Breastfeeding and Supplementing Advice for New Moms

Being a new mom is an amazing experience but it can also go a little differently than you had originally planned. I thought feeding my babies would go one way, but it turned into a completely different experience when we had to start supplementing with formula. Here is my breastfeeding and supplementing advice for new moms.

Baby Girl Day 5

I remember the first time I heard my son cry.  It was so surreal.  All of a sudden I was a mom.  Nothing can prepare you for that moment.  No matter how many books I read about babies, I quickly realized that being a mom required on the job training.  Like every new mom, I wanted the best for my babies.  I thought breastfeeding would be natural and easy for me, that wasn’t the case.

I started pumping breast milk for several months with both of my kids.  I would sit there and pump, then feed, then wash all the pumping parts and then do it all over again 2 hours later.  When I had to go back to work I quickly realized that it wasn’t sustainable. It was at that time that I realized formula feeding would be best for us.

Finding a Good Baby Formula for your Kids

There are so many options when it comes to a baby formula that it can get a little overwhelming for new parents. The truth is, you have to look beyond labels and looks to find what works best for your kids. When it came to choosing a brand of formula for my family, we went with Parent’s Choice  Parent’s Choice is nutritionally comparable to all the leading baby formula brands yet it costs a lot less than those brands. Parent’s Choice™ Infant Formula is now available in Non-GMO at Walmart. There are four Non-GMO formula options that feature a blend of nutrients that support your baby’s growth and development.

Parent's Choice FormulaHaving a baby is expensive.  You have diapers, wipes, clothes and even daycare expenses.  With Parent’s Choice value sizes, on average you could feed your baby 60 4oz bottles for under $20!  Higher price doesn’t equal higher quality!
