Thank you Blade 21, temmy and teeboo.

Please mums that did the exclusive Breastfeeding how did you help relieve your babies discomfort especially when they were making the whole pooping effort and straining hard. I am on day 11 of another "no poop ".

@mmotimo... You are right about some mums gaining extra weight after Breastfeeding. I don't think exclusive Breastfeeding is overrated even though we are still getting more information on this. Apart from the nutritional and health benefits and weight loss, exclusive Breastfeeding helps mums internal female parts return to pre pregnancy conditions, EBF also encourages bonding and provides opportunity to spend time with child, learn baby's new facial expressions, new language etc.
About supplementing with formula, I think it does more harm than good to very young infants. Considering the production process, preservatives and our market that attracts fake goods. I was told by my doctor that there are some food additives present in formula that interfere with some important nutrients in breast milk when combined thereby reducing the efficacy of either on their own. So I think it is better to use a breast pump as advised by amis and gracious as supplement.

Personally I am gonna skip on the breast pump till it is really necessary cos I am a bit selfish and want to be the only one to feed my baby.

Good that you've had a lot of encouraging posts so that I don't spoil things with my contribution.
Exclusive breast feeding is over rated IMHO, I don't see anything wrong with combining it with good quality formula and I don't subscribe to breastfeeding for more than 3-4 months.

. . . . . . . but then, I also believe your breasts were not created for breastfeeding alone, they are a part of your sexuality and that should last decades beyond however long your kids suck for.

I have seen some new Moms lose a lot of weight while breastfeeding only to gain it all back with jara later if they don't watch it. It may aid weight loss but it does not guarantee maintenance of a healthy weight.
