended up fine.
Same here. I think she got 3-4 months in before they just turned off. Finding out our little bear is lactose intolerant made it really fucking hard to track down his specialty stuff.
White babies should not spontaneously become lactose intolerant, rejecting the one and only thing they evolved to rely on for the first year or more of their life. This has to be a new problem caused by the poisons in our environment.
THIS! My wife fought tooth and nail to feed our children for at least a full year. Knowing her struggle to do what is undoubtedly the best possible thing for our children, it's so pathetic to watch women selfishly not want to be inconvenienced.
Congrats to those women who did best what God put them on this earth to do best!
It's something a man or a bottle of formula will NEVER be better at. (unlike women's sports)
Extremely concerning, have a 6 month old at home, we switched formulas 4 times because the one we used went out of stock. Walmart Target won't ship because of low stock, the shelves are almost empty in stores
I am mixed on this. Way too many friends have felt miserable that they cannot provide breast milk for their babies because their bodies just dont produce enough or any at all. So in those cases, it is necessary or the baby starves, and we don’t want that.
But for those who are perfectly capable and choose not to for whatever (usually selfish) reason, I do not understand that.
Not necessarily. I take zero drugs whatsoever and no lactation consultant EVER found out that my babies had a weird anterior tongue tie until my FIFTH baby. And this was after she had been on bottle/pumped breast milk so she’d never get back on the breast (and believe me I tried and tried and tried).
I wish it was so simple. They try and act like they’re here to help you but they aren’t, the help isn’t really there and especially if you aren’t rich. This costs a lot of money and my husband spared no expense but even with all that she had to be fully on formula by 6 months. Nothing whatsoever to do with drugs but it surely is another example of how shitty women (oh excuse me, BIRTHING PEOPLE) get treated in some cases.
Were you vaccinated? Do you eat lots of processed foods? Do you eat lots of wheat or wheat products (which are laced with glyphosate)? Do you soak your veggies with baking soda for at least 15 minutes to remove pesticides and herbicides? Do you consume more carbs and sugars than meat, fats, and veggies? Do you drink fluoridated tap water or fluoridated drinks? Do you drink or eat substances that you can't remove the toxins from? Do you eat only naturally raised animal products (meat, fat, milk, and eggs), meaning they grazed openly and naturally in the sun, without antibiotics, hormones, or vaccinations? Do you eat foods and drink out of plastic containers which leach into your food and drink? Do you use cosmetics, lotions, and soaps containing parabens and phthalates (plasticizers)? Do you know what other harmful chemicals are in the products you use? Do you get enough sunlight, vitamins and minerals, and exercise?
All of these things can and are contributing to tons of negative health effects.
Yea it’s really not that simple. Lactation consultants cam at best show you how and give you tips, at the end of the day not every women is capable. I did everything by the book. EVERYTHING. My body continually got infections. Some women dry up for no reason at all. There are soooo many complications that no one wants to talk about because for some it’s so easy and after a few weeks or months it just works. This never happened for me, and I gave it my all for two kids. They ended up formula fed after 4 months. I would never judge a mom who HAD to throw the towel in because I’ve been there.
My experience was similar. After a cascade of problems, I ended up in the hospital with severe mastitis. Just because breastfeeding is natural does not mean that it is easy. I had to stop for my own health and it broke my heart.
I had mastitis too. Unbelievably awful. I was lucky I knew exactly what it was and got to urgent care immediately. Then my baby got it too, yes apparently babies can get it. How the hell it happens I have no idea but he got it. I suffered with five kids and tried to breastfeed all of them. I beat myself up even now over my failure. I NEVER cry, ever, but I cried ten oceans of tears over my failure.
Oh I remember the tears too. I’ve never cried so much in my life. It’s been many years since my boys were babies but it still makes me sad to talk about. It’s completely normal I think to mourn the loss of something so special that you wanted to give your children.
Try not to beat yourself up too much though. You tried FIVE times! You’re obviously a good mom who wants the best for your kids. There’s so much that you can and will give your kids and they’re fortunate to have you.
Some of the dipshits commenting on here, that know jackshit about this are getting really annoying. Aside for women who can't nurse, and there are many. there are also many babies that can not nurse, for a variety of reasons
There are also mothers like me who worked through all the difficulties and nursed five children for a year each. It’s not easy. I wanted to throw in the towel time after time but I didn’t.
I know a lot about breastfeeding and I think there are a lot of excuses being made.
100 years ago babies didn’t live if mothers didn’t successfully nurse. Nowadays 80% “just can’t” but “don’t you dare judge”. Something screwy is going on.
In the past they used cow milk, condensed milk, goats milk, wet nurses. In fact variations of “formula” have been around since the mid 1800s in America. This isn’t some new invention of the democratic left to make a buck. Breast milk of course is better but it’s not always the option and thank God these days it’s not a death sentence for babies.
Seethe harder faggot. If you cant feed your babies dont have them. Dont piss and moan cuz the government cant provide your babies food for you. That's your job and you are a failure. Cope harder.
Not every lactation consultant knows what they're saying either. I visited 4 different ones and NONE of them could help me. I tried pumping and that was miserable and barely made an ounce. The problem was an undiagnosed Thrush infection because it did not present the typical way. How do I know? I put 2 and 2 together when I researched more but by then I could no longer produce milk. I could barely hold my baby without intense, burning pain in my chest. I hated myself for being unable to do the only other thing my body was made to do.
Makes you wonder how many babies died back in the day due to an inability to thrive. In our family, I 've seen every issue come up. One child had an upper lip issue which prevented her from latching so they did a quick in-office fix for that. Another one did fine on breast feeding and pumped milk, and another one was allergic to everything.
Seriously. I think wet nurses were pretty common back in the day when there weren’t alternative options to breast milk that will at least keep the baby alive and somewhat thriving. Our ancestors probably had a more communal approach. And I would bet their parts worked a lot better because they had natural diets and not this processed garbage that we basically cannot avoid no matter how hard we try.
Your friends should contact an IBCLC. The vast, vast majority of women can produce an excess of milk. There are a myriad of reasons why it doesn't happen for some, but it can be worked out often very easily.
The folks at the hospital are also generally under equipped in that area of knowledge as well and wind up making things worse.
100 years ago babies would have died if their mothers failed to nurse them. Now more than half of mothers will tell you that they “tried everything, but they just couldn’t nurse.” There’s no way the percentage of women who physically can’t nurse shot up that much in that time period.
Something screwy is going on. There are way too many excuses. There is a lot of poor medical advice and not enough lactation support. Women working as much as they do is definitely a big piece of the problem, but not all of it. It’s definitely hurting our babies. Breastfeeding is by far healthier for them.
I agree, somwthing screwy is going on because it should not be so damned impossible to breastfeed. There is just zero to very few knowledgeable breastfeeding support around and doctors are no longer trustworthy.
I think diet is where it all leads back to and how poisoned our natural environment currently is makes a big difference.
How the hell do supposedly certified IBCLC lactation support not know what thrush is??? That was my issue that I ended up solving on my own but unfortunately way too late to keep breastfeeding. Pumping is a whole other evil beast that not every woman can successfully use.
A lot of that is bullshit and carried over from ignorant doctors in the 70’s/80’s when formula became heavily marketed. Reps would bring some donuts in for the doctors and tell them bullshit about how kids needed supplementation. The issue is that supplementation dries up the mother and relegated them to formula.
If you aren’t producing enough- find a good lactation consultant. They’ll tel you most all mothers supplies can be saved until a few weeks of poor practice (forget how many). Feed and pump - whatever you have to do to stimulate production.
I bet in the old days, husbands would suck their wife’s tits to increase production like real men.
Downvotes are flowing quite liberally for anyone who suggests breastfeeding is better than the GMO soy. Some butthurt wahmen in denial on this thread who just don't want to be inconvenienced.
its scientifically proven breast milk will change to meet the needs of the child. formula is an alternative sure, but breastfeeding should always be tried first repeatedly.
My wife is 31 on our 2nd child. She produces so much milk that she has to pump it out and store it in our freezer. We are running out of space. This is not to brag. We are both vax-free. We are healthy and eat mostly organic and non-gmo. Dm me if you're interested in natural vs formula.
That all makes sense, but I also wonder if her having her first child at a younger age also helped on top of everything else you listed. What age did she have her first?
That’s still a healthy age to have your first in order to help avoid problems if you decide to have another even deep into your thirties from my understanding, and layman research on the subject. God bless, and good luck with the new baby.
Please don’t make her feel bad. I guarantee she agonizes over it constantly. Tell her you love her and that she is doing great. Help her out as best you can. Women act really weird after having a baby. I’m sure she feels like a failure and is beating herself up internally. If it was possible I’d talk to her, I’ve been there myself and I get it. It’s so hard, support her please.
Baby formula is a scam and almost pure soy. The vast majority of mothers can breastfeed successfully, and there are plenty of resources available to help those in need.
Search "IBCLC in my area" if you know a new or expecting mom that needs help.
EDIT: Also, breastfeeding is the easiest way to assist in losing baby weight. An added bonus!
Double Edit: For the angry ladies downvoting me, nobody is blaming you. Often times the child is the problem. Undiagnosed tongue ties, over-diagnosed tongue ties, suction problems, jaw muscle issues... this is why I advocate to contact an expert that knows what they're doing. It's a unique situation every single time, and unique expertise is needed. But if your body can produce a baby the chances of you being able to produce milk is obviously very, very high. There may be hurdles though in many shapes and sizes.
Thanks. I just don’t know about the vast majority part. About 1/3 of our friends who have conceived over the last couple years had issues with breast milk supply and have either had to go total formula or supplement with formula in a big way. I wonder if its our shitty diets.
I have breastfeed 2 kids both to 1 years old. Most moms I talk with 'supply' issues just don't get the correct information. EBF is hard for the first couple of month. There will be pain until your nipples toughen up. When that happens your baby grows teeth and starts to bite. Most doctors have no idea how to help or give you wrong information. Doctors are against cosleeping which is a lifesaver if you have a light sleeping ot fussy baby. I found the subreddit breastfeeding a god sent. There are breastfeeding support group in person. But who has the time for that. I barely can keep my house clean with a husband, 2 kids and a dog.
It's a myriad of issues, but an IBCLC is a breastfeeding expert and most of them are based as fuck. I've only seen one or two situations over the years where a mom can't produce at least half of the baby's needed supply.
Definitely give them a shot before switching solely to formula unless you have stock in Nestle.
It’s not their diets- it’s bad doctors and nurses, not trying to make it work. Not being able to produce, with baby and pump stimulation, would be rare although I can’t give you a percentage, it’s much lower than a 1/3.
Some people just didn’t really try and may say they tried everything to save some face. However, most probably didn’t get proper care.
The worst is the friends that get their boobs taped up immediately. Its a pretty disgusting act as a mother if you ask me and my wife- but I realize I say that without tits and breastfeeding is a HUGE commitment and often struggle. Hell breastfeeding can keep your hormones fucked up and cause post pardon- been there. But my wife gutted it out. I respect the hell out of her even though it was hell for us both for full year.
Losing baby weight is a yes and no kind of thing. You need to eat a lot of calories to maintain a good supply. Specially during the first 6-8 weeks when your supply is regulating. Breastfeeding is hard but worth it. The weight will natural come off but it is very slow.
I've noticed too many moms give up too soon on the breastfeeding thing. If I wasn't so persistent my wife would have given up on week 2. I think I found only 1 formula that either didn't have soy or didn't have corn syrup so I made sure we tried everything. After that she produced too much for the freezer space.
American Formula sucks. European formula such as Loulouka, Hipp, Holle are amazing. But now the FDA has cracked down on that ans they banned its import as of August
That was a liberal thing not more than ten years ago open breast feeding in public, nobody had a problem with it except the news media of course, as always the real enemy of a free republic.
I don’t mean to cast judgement on people who use formula but my observation is that breast fed children seem to have much better temperament, behaviour and they seem healthier body fat wise.
My son was mainly on formula cause my gf couldn’t really breastfeed, she couldn’t keep up with how much he was eating and he is really well behaved. People are surprised with how advance he is for 2 years old. 🤷♀️
Not true. My cousin had a baby, had her period the whole time, didn’t know she was pregnant, was normal weight, saw her two weeks before she had the baby, could not tell at all. She’s a normal person, married, great mom and wife….baby is like 13 I think now? Totally fine, normal, smart kid. It’s rare but it happens.
Maybe because the impact that has is a huge wake up call. Especially to young and stupid people who aren't politically aware. Even if you don't use it you know a bunch of people really depend on it. Especially moms who can't breastfeed.
If any new parent pedes have trouble finding formula at the store I have a whole bunch of Enfamil that WIC gave us and we didn't ever need it because my son is breastfed.
To anyone with babies who can’t breastfeed I have some advice for you. Find a local goat farm and buy their raw milk for your child. The protein chain in goats milk is similar to breast milk and your children will love it. All of my kids and nieces and nephews were raised on raw goats milk. NOT PASTEURIZED. It has to be raw. No your kid won’t get diseases. No your kid won’t get sick. It’s an amazing substitute for breast milk. Don’t forget to warm it up! It’s 10x better for your baby than formula. Maybe 100x.
I breastfed my 2 kids. The first one for 12 months the 2nd for 18. It's almost impossible to do and hold a job. You produce based on how much the baby nurses. Pumping is a pain. I cried A LOT with baby number one. Becoming a mother in general breaks down everything you used to be. You are giving up yourself for this child. You lose so much sleep and everyone just wants to help you, they don't know that 1 bottle can lead a mother down a path they didn't even plan it. You just wanted that weekend with the husband and didn't want to wait til baby was done ... you ruined all chances of nursing for that . (Unless you pump every few hours the whole time you are gone). 2nd baby was a breeze. One of the hardest things I've ever done and stuck out. I've never been prouder of myself either
I feel your pain and triumph. #1 self-weaned at 14 months. #2 weaned at 26 months, and #3 at about 3 and half years. I had a better handle from the jump because I watched my mom nurse 3 of my brothers. Most women have never seen a nursing mother before, and nurses and obs/peds are not trained in the art either. The most valuable tips I received were to nurse on demand, pumping is not an indicator of supply, and a floppy breast is a functioning breast. I exclusively breastfed all 3 kids until after 6 months, and yet couldn't pump more than a 1/4 oz in a sitting. All three kids were consistently above the 50th percentile in weight and #3 was always over the 90th. I guarantee at least 75% of the "can'ts", are being misled by a health care provider.
I remember seeing my aunt nursing my cousin and thinking how weird it was as a kid. Up until I gave birth, I wasn't sure about breastfeeding and if it was something I would do. My hospital pushed me to give it a try. One time I broke down and made a bottle of formula, my baby refused it like it was poison. I tasted it and it was so gross. Became a total naturalist after that. Started looking up the positives of breastfeeding while I was up at all hours of the night. Felt like a super human with what was happening in my body .
When I was growing up, there was no such thing as baby formula. Babies were either Breast fed, or we're given regular milk. And they grew up just fine.
How old are you? Infant formula was pretty popular by the 1920s in America. And by the 60s. Breastfeeding was most unpopular with only 25% of mother's breastfeeding by that time.
I am 259 years old. Don't ever question a man as old as me. I have forgotten more things in my long life then you will ever know in your young life. 😁😎😂
None. Butt I did vote for President Trump twice. Once in 2016. And again in 2020. And if I make it to 2024, I will vote for President Trump a third time.
There are a bunch of women on Facebook in my area volunteering their breast milk stash to families in need. Several women were working on increasing their milk supply and most said fuck it I'll feed the baby straight from the tap.
Someone also posted an old recipe card for formula:
13 ounces PET evaporated milk
20 ounces water
2 level tablespoons of Karo
I dunno. I just did a search online and I was able to add a thousand dollars worth of formula to my cart and checkout from Amazon. Just because a shelf is empty in a store doesn't necessarily mean a shortage. Could just be a temporary surge of purchases in that area. The article also mentions a major recall, so that is going to temporarily affect supply as well. With Biden and Dems in charge everything being less available and more expensive to some degree is a given, but to call in a shortage seems a bit hyperbolic.
But if there is a shortage my wife has a few extra gallons frozen from what our son didn't eat if anyone wants to buy.
The Abbott recall was a huge hit to this, as they were the largest marketshare and this "voluntary" recall was out of fear of liabilities and lawsuit damages they'd have to pay if they went to court. I have sources that work out of the Abbott offices and they have literally no supply. It takes time to rebuild that volume and inventory with most products coming out of one main manufacturing location - anything that does get delivered will be purchased almost immediately.
Hunger is the oldest trick in the book for dictators. I just don't think these faggot arealize if it actually comes to it I'd kill them and their family to ensure mine survives.
I wouldn't hesitate if it were may family on the line. Why? Because the mother fuckers in power caused this.
I think this type of thing will be ramping up soon. I pray I am wrong.
Nursing can be very hard, more need to embrace pumping if latching doesn’t work. It can be a pain, but I was able to breastfeed our baby for a full year and have a full upright freezer full of milk. Also good to have extra if a friend needs it for their baby. Nothing against formula, it saves lives, but breast milk is super easy on the tummy.
Both of my sons, now in their 50's were not satisfied with formula or breast within a couple of weeks of birth. The pediatrician told me to start giving them whole milk with a little bit of light Karo Syrup. The syrup was to keep their stools soft. He also told me to start giving them Rice baby cereal, and a baby fruit that wouldn't give them gas. Both sons managed to survive their infancy without formula, and have lived to be over half-a-century old. Also, my mother told me a cure for a baby's hiccups, was to boil water, and put a little sugar in it, in a baby bottle. Didn't kill either kid.
Not every mother can breastfeed. I wanted to breastfeed, but I was not allowed to because I have to be on cocktail of lifetime medications that I cannot stop taking. If my adult children were babies now during this shortage, I would be scared shitless. When my children were babies, my doctor said the medications could pass through my breast milk and would make my babies ill. Not all women that formula feed are selfish, ghetto trash.
Mommy milk is so much better. I saw a study about feeding your little boy formula is the same as giving him 1 birth control pill a day. And you wonder where the soy boys are coming from. Do what God made us to do.
Great advice. We have been lucky to be able to provide for our first with Breast Milk for an entire year, fingers crossed we can replicate that for our second!
Spent about 6 years of my life breastfeeding, two of my kids were 6 weeks premature. Feeding my babies was really hard at first, but got easier every day, where there’s milk and determination, there is a way. Too many women give up at the beginning because it’s hard. Formula should only be used as a last resort.
My body my choice… if the babies had a voice they’d never choose formula.
There is the "old fashioned" way... Just saying
Right, there are cases where formula is legit needed. Selfish women who don't want the inconvenience are making it harder to find for them.
Yup, I know women who didn't breast feed because they said it would ruin their tits.
I asked them if their husbands care.
They look at me and ask, "Husband?"
My wife breast fed and after two kids her tits better than before!
They sure don’t get smaller, and them nipples…. I appreciate em is all I’m saying.
Insert “nodding guy” meme here! :-)
Plus look up recent reports on baby formula and how some of it is actually borderline long term poison to fuck up kids health and mind.
If the government recommends it it is surely poison!
Look up the Chinese melamine scandal.
In some cases it is poison.
Natural is best.
Baby formula, vaccines, anything “FDA approved” is pretty much crap.
Babies Fed Soy-based Formula Have Changes in Reproductive System Tissues
https://www.chop.edu/news/babies-fed-soy-based-formula-have-changes-reproductive-system-tissues
This
My wife from a c to a DD. Thanks kiddo's!
Double Ds are too much for one man. Can I have one? I promise to take care of it, and treat it right.
Two words: in covfefe
DD too big? Are you a fag?
Only on the weekends after dark. 😉
Can confirm. Still bigger and better years later.
plus when theyre weaning yeah cant touch much but makes for a fantastic distraction in the summer.
Getting me excited for when my wife and I decide to have our first, which we plan to start trying soon. She just grabbed some new bikinis for this summer so thinking I might bump it up on the time line.
Stop being a sissy and bust in her!
Lol! We are currently in the process of getting her in the position to be stay at home. Not trying to send the future patriot to an indoctrination center.
take your weening decision (6mo,9mo,12mo,kid has a beard)and take your baby growing time with 2 months of play for having fun making it and subtract that from peak bikini summer.
I do this math but with hunting seasons
I am OK with moms breastfeeding everywhere in public, but trannys tend to bother women that do..
Yup, they are.
My wife was unable to breastfeed as she didn't produce enough, then we tried formula and my son was allergic to it, eventually we had to use soy formula as it was the only thing he could hold down. It was a scary first few months with him struggling but he's 6 now and eating us out of house and home.
he will go on to get a liberal arts degree in Ugandan interpretive dancing
Lol naw he's already a mad lad at 6, he's a tough little shit who loves his tractors, and playing in the mud. I see why you'd think that though I had reservations about using soy for exactly that reason but it was soy or bury my son so picked the option that kept him alive.
Good dad
Thank you, I made it a point to expose both my sons to real men and anyone I used to know before they were born that's not a masculine man they've never met.
I would not dare to tell you how to raise your child but making him drive a tractor has to violate some kind of child labor law
Not to shamelessly steal something from Twatter, but:
Minecraft taught us that abolishing child labor was wrong. The children yearn for the mines.
It's just predawn until 8 am.. and besides..them taters ain't gonna plant themselves!!!
Nothing but lard and butter from now on
So, soy lowers testosterone levels, but there are ways to increase it like a good diet and exercise. Make sure your kid learns to work out and they'll probably be fine.
Also, the real key is to:
Kids tend to orient themselves towards people who are shown respect. It's why the libs took over the Oscars and whatnot and are trying to make it so that only degenerates appear to be respected. It's part of how they're grooming your kids.
Me and my brothers are raising him up to be an honorable man with strong values and a fascination with trades, he's got toy tools, tractors, shit like that.
Good, take care of him. Make sure he works out a bit, though, just in case, if you're not already doing that. Even without any such worries as turning out bad, it'll make him stronger & healthier.
You gave your son soy. Its your fault when he tells you he's a brown hatter or you catch him sucking a coons cock.
Do testosterone levels on infants really matter?
Do you want your infant to be a little sissy weakling or do you want him to be hella swole?
No. Not exactly a lot of testosterone in breast milk either. Starts to matter later.
Maybe. The testosterone levels for babies go down the more male babies a woman has, this is somewhat associated with turning out gay.
Soy milk is great for anyone who's lactose intolerant. I've had a couple times in my life where whole cow's milk was messing with me for some reason, so I either had to stop milk all together or try the soy stuff, just be glad that some alternative exists! Milk is one way I've always kept up with my calcium needs.
Had to stop all dairy temporarily (and some other foods). Tried all the normal replacements. Of soy, rice and almond milk, rice is the best and soy is the worst. But goat’s milk is far superior to everything else. It doesn’t taste exactly like cow’s but if it’s from a good dairy where they feed their goats well, imho it tastes as goods as cow’s. And it saved my morning coffee, lol. Goat’s milk actually made better cappuccino froth than cow’s milk too.
Almond milk, shit anything other than Soy. Unless you like drinking plant estrogen that is.
Lactaid
Fairlife milk, expensive but worth it.
Goat’s milk is good, too. If you can find it.
Everyone likes to demonize soy. Soy is a fucking great protein.
But it should be damn far from your only protein. These fuckers with problems eat soy all day and night. Manufacturers put it in everything, just like corn.
Eat cheap processed food to excess, and you get problems.
True...I've seen it
Its cleaner than milk. My daughters both had dairy allergies.
My first almost died of dehydration a couple days after we went home from the hospital because they were pushing so hard to breast feed and my wife couldn't produce. We still managed to do about 3 months and then 4 with the second, but we always had to supplement with formula. The whole process and lack of production made my wife miserable. Then once she got her period it was game over both times.
Our little one still has a few months left of formula, I can't stand having to buy the stuff, but nothing you can do.
My wife was also miserable over the whole thing, she went manic there for awhile and I was basically solo raising him there for a month or so with no clue what I was doing. All in all everything got better.
Not holding the baby immediately can interfere with that and latent toxicity in the body like with heavy metals.
Should have been doing some breast "stimulation" well before your child was born to get those bad boys ready!
919 555 9022 I can help
I know the feeling brother. My son is 6.5 months and he demands a ton of milk that my wife can’t produce. We started him on puréed food at like 4 months but he still wants milk every 3 hours so we supplement with formula.
“but he still wants milk every 3 hours so we supplement with formula”
That’s normal. If you feed regularly, the supply with match the demand. If you skip, the milk supply will dry up.

People used to use goat's milk for allergens, one of ours used to sick up normal milk which was worrying. I don't trust formulas, they're full of stuff that shouldn't be in breast milk. But then covid vaccine spike proteins shouldn't be in breast milk either.
Glad your boy is doing great!
Thank you, I don't trust formulas either, especially soy but I wasn't going to let him shrivel up and die over something nobody had control over.
Same exact situation. Baby was a premie, wife couldn't do it, and we had to use incredibly expensive formula. It was close to $50/box when regular formula was $20.
Side note, a woman once made a breastfeeding comment in a passive-aggressive way toward me in a store when I had formula when I hadn't slept for a while, and it was the first time I ever lost my cool, said "How about FUCK YOU" to a stranger and stared at her in a way which made her move quickly away, scared.
Sometimes you gotta let the tiger out of the cage
Nobody likes a Nosy Nancy, especially at the store
Our little one was born so early that mom's milk hadn't come in yet so we had to rely on formula.
So glad that was years ago before all this BS started.
Breast feeding is hard, it’s not like sucking a dick, we don’t feel pleasure and the first latch sucks 🤷♀️ Wanna Talk More?
It's not the hard thing I'm worried about, it's for those rare occasions where the women physically can't for whatever reason, we're going to fucking starve babies in America in 2022?
Unfortunately it's not rare, 70% of women use formula to some extent and everyone I know that does started out with the best intentions to breastfeed. IMO lack of production is a public health crisis that will never get attention because the alternative (costly formula, weakened population) is too good for the powers that be.
My dried up after 3 months, so I had to use formula, but it wasn't my ideal.
My wife had no problem with the first three kids, but got the fourth the one it wasn't working. I was starting to get pissed off at the rediculous pressure they were putting on my her. They kept telling her to keep going and trying all while my kid wasn't getting enough nutrition... she tried, but I had enough of them making her feel like shit so I stepped in with the formula.
No caring mother will allow their child to die, bullshit! Free formula for many, MANY, years, you can get donated breast milk if you want, so fuck your argument
Are you trying to tell me you're retarded? Because it really looks like you're desperately trying to tell me you're retarded.
What? I like you dude, don’t disappoint 🖕
Harden up bitch, try going to war...
Oh wait...lol
Some people own bulldozers, just saying 🤷♀️
years ago there was this YUGE troll in the internet
it was a society calling for making breastfeeding illegal because women only did it for sexual pleasure
what made people so crazy about it was that there was an actual phone number you call
you got their voice mail, a littler spiel and then you could leave a message
this legitimized them
that was enough to convince people it was real and start an online furor
people used to be creative
It’s hurts and your husband hates you for 6 plus months cause your tits are sore and it’s fucking weird, don’t put your lips here.... it gets better with time and things regulate, unless you’re a creep-o, this is honestly the truth 👍
kinda like watching your wife give birth
something that looks like a lizard and all that nasty shit comes out
it's takes a while to get horny enough to dive back in
I was the wife but keep writing your fiction, you can ask my husband, it was a blood bath and he was scared, out of his hands scared 😱
what about pumping?
Pumping makes your boobs so big and too fast, but sometimes the flow is so fast you have to get rid of it, engorged boobs hurt so much, that is the weaning phase
I'd care more if my wife didn't know the difference between they're and their than I would about her tits
Really....
You are truly the king of Grammar Nazi's.
Without a doubt.
I salute you! But I refuse to join your club!
Your really whereing out you’re welcome hear fren.
Haha, best grammar Nazi call out
LMAO, whoops.
4 kids totally destroyed my wife's tits... So I bought her new ones. Had to realign the nips and everything. She is awesome for giving our children the proper nutrition. I still always got up to do a diaper change, but it was easier for me, so worth it.
Some women are unable to breast feed due to many legit medical or physiological reasons. Some babies are unable to latch/ feed. I myself experienced this. Trust me, I did not want to spend money on formula but I had no choice.
Comments making jokes are at the top of the thread, but this is no joke, it is a very serious problem.
I have a 6 month old baby, we keep switching formulas because the one we used previously is no longer available. We are now on the 4th different formula (the only one in the store last time my wife went). Luckily, my baby is not picky.
WalMart, Target are not shipping formula right now due to shortages, you need to buy in store. And when you check online for what stores in stock, there is almost nothing available in a 50 mile drive.
This is some serious shit, and no one is talking about it
Praying for you....I know how stressful this is.
Look into using goat milk, info at Westonaprice.org
Find some local farmers with goats
The fact that you placed the financial cost as the defining factor, tells me you are only fooling yourself.
That’s totally not what she said.
"Trust me, I did not want to spend money on formula but I had no choice."
I can read between the lines here.
I would be more concerned with the physiological implications, than the financial ones,
Even if one was a nihilst cunt and cared more about money than physiology in this department, they should still be more concerned with the physiology.
Morons that purposely deprive their offspring through laziness, end up paying a fortune in time, money and cortisol, dealing with ill children...
Never mind the burning in hell department.
One only needs to be honest with themselves, because ultimately that is where judgment lays.
Are you blind? Did you not read their post?
"Some women are unable to breast feed due to many legit medical or physiological reasons."
they can't latch is often times translated into I can't be fucked...
a century ago you would get the job done or else.
western bitches are half ass in the ethics department, and over zealous in the emotional wreck department, because beta cucks let them away with it.
MOST cases of formula feeding these days are for the convenience of the mother.
To all the men saying formula feeding is for lazy mothers and a convenience, I couldn't breastfeed because I had to be on a bunch of medications that would pass through my milk. Let me tell you something. Breastfeeding would have been so much easier than having to constantly clean, sterilize and heat up bottles around the clock. It would have been much easier to have whipped my tits out on demand and have it all ready. It is way more work to formula feed then breastfeed imo.
If you read my comment again i never disputed that. Nevertheless there's still a sizeable absolute number of parents that have no choice.
Whether it is a majority or not is irrelevant, there is a very significant amount of women who do not produce, and most preemies are not strong enough to breastfeed and once they start with a bottle, it is hard to switch.
Likely so they can toil, and slave away for a faceless unappreciative corporation as they allow, and even pay good money to strangers to raise(subvert) their children while also flooding the market with extra workers that stifle, and lower wages across the board. Another irreparable consequence/effect of the Bolshevik created, and enabled feminism, and stronk woman syndrome. YAY for “progress”.😞
Women typically over 35 that give birth find they do not produce enough milk and as the older they get the less they produce. Get your baby formula HIPP. We used this because of that. THIS is the best out there if you cannot breastfeed: https://organicsbestshop.com/collections/hipp-formula
Saved for 8 months from now
Have you read the development studies of formula vs breast milk?
Don't see how that's relevant to my comment, I'm clearly advocating for any baby who can be fed naturally, to be fed naturally.
Unfortunately that's not always possible.
Yes I don't think alot of those commenters understand it's not easy for every woman some have issues. And it's really sad for the ones that want to. It devistates them and makes them feel like they are failures.
I'd never consider a woman a failure for trying and then finding out it won't work for them.
I'd considered a woman a failure for letting globalists talk her in to chopping her child's genitalia off.
Totally. But new moms especially will blame themselves and take it really hard. It was hard for my wife at first to feed my son she was close to giving up. Her mom was convincing her to just use formula but she never gave up God bless her. I would drive her to lactation classes at the hospital. (I didn't get to come inside the milking room unfortunately) they did it in a group. I would just sit in the waiting room. And she'd be so exhausted from it, she'd sometimes fall asleep in there.
Breastfeeding is a supply/demand thing... many babies that aren't nursing well have an undiagnosed palate issue. Closed cleft palates, etc. That reduces the amount they ingest, which causes mother's production to lessen. A tell-tale sign is baby squirting milk out its nose. Another sign that appears later is the inability for baby to make certain sounds that involve the soft palate. That shows a suction issue going on. Nipple shields can help alleviate that problem. Nursing can be successful even with this issue.
It certainly is possible 95% of the time. Less than 5% cannot breast feed.
The dumb whores at the hospital will convince you otherwise, while they also convince you that jabbing them is for everyone's benefit.
The "not everyone can do it" excuse is weak sauce for dumb bitches.
The (less than) 5% that cannot, should be getting human milk from donors.
instead, a significant proportion of the population think a 2500sq foot house, a modern car, big tv and a nice front lawn are more important.
The formula aisle at the supermarket is a reasonable indication of the disparity between those the can and those that don't
Let's just assume your figure is correct... 5% of all babies is a lot of babies, you really think there's that much spare human milk to go around?
Don’t argue with this kind of thing. Think he has any idea of the cost of that? It’s great to have available but this isn’t a knowledgeable person.
The figure is actually 'less than 5%' and yes 100% there is a way to get at least colostrum into all children.
How much human breast milk is used in the body building scene, colostrum especially?
The problem lies with attitude.
I went through all this study about 6 years ago.
When the (concocted) measles epidemic that was a lead in to the Covid scam was a thing... It started in my home city (Christchurch, a globalist cumdumpster for obvious reasons)
The discussion on vaccines and formula was a fucking joke.
It was actually the conservative side of the aisle being the fuckwits that were stating that vaccines are awesome, that I would be depriving my child if I did not vaccinate and that formula feeding was EQUALLY as good as breast milk.
Yes it was the conservatives, the left were the anti-vaxxers at that point...
The tide has certainly changed.
Breast milk composition changes to the needs of the baby. The mums that do not produce, will in most cases have other issues that could be dealt with first, if academia and science was not asshoe.
Imagine being this... wrong
All those stats rely on a single, "study" that does not have much data. Their are a lot fo factors in breastfeeding including babies who do not latch, preemeis that are to weak to breastfeed etc.
I think it’s way less than that who actually can’t , but we’ll probably never know because the stats are incredibly skewed by the exact types you’ve described. Even then, most, NOT ALL, of the ones who can’t have themselves to thank do to poor health/lifestyle choices that are easily controllable IMHO.
100%..
My previous reply is almost verbatim with yours.
Dumb whores thinking of themselves, leads to retarded babies.
Yeah, I didn’t mean to come off like an asshole. Just wanted to add to it.
It’s not always just the mom. Some babies are actually allergic to breast milk.
You don't think allergies in babies, have something to do with lifestyle choices of the mother?
I'll add 'anti bacterial cleaners', drugs, alcohol, fake food, fake drinks and bug spray to the list of degenerate behavior leading to child disabilities.
any other queries?
I know people that used none of those things and their children were still allergic to breast milk. They weren’t allergic to things specific to their mothers milk they were allergic to the protiens. My parents sure as hell didn’t either and I have allergies.
Some children just have allergies.
Yeah, most people (even here) have gotten used to the boiling pot they're in. The modern health issues so many people are experiencing weren't common for most of human history. Babies don't just develop allergies to the one thing they're evolved to consume for the first year or more of their life. Women don't just miraculously develop problems breastfeeding, the one thing their bodies are designed to do after they give birth.
There are modern causes for our problems and people are too lazy to research the causes for them beyond what the mainstream media and medical communities say. The entire system is corrupt from top to bottom. Our food supply is fucked. Our water supply is fucked. Our medical system is fucked. Our colleges are fucked. Fortunately, there's a healthy community of people online that are looking into these problems themselves, looking for solutions themselves, and testing and solving them themselves, which usually involves reverting back to what worked, growing their own food as much as possible, and detaching from the poisons and lies of the modern world. I've been slowly researching this stuff for the last 8 or so years, and I still have a lot to learn, but I have a good foundation to make decisions off of. Hell, I could make a safe assumption that breastfeeding problems are contributed by the fact that most women pursue careers first rather than making families, are having their first child way too late (late 20s or early 30s), which is causing tons of complications for the mother, the child, pregnancy, breastfeeding, mental health problems, birth defects, and so on.
The modern world is wrong, and it's causing a ton of problems. Jump out of the pot. We're being boiled alive.
Even better, soy formula: https://www.chop.edu/news/babies-fed-soy-based-formula-have-changes-reproductive-system-tissues
And i dont think theres a shortage of that at all.
Crap. My daughter was allergic tl dairy so we gave her Soymilk from about 15mos onward. I didn't know back then about it affecting hormones.
Is she waving red flags in kindergarten and playing the soviet national anthem yet?
I wouldn't be so worried, because you said daughter...
If you said son... then I would be concerned for you.
Soy mimics estrogen.
just keep her away from GI Joe dolls and your shaving kit
there is plenty in blue states
Interesting fact the American Medical Association used to advocate for formula feeding, claiming it is healthier, around 1970, they did a complete 180.
What changed? You used to have to buy formula from your Dr.. The Dr. made money off of it. Once they were allowed to sell it in stores, and Dr's couldn't make money off of it, they changed their stance on it
when I get that bored I'll jump out a window
My wife breastfed for 6 months and then stopped producing milk. We had to use formula to get us through the next 6 months. Sometimes shit happens and breastfeeding isn't an option...
Yes, people in the comments of the article were saying the same thing. Here's an interesting solution one person's mom came up with for their brother:
Happy to report, he didn't die.
breast milk has a huge positive impact on infant immune system. glad everything well for your family, but in general its very important and nutrition based solutions are no substitute
just the first milk
it's called colostrum
The most important thing is the colostrum in the first few days.
Having worked at the dairy farm a few seasons, I can assure that the calves that did not get any colostrum, were either dead or put down within a couple of weeks. This that got just colostrum and not much milk before moving to formula... were (seemingly) just as healthy as the rest.
Women need to look after themselves when they are pregnant, men need to look after them too. Ensure their unhinged requests are not outrageous and the interaction between father and mother during pregnancy is as important for development, as the interaction shortly thereafter.
Just so people know. If you don't have money, WIC will pay for your formula. I don't think you even have to be a citizen.
True. People don't need to use this method anymore for lack of money. Looks like the problem nowadays is just going to be a lack of formula to buy.
Yep. I saw a woman panhandling recently with a sign that had a sob story about needing formula. I told her "I know you know that you can get baby formula for free". They don't let you leave the hospital without knowing that.
Our WIC is handed out through our Kroger now. (Like on a EBT type card able to purchase) And the baby formula has been empty for about 2 weeks that I know of. I have no idea what the young parents are doing, but it’s horrifying. Even the toddler milk and goat’s milk is gone in the dry milk section.
They've had some in the stores around me, but it's not much. And I think they put limits on how much you can buy.
You don't because the anchor babies qualify, but the income level to get WIC is very low, you have to be either homeless, or an illegal immigrant who gets paid in cash to qualify
No handouts. Tap water time
Well yeah, back then when a woman couldn’t produce milk for whatever reason, there were milk maids or wet nurses I believe they called them. If none were available, they’d just supplement with cows milk, and more than likely it was unpasteurized. I’m sure they all ended up fine.
If you've never had unpasteurized milk (aka raw milk) from a local dairy farm, you ain't lived yet. It's amazing and worth seeking out.
Do you know what the mortality rate for children used to be?
This is terribly unhealthy. I would think that kid would have some long term problems from that.
My wife will lactate for 3 weeks. With every pregnancy, she tries again, and 3 weeks is the limit.
Kills her every time.
Same here. I think she got 3-4 months in before they just turned off. Finding out our little bear is lactose intolerant made it really fucking hard to track down his specialty stuff.
White babies should not spontaneously become lactose intolerant, rejecting the one and only thing they evolved to rely on for the first year or more of their life. This has to be a new problem caused by the poisons in our environment.
Opposite for me. My esophagus was too narrow for natural milk until I was a few months old, had to use a special formula till then.
THIS! My wife fought tooth and nail to feed our children for at least a full year. Knowing her struggle to do what is undoubtedly the best possible thing for our children, it's so pathetic to watch women selfishly not want to be inconvenienced.
Congrats to those women who did best what God put them on this earth to do best!
It's something a man or a bottle of formula will NEVER be better at. (unlike women's sports)
what did she do, have fistfights with her tits?
I agree but, unfortunately I tried with both my kids and couldn't. This is concerning.
Extremely concerning, have a 6 month old at home, we switched formulas 4 times because the one we used went out of stock. Walmart Target won't ship because of low stock, the shelves are almost empty in stores
Dont you know thats considered rape by the left
If only there was a natural way to feed newborns...
I am mixed on this. Way too many friends have felt miserable that they cannot provide breast milk for their babies because their bodies just dont produce enough or any at all. So in those cases, it is necessary or the baby starves, and we don’t want that.
But for those who are perfectly capable and choose not to for whatever (usually selfish) reason, I do not understand that.
Lactation consultants can help. It takes time and work.
Not when your body is pumped full of pharmaceuticals which one is told to take for x reason.
Bingo.
Bongo
Not necessarily. I take zero drugs whatsoever and no lactation consultant EVER found out that my babies had a weird anterior tongue tie until my FIFTH baby. And this was after she had been on bottle/pumped breast milk so she’d never get back on the breast (and believe me I tried and tried and tried).
I wish it was so simple. They try and act like they’re here to help you but they aren’t, the help isn’t really there and especially if you aren’t rich. This costs a lot of money and my husband spared no expense but even with all that she had to be fully on formula by 6 months. Nothing whatsoever to do with drugs but it surely is another example of how shitty women (oh excuse me, BIRTHING PEOPLE) get treated in some cases.
Were you vaccinated? Do you eat lots of processed foods? Do you eat lots of wheat or wheat products (which are laced with glyphosate)? Do you soak your veggies with baking soda for at least 15 minutes to remove pesticides and herbicides? Do you consume more carbs and sugars than meat, fats, and veggies? Do you drink fluoridated tap water or fluoridated drinks? Do you drink or eat substances that you can't remove the toxins from? Do you eat only naturally raised animal products (meat, fat, milk, and eggs), meaning they grazed openly and naturally in the sun, without antibiotics, hormones, or vaccinations? Do you eat foods and drink out of plastic containers which leach into your food and drink? Do you use cosmetics, lotions, and soaps containing parabens and phthalates (plasticizers)? Do you know what other harmful chemicals are in the products you use? Do you get enough sunlight, vitamins and minerals, and exercise?
All of these things can and are contributing to tons of negative health effects.
That’s on top of the shit diets, and lifestyle choices of many, if not most American women today.
Yea it’s really not that simple. Lactation consultants cam at best show you how and give you tips, at the end of the day not every women is capable. I did everything by the book. EVERYTHING. My body continually got infections. Some women dry up for no reason at all. There are soooo many complications that no one wants to talk about because for some it’s so easy and after a few weeks or months it just works. This never happened for me, and I gave it my all for two kids. They ended up formula fed after 4 months. I would never judge a mom who HAD to throw the towel in because I’ve been there.
My experience was similar. After a cascade of problems, I ended up in the hospital with severe mastitis. Just because breastfeeding is natural does not mean that it is easy. I had to stop for my own health and it broke my heart.
I had mastitis too. Unbelievably awful. I was lucky I knew exactly what it was and got to urgent care immediately. Then my baby got it too, yes apparently babies can get it. How the hell it happens I have no idea but he got it. I suffered with five kids and tried to breastfeed all of them. I beat myself up even now over my failure. I NEVER cry, ever, but I cried ten oceans of tears over my failure.
Oh I remember the tears too. I’ve never cried so much in my life. It’s been many years since my boys were babies but it still makes me sad to talk about. It’s completely normal I think to mourn the loss of something so special that you wanted to give your children.
Try not to beat yourself up too much though. You tried FIVE times! You’re obviously a good mom who wants the best for your kids. There’s so much that you can and will give your kids and they’re fortunate to have you.
Some of the dipshits commenting on here, that know jackshit about this are getting really annoying. Aside for women who can't nurse, and there are many. there are also many babies that can not nurse, for a variety of reasons
There are also mothers like me who worked through all the difficulties and nursed five children for a year each. It’s not easy. I wanted to throw in the towel time after time but I didn’t.
I know a lot about breastfeeding and I think there are a lot of excuses being made.
100 years ago babies didn’t live if mothers didn’t successfully nurse. Nowadays 80% “just can’t” but “don’t you dare judge”. Something screwy is going on.
in 1900 over 26% of babies died within their first year
Same. Try try try but it's okay
Yeah, that makes sense. I guess in the past wet nurses would help.
In the past they used cow milk, condensed milk, goats milk, wet nurses. In fact variations of “formula” have been around since the mid 1800s in America. This isn’t some new invention of the democratic left to make a buck. Breast milk of course is better but it’s not always the option and thank God these days it’s not a death sentence for babies.
Even then it still doesn’t help oftentimes, some people just can’t.
Then they shouldn't have babies they cant feed?
So my five beautiful children should…just not exist? Man, fuck you.
Well I mean if you cant feed them....
This place isn’t for blue haired fags like you. Go back to Reddit.
Seethe harder faggot. If you cant feed your babies dont have them. Dont piss and moan cuz the government cant provide your babies food for you. That's your job and you are a failure. Cope harder.
Not every lactation consultant knows what they're saying either. I visited 4 different ones and NONE of them could help me. I tried pumping and that was miserable and barely made an ounce. The problem was an undiagnosed Thrush infection because it did not present the typical way. How do I know? I put 2 and 2 together when I researched more but by then I could no longer produce milk. I could barely hold my baby without intense, burning pain in my chest. I hated myself for being unable to do the only other thing my body was made to do.
Makes you wonder how many babies died back in the day due to an inability to thrive. In our family, I 've seen every issue come up. One child had an upper lip issue which prevented her from latching so they did a quick in-office fix for that. Another one did fine on breast feeding and pumped milk, and another one was allergic to everything.
Seriously. I think wet nurses were pretty common back in the day when there weren’t alternative options to breast milk that will at least keep the baby alive and somewhat thriving. Our ancestors probably had a more communal approach. And I would bet their parts worked a lot better because they had natural diets and not this processed garbage that we basically cannot avoid no matter how hard we try.
Mortality rates were pretty bad back then
Your friends should contact an IBCLC. The vast, vast majority of women can produce an excess of milk. There are a myriad of reasons why it doesn't happen for some, but it can be worked out often very easily.
The folks at the hospital are also generally under equipped in that area of knowledge as well and wind up making things worse.
100 years ago babies would have died if their mothers failed to nurse them. Now more than half of mothers will tell you that they “tried everything, but they just couldn’t nurse.” There’s no way the percentage of women who physically can’t nurse shot up that much in that time period.
Something screwy is going on. There are way too many excuses. There is a lot of poor medical advice and not enough lactation support. Women working as much as they do is definitely a big piece of the problem, but not all of it. It’s definitely hurting our babies. Breastfeeding is by far healthier for them.
I agree, somwthing screwy is going on because it should not be so damned impossible to breastfeed. There is just zero to very few knowledgeable breastfeeding support around and doctors are no longer trustworthy.
I think diet is where it all leads back to and how poisoned our natural environment currently is makes a big difference.
How the hell do supposedly certified IBCLC lactation support not know what thrush is??? That was my issue that I ended up solving on my own but unfortunately way too late to keep breastfeeding. Pumping is a whole other evil beast that not every woman can successfully use.
A lot of that is bullshit and carried over from ignorant doctors in the 70’s/80’s when formula became heavily marketed. Reps would bring some donuts in for the doctors and tell them bullshit about how kids needed supplementation. The issue is that supplementation dries up the mother and relegated them to formula.
If you aren’t producing enough- find a good lactation consultant. They’ll tel you most all mothers supplies can be saved until a few weeks of poor practice (forget how many). Feed and pump - whatever you have to do to stimulate production.
I bet in the old days, husbands would suck their wife’s tits to increase production like real men.
Lol I did that to get a clog out for my wife a couple times.
What, and make the baby normal?? No way. We need our GMO formula to make democrats.
Downvotes are flowing quite liberally for anyone who suggests breastfeeding is better than the GMO soy. Some butthurt wahmen in denial on this thread who just don't want to be inconvenienced.
its scientifically proven breast milk will change to meet the needs of the child. formula is an alternative sure, but breastfeeding should always be tried first repeatedly.
My wife had a child 8 months ago, she's 35 and unable to produce milk. We had no choice but to use formula.
My wife is 31 on our 2nd child. She produces so much milk that she has to pump it out and store it in our freezer. We are running out of space. This is not to brag. We are both vax-free. We are healthy and eat mostly organic and non-gmo. Dm me if you're interested in natural vs formula.
Le Leche Leage. Women donating excess breastmilk.
That all makes sense, but I also wonder if her having her first child at a younger age also helped on top of everything else you listed. What age did she have her first?
28 so not long ago.
That’s still a healthy age to have your first in order to help avoid problems if you decide to have another even deep into your thirties from my understanding, and layman research on the subject. God bless, and good luck with the new baby.
It is not only about health, many women produce excess, many do not produce enough
You are fucking depraved talking about 14 year olds you pedo shithead. Go find a Biden forum.
Please don’t make her feel bad. I guarantee she agonizes over it constantly. Tell her you love her and that she is doing great. Help her out as best you can. Women act really weird after having a baby. I’m sure she feels like a failure and is beating herself up internally. If it was possible I’d talk to her, I’ve been there myself and I get it. It’s so hard, support her please.
I support everything my wife does and love her dearly.
https://patriots.win/p/15HusttGUs/x/c/4OXHnFchhdi
the woman's ancient
she should not be having babies at that age
hell, she's old enough to run for President
I’m populating the earth with white babies since y’all seem unable to do so.
Hey bro I get it, I had my fifth and final at 39. Haters gonna hate. More white babies no matter how it’s done. God bless y’all.
old babies that already need walkers
bug milk?
Some woman can’t produce milk, common actually.
https://patriots.win/p/15HusttGUs/x/c/4OXHnFchhdi
Baby formula is a scam and almost pure soy. The vast majority of mothers can breastfeed successfully, and there are plenty of resources available to help those in need.
Search "IBCLC in my area" if you know a new or expecting mom that needs help.
EDIT: Also, breastfeeding is the easiest way to assist in losing baby weight. An added bonus!
Double Edit: For the angry ladies downvoting me, nobody is blaming you. Often times the child is the problem. Undiagnosed tongue ties, over-diagnosed tongue ties, suction problems, jaw muscle issues... this is why I advocate to contact an expert that knows what they're doing. It's a unique situation every single time, and unique expertise is needed. But if your body can produce a baby the chances of you being able to produce milk is obviously very, very high. There may be hurdles though in many shapes and sizes.
Thanks. I just don’t know about the vast majority part. About 1/3 of our friends who have conceived over the last couple years had issues with breast milk supply and have either had to go total formula or supplement with formula in a big way. I wonder if its our shitty diets.
I have breastfeed 2 kids both to 1 years old. Most moms I talk with 'supply' issues just don't get the correct information. EBF is hard for the first couple of month. There will be pain until your nipples toughen up. When that happens your baby grows teeth and starts to bite. Most doctors have no idea how to help or give you wrong information. Doctors are against cosleeping which is a lifesaver if you have a light sleeping ot fussy baby. I found the subreddit breastfeeding a god sent. There are breastfeeding support group in person. But who has the time for that. I barely can keep my house clean with a husband, 2 kids and a dog.
“Supply problems” are very rarely unfixable. Everyone thinks they aren’t producing enough, especially if you’re primarily pumping.
It's a myriad of issues, but an IBCLC is a breastfeeding expert and most of them are based as fuck. I've only seen one or two situations over the years where a mom can't produce at least half of the baby's needed supply.
Definitely give them a shot before switching solely to formula unless you have stock in Nestle.
It’s not their diets- it’s bad doctors and nurses, not trying to make it work. Not being able to produce, with baby and pump stimulation, would be rare although I can’t give you a percentage, it’s much lower than a 1/3.
Some people just didn’t really try and may say they tried everything to save some face. However, most probably didn’t get proper care.
The worst is the friends that get their boobs taped up immediately. Its a pretty disgusting act as a mother if you ask me and my wife- but I realize I say that without tits and breastfeeding is a HUGE commitment and often struggle. Hell breastfeeding can keep your hormones fucked up and cause post pardon- been there. But my wife gutted it out. I respect the hell out of her even though it was hell for us both for full year.
Losing baby weight is a yes and no kind of thing. You need to eat a lot of calories to maintain a good supply. Specially during the first 6-8 weeks when your supply is regulating. Breastfeeding is hard but worth it. The weight will natural come off but it is very slow.
Many, if not most women today are already obese before they even get pregnant.
I've noticed too many moms give up too soon on the breastfeeding thing. If I wasn't so persistent my wife would have given up on week 2. I think I found only 1 formula that either didn't have soy or didn't have corn syrup so I made sure we tried everything. After that she produced too much for the freezer space.
Congrats!
American Formula sucks. European formula such as Loulouka, Hipp, Holle are amazing. But now the FDA has cracked down on that ans they banned its import as of August
Lol of course they did
What a mixed opinion this topic is on patriots.win. A whole thread of breast feeding expects. I never would have thought.
We got dem tittys on lockdown
Make Women Breastfeed Again
That was a liberal thing not more than ten years ago open breast feeding in public, nobody had a problem with it except the news media of course, as always the real enemy of a free republic.
I don’t mean to cast judgement on people who use formula but my observation is that breast fed children seem to have much better temperament, behaviour and they seem healthier body fat wise.
My son was mainly on formula cause my gf couldn’t really breastfeed, she couldn’t keep up with how much he was eating and he is really well behaved. People are surprised with how advance he is for 2 years old. 🤷♀️
Found the groomer👆🏻
You are fucking retarded
So are you a woman trapped in a mans body? I’m confused fren. 🤷🏼♂️
Wtf are you even going on about?
I can’t believe you haven’t figured it out yet.
You’re a complete dipshit and I’m not confused at all.
What a surprise.
Even top of the line formulas are packed full of shit because of FDA regulations (Baby Formula Act of 1980).
are you a titty monitor?
Yes. No just we had our child and then a lot of friends did during the same period.
you can't have a baby if you have a period
Not true. My cousin had a baby, had her period the whole time, didn’t know she was pregnant, was normal weight, saw her two weeks before she had the baby, could not tell at all. She’s a normal person, married, great mom and wife….baby is like 13 I think now? Totally fine, normal, smart kid. It’s rare but it happens.
that is impossible
a period is sloughing off of the uterine lining
there would be no place for a baby to develop
Formula isn't as good for babies as breast milk. Breast milk helps strengthen the baby's immune system better than formula among other benefits.
Yea not sure why baby formula is a big issue so that it got stickied.
Maybe because the impact that has is a huge wake up call. Especially to young and stupid people who aren't politically aware. Even if you don't use it you know a bunch of people really depend on it. Especially moms who can't breastfeed.
I’m stocking up, this is insane.
On formula? Bro I'm stocking up on tits, get with it
I lol'd, thank you
The main plot point in the Mad Max Fury Road movie was transporting breast milk from Immortan Joe's harem of pregnant women to the outer colonies.
Get with it, bruh! 😆
I just ordered some from the strip club
I’ve been stocking up as well, multiple brands. I’ll donate whatever doesn’t work for my baby.
If any new parent pedes have trouble finding formula at the store I have a whole bunch of Enfamil that WIC gave us and we didn't ever need it because my son is breastfed.
WE FOUND A SCALPER EVERY ONE!!!
I'm kidding :p
To anyone with babies who can’t breastfeed I have some advice for you. Find a local goat farm and buy their raw milk for your child. The protein chain in goats milk is similar to breast milk and your children will love it. All of my kids and nieces and nephews were raised on raw goats milk. NOT PASTEURIZED. It has to be raw. No your kid won’t get diseases. No your kid won’t get sick. It’s an amazing substitute for breast milk. Don’t forget to warm it up! It’s 10x better for your baby than formula. Maybe 100x.
I've only had raw cow's milk before, tastes amazing, looking forward to trying goat milk sometime.
I breastfed my 2 kids. The first one for 12 months the 2nd for 18. It's almost impossible to do and hold a job. You produce based on how much the baby nurses. Pumping is a pain. I cried A LOT with baby number one. Becoming a mother in general breaks down everything you used to be. You are giving up yourself for this child. You lose so much sleep and everyone just wants to help you, they don't know that 1 bottle can lead a mother down a path they didn't even plan it. You just wanted that weekend with the husband and didn't want to wait til baby was done ... you ruined all chances of nursing for that . (Unless you pump every few hours the whole time you are gone). 2nd baby was a breeze. One of the hardest things I've ever done and stuck out. I've never been prouder of myself either
I feel your pain and triumph. #1 self-weaned at 14 months. #2 weaned at 26 months, and #3 at about 3 and half years. I had a better handle from the jump because I watched my mom nurse 3 of my brothers. Most women have never seen a nursing mother before, and nurses and obs/peds are not trained in the art either. The most valuable tips I received were to nurse on demand, pumping is not an indicator of supply, and a floppy breast is a functioning breast. I exclusively breastfed all 3 kids until after 6 months, and yet couldn't pump more than a 1/4 oz in a sitting. All three kids were consistently above the 50th percentile in weight and #3 was always over the 90th. I guarantee at least 75% of the "can'ts", are being misled by a health care provider.
I remember seeing my aunt nursing my cousin and thinking how weird it was as a kid. Up until I gave birth, I wasn't sure about breastfeeding and if it was something I would do. My hospital pushed me to give it a try. One time I broke down and made a bottle of formula, my baby refused it like it was poison. I tasted it and it was so gross. Became a total naturalist after that. Started looking up the positives of breastfeeding while I was up at all hours of the night. Felt like a super human with what was happening in my body .
You could make a separate post about exactly this.
Klaus Schwab: "Eat lots of ze bugs for serviceable lactation, Lady plebs!"
When I was growing up, there was no such thing as baby formula. Babies were either Breast fed, or we're given regular milk. And they grew up just fine.
How old are you? Infant formula was pretty popular by the 1920s in America. And by the 60s. Breastfeeding was most unpopular with only 25% of mother's breastfeeding by that time.
I am 259 years old. Don't ever question a man as old as me. I have forgotten more things in my long life then you will ever know in your young life. 😁😎😂
259 year old eh? How many times did you vote Biden in 2020?
None. Butt I did vote for President Trump twice. Once in 2016. And again in 2020. And if I make it to 2024, I will vote for President Trump a third time.
...or formulated it with other ingredients.
Baby formula is gross
Joe Biden has entered the chat
If you can, look for local suppliers of fresh goat milk. It's the best for babies if you can't breastfeed.
the reason they are low IQ is the hundreds of years of incestuous inbreeding, not the feta cheese from the tap.
Not sure diet is the main reason for that...
My sister has it delivered to their home.
Yes, it's super, super nutritious. It has nothing to do with how those people think.
I have grown up raising goats and around other people who raise them, the milk is truly good.
if the other kids ever find out he was fed goat milk he will become the butt of their jokes
Na, it's actually not that uncommon. It's often recommended by doctors for kids with allergies also.
whoosh
Check into Bill Gates experiments with baby food and formula, yes he did
Been stocking up, I was leaving 1-2 cans for someone else but now I guess I'll be cleaning them out.
Do you have a bunch of kids or something? Just curious why
Newborn, going to go through a lot of the stuff and it's not likely to get any cheaper or more available.
Congratulations.

My kid is being breasfed. He loves the titty. Can't get enough of milkies. Why would I give him knock off juice?
Alot of mom's don't want to but their titties dry up
He's 17
My mom made get own witg karo syrup and evaporated milk.
Don't let that secret get out....
There are a bunch of women on Facebook in my area volunteering their breast milk stash to families in need. Several women were working on increasing their milk supply and most said fuck it I'll feed the baby straight from the tap.
Someone also posted an old recipe card for formula: 13 ounces PET evaporated milk 20 ounces water 2 level tablespoons of Karo
I dunno. I just did a search online and I was able to add a thousand dollars worth of formula to my cart and checkout from Amazon. Just because a shelf is empty in a store doesn't necessarily mean a shortage. Could just be a temporary surge of purchases in that area. The article also mentions a major recall, so that is going to temporarily affect supply as well. With Biden and Dems in charge everything being less available and more expensive to some degree is a given, but to call in a shortage seems a bit hyperbolic.
But if there is a shortage my wife has a few extra gallons frozen from what our son didn't eat if anyone wants to buy.
The Abbott recall was a huge hit to this, as they were the largest marketshare and this "voluntary" recall was out of fear of liabilities and lawsuit damages they'd have to pay if they went to court. I have sources that work out of the Abbott offices and they have literally no supply. It takes time to rebuild that volume and inventory with most products coming out of one main manufacturing location - anything that does get delivered will be purchased almost immediately.
Oh are the Chinese doing what they do in Australia of buying up formula and sending it back to China here now? Or is this mostly the old fucks doing?
Agreed.
Hunger is the oldest trick in the book for dictators. I just don't think these faggot arealize if it actually comes to it I'd kill them and their family to ensure mine survives.
I wouldn't hesitate if it were may family on the line. Why? Because the mother fuckers in power caused this.
I think this type of thing will be ramping up soon. I pray I am wrong.
My Dad said this to me back in the 1960s when I was about 19 years old. It shocked the heck out of me at that time. Not anymore.
My wife had a hard time producing milk, so we had to use formula sometimes.
people need to go to jail over this. People in the Xiden admin.
Stop noticing things!
Nursing can be very hard, more need to embrace pumping if latching doesn’t work. It can be a pain, but I was able to breastfeed our baby for a full year and have a full upright freezer full of milk. Also good to have extra if a friend needs it for their baby. Nothing against formula, it saves lives, but breast milk is super easy on the tummy.
Not everyone can pump, I know because I tried and could never make more than an ounce in an entire day's worth of pumping round the clock.
I even used the hospital grade pump and it didn't get any more out than at home.

Vaxxes milkers need not apply
Both of my sons, now in their 50's were not satisfied with formula or breast within a couple of weeks of birth. The pediatrician told me to start giving them whole milk with a little bit of light Karo Syrup. The syrup was to keep their stools soft. He also told me to start giving them Rice baby cereal, and a baby fruit that wouldn't give them gas. Both sons managed to survive their infancy without formula, and have lived to be over half-a-century old. Also, my mother told me a cure for a baby's hiccups, was to boil water, and put a little sugar in it, in a baby bottle. Didn't kill either kid.
Same here. We were raised that way, and my mother and mother in law gave me great tips.
Sometimes the old home methods work the best!
Breastfeed your children.
Tits out for Harambe
This is just about all you need to get new mothers really, really riled.
Then, hell hath no midterm fury.
Yea, they want the babies drinking vaccinated milk….
Time to ban two males as "parents"
Not every mother can breastfeed. I wanted to breastfeed, but I was not allowed to because I have to be on cocktail of lifetime medications that I cannot stop taking. If my adult children were babies now during this shortage, I would be scared shitless. When my children were babies, my doctor said the medications could pass through my breast milk and would make my babies ill. Not all women that formula feed are selfish, ghetto trash.
https://youtu.be/yi147Umf9V0
Mommy milk is so much better. I saw a study about feeding your little boy formula is the same as giving him 1 birth control pill a day. And you wonder where the soy boys are coming from. Do what God made us to do.
well... seems like i heard that middle class females voted predominately for biden, so...
you reap what you sow!
too many women voted on irrational emotions instead of putting their families first and being concerned about their futures!
we all knew this was going to happen, trump told us over and over again!
Great advice. We have been lucky to be able to provide for our first with Breast Milk for an entire year, fingers crossed we can replicate that for our second!
So what's the plan now? Keep calling anyone who suggests we do something a glowie until the deep state murders us?
The Left: You dont need baby formula if you get an abortion.....
Can't give infants the clot shot so maybe they are trying to get those spike proteins into more infants by forcing more women to breast feed.
Toxic heavy metals persist in baby food. Make your own.
Walmart brand was recalled and they are keeping it hush hush
Ahhh. Thanks for the info.
Spent about 6 years of my life breastfeeding, two of my kids were 6 weeks premature. Feeding my babies was really hard at first, but got easier every day, where there’s milk and determination, there is a way. Too many women give up at the beginning because it’s hard. Formula should only be used as a last resort.
My body my choice… if the babies had a voice they’d never choose formula.
Your baby will starve to death and you'll be happy.
