    This is a very honest video so lovely to watch. I also cried a lot when I gave up breastfeeding and it wasn't a decision I wanted to make, but latch and supply was poor. I hated the fact I was just stuck on a sofa all day and not holding my baby, and neglected everything else. Breastfeeding is so much harder than what it's made out.

    Oh Charlotte, I welled up when you got emotional. One day at a time, lovely, remember to stop and breathe. You’ve got this mama, you are amazing and baby Stanley is just perfect. 💙👶🏼 xxx

    Oh my goodness Charlotte baby Stanley is making me so broody - such a gorgeous boy! I completely know how you feel, my milk supply just stopped with both boys and I hated knowing it was the end but you’re always growing that baby boy with love and protection and every decision you make for him ♥️

    I followed your pregnancy and now I am following your postpartum baby videos. Stanley is making me incredibly broody. My baby boy is due next Friday so I don’t have long to wait until he is here and I have never felt so nervous but excited to meet him🙈. I love watching your Instagram stories and seeing the photos you post of your beautiful family of 5. You have done brilliantly these past two weeks with using breast and you should be so proud of yourself too. Good luck with formula feeding you’ll do brilliantly with that to, you have incredible support from Mark and it’s so lovely to see all 3 of your children bonding💗xxx

    I found your channel last week as my baby boy turned 6 weeks old. I had the exact same experience with feeding as you and have been dealing with mum guilt for the past 3 weeks over my decision to stop breast feeding. The pressure from midwives made me feel like I couldn't switch to formula but I knew I had to because if not, my baby would begin to lose weight as he also got angry when trying to latch and I wasn't able to express as much.
    Your video and honesty has made me feel comfortable with my decision, after all, fed is best.
    Stanley is beautiful, enjoy your time with him and you will begin to enjoy feeding him rather than becoming stressed over it :) xxx

    Being a breastfeeding mum (currently 15 months in) and 20 weeks pregnant currently I 100% think that what you've done for Stanley is incredible! Your drive to give him the best you could and continuing to do so by doing what may not nessisarily be what you wanted but now what's best is wonderful! He's flourishing and is just so precious! Congratulations again Charlotte, you're a wonderful mum to all three of your beautiful children 💙
    Loving that you've continued on from your pregnancy journey with these post partum updates xx

    This is just what I needed. I’ve been feeling so sad about breastfeeding not going the way I expected. So worried about my baby as I’m a first time mum. Thank you for being so honest. Thank you ☺️ xxx

    Oh sweetie...I know how difficult it has been for you as far as breastfeeding goes. Probably more so emotionally than anything 😔 But you are doing everything just perfect for Stanley and your other two kiddos 💕💕 I had high hopes of breastfeeding with my children, but unfortunately wasn't very successful and I did feel a sense of like I wasn't good enough. Now, I am due anytime with baby number 4 and while I plan on nursing her, I am a bit afraid of getting my hopes up again. We do what we have to for our babies and if that means they are formula fed and thriving, than that's ok!! 🍼🍼I'd personally love to see a vlog of your new routine with a newborn 👶 Any video you post I adore watching!! 💖

    @Jess_F89 6 лет назад

    My baby boy is 5 weeks old today and we've also struggled with tongue tie and feeding. I've been stuck on the sofa pumping every 3 hours around the clock and have battled on as I felt it was the right thing to do. I do feel like I've been missing out on cuddles too, and finally feel like I'm coming to the end of my breastfeeding journey - it feels like a weirdly emotional decision to make! Thanks for talking about it in your video, it's comforting to know others feel the same. x

  • @daniellabinch9181
    @daniellabinch9181 3 года назад

    Omg this video touched me. The feeding issues and the fact that the kids are close with their dad is exactly the situation I’m in now. Due to get tongue tie cut in a few days so hopefully it gets a bit better from there.

    I totally get it!! It is so frustrating to pump with your little one next to you and feeling frustrated and rejected 😞 both my girls couldn't latch and got under weight the first month until we combined formula with little I could pump... I'm hoping this 3rd would be a different experience and finally get to feed my baby exclusively with BM but I know it doesn't have to be hell, Happy mama happy baby.
    You are doing GREAT mama!!! And he is a lovely handsome boy 👶🏻

    Oh Charlotte, don’t beat yourself up regards breastfeeding. I lasted 10 weeks with my final baby before my milk depleted. I was devastated. I loved the morning feeds with her. I pumped every day but omg what a blooming chore I found it. Feed, pump, sterilise, over and over again. Beautiful family x

  • @yasminN130
    @yasminN130 6 лет назад +1

    Would love to see a routine with a newborn video! Due my baby boy in May and seeing Stanley has me even more excited! He’s adorable Charlotte, and he doesn’t care which way he’s fed. Don’t beat yourself up about breastfeeding. The exact same thing happened to me with my first, and it is hard. Especially when you’re pushing it trying to get them to latch and they just don’t. Me and my daughter were both so much happier when we switched to formula. She’s not 15 months and the healthiest happiest little girl! You’re such a genuinely lovely lady and I absolutely love watching your videos! :)

  • @EllieBoo289

      Stephanie McBeath Thanks so much for recommending the book - I'm in this journey at the moment as well, wasn't able to breastfeed like I expected to, so I'm glad for book recommendations and videos like this one that talk about ways to cope with the hard emotional side of it.

  • @sarahtaylor7737
    @sarahtaylor7737 6 лет назад

    I understand your breastfeeding journey. Mine was very similar. It’s so hard to decide to stop the breast. No doubt your hormones are still all over the place too! Please don’t feel too disheartened. You are doing your best. He looks gorgeous and can see that he’s thriving. All the best to your family❤️❤️

    The feeling of not being able to breastfeed your baby is the worst! I wasn't able to nurse my second because she would never latch. I pumped for six weeks for her and my milk dried up. I struggled so bad with depression afterwards for several months. Just remember fed is best and you are being the best momma that you can be!

  • @rearviewmirror21
    @rearviewmirror21 6 лет назад

    Oh Charlotte, I totally understand how you feel. I had a similar feeding experience with my first. She had an undiagnosed posterior tongue tie and never latched onto me at all. Whenever I put her to the breast she screamed and screamed. She wasn't interested at all and I felt completely rejected. For around 6 months it affected me SO much and affected our bond. I was ashamed to formula feed her - which is silly really. I'm now breastfeeding my almost 17 month old, so I got to experience it in the end.
    Please don't feel upset. I know it's heartbreaking, but you tried, and at least he had your milk for a couple of weeks. ❤

  • @clarejaynefleet7694

    I didn't get my youngest boy's tongue cut and now I know why he didn't gain weight with breast feeding I felt the same way as you. But he is now almost 6 years old. Only down fall is he has a hard time speaking correct because of his tongue but is learning how to work with his issue, thanks to speech group. But I love him and think he is perfect no matter what... your boy is handsome. I am currently 11 weeks 3 days prego with my 4th and last baby. You are helping me get through my bad days because I get to watch you. Nausea and migraine so I'm bed bound.

I would really apreciate a routine day with a new born 🙏

  • @Dilemma1990
    @Dilemma1990 6 лет назад

    I know how you feel right now and it's not ever going to be about protecting others feelings you have absolutely every right to mourn and feel sad Charlotte if someone didn't go into motherhood hoping to breastfeed then they don't understand the absolute devastation when it doesn't go how you hoped it would. I never got my first to latch and I still cried and it broke my heart now having breastfed a child I can't imagine how it would feel to go through it again having breastfed bill you know what you were hoping for in the future months and possibly years and now your feeling the emotions of mourning that relationship I totally understand what you are going through and please do not disregard your emotions yes you have a beautiful healthy boy who will be equally as wonderful as he grows up regardless of how he's fed but it doesn't make your feelings any less justified you're doing an absolutely wonderful job well done xx

    @liselisafrett1122 6 лет назад +2

    I could imagine how your feeling. So sorry. My second son wasn’t breast fed. I tried but he refuses to take it because his first feeding was tube feeding then bottle. So he wasn’t use to my breast when I try it when he was three months old. I did the pumping for 8months and it was so painful and stressful. I had was to go this long because he was born 25 weeks and it was best thing to do. If not I would have stop a long time before it’s not easy pumping at all. So I understand the decision you making. Your a great mom keep up the good work❤️

    @leeannelicense7892 6 лет назад

    I feel your sadness and pain. I only bf my two for 5-6 months before deciding to stop (for many different reasons). It’s such a strange confusing feeling. I was the one who wanted to stop but I also knew it was best for everyone in the long run but felt so guilty and so sad that our bf journey had come to an end.

  • @alexwholey3391
    @alexwholey3391 6 лет назад

    Great video, really enjoy seeing how you’re getting on, and feeling for you in terms of the breastfeeding. But as others have said, fed is best. I think there is too much pressure to make it work put on new mums, and that you’re made to feel like a failure if it just isn’t working for you. Stanley looks really happy and healthy, don’t beat yourself up. Hoping to nurse baby 2 when she arrives but thanks for the bottle tips, couldn’t get my eldest to even sniff one. Also you look great after only 2 weeks PP. 😊
