"My mixed feeding story began 10 months ago. I know I have enough milk for her but it was my choice. Yes, I did some research before she arrived. I saved tons of infographics of do's and don'ts. I asked breastfeeding friends what to expect. Then she came and it was not as easy as I thought it would be.

May times na iyak siya nang iyak, pinipilit ko pa din sa akin siya dumede. In denial ako sa gatas ko. I keep telling my self that my milk is enough because that's what they said.

But she's gaining weight poorly that's why I decided to supplement her with formula milk and it was the best decision I made. We sleep peacefully at night and no more forever-crying baby. I stopped believing what everyone thinks is correct and started believing my instinct. It may sound cliché but Fed is indeed the Best.
