Meet Sara
Hi! My name is Sara and I'm a mama of 2 littles, wife, and a high school history teacher! I love my family - my husband and I met in 2010 and married in 2014, our mini-doxie, Nashville, was born in 2011, and my two children were born in late 2016 and early 2018! I love to read, cook and am focused on keeping my mind, body AND soul healthy!! I started blogging at Forever and a Recipe in 2011, but in 2016 moved to blogging here at Sara Levine, sharing everything from home projects to teaching tips, and family life to book recommendations!
I couldn't stand breast feeding either! I was determined to do it for as long as I could, but Jacob is a guzzler and started to get frustrated, then lazy when eating, so I had to supplement. Once he discovered how easy the bottle was at 2 months, that was it! For the last 2.5 months he's been fully formula fed and not only is he thriving, but we're both happier for it!! (Tip, the ready to eat formula is cheapest at Costco. In Jersey at least)
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you shared this blog! I literally could have wrote this myself- my experience was exactly the same including the nipple shield causing some major latching issues along with an abscess. I chose not to breastfeed as well and my Pediatrician said regardless of what you feed your baby, a happy mom = a happy baby so you have to do what feels right and works for your family. So proud of you, thanks for sharing �� More people need to be talking about this and stop all the shaming!
