I'm just wondering if anyone else relied on formual feeds, but still expressed enough per day for 1 or 2 full feeds of ebm?

I'm only asking because everywhere I look, it seems that they are either fully feeding thier bub's B/M, comp feeding with B/M being the main source of milk, or fully F/F. Am I just out of the norm??? LOL

Breastfeeding didn't work out for us..having 4 kids, school, stress and a very hungry baby just didn't all = a good breastfeeding experience, but I didn't totally want to give up, and I've found if i express every few hours and save it, I'll get 1 or 2 full feeds of EBM per day...surely that's better than none?? :)

I can't relate to your situation, but would have to agree with you - every bit of breastmilk you give your bubba is wonderful! Be it half a feed or 2 full feeds! :) Good on you for expressing some for your bub!

Of course its better than none! And I applaud you for finding the time to express when you already have so many kids keeping you busy already. Keep it up!!! Good luck!!!

Yep that's great you are still expressing breastmilk for your baby. Every little drop counts :D :D
