I was breastfeeding my son of 3 months when he went on a nursing strike. I tried and tried and he just wouldn't nurse. I ended up having to pump, but even then, he wasn't getting enough. I ended up having to give him formula after two nights of no sleep and a screaming baby. My doc was on vacation and no one else would talk to me about it at the hospital. Now he is on formula full time, but I miss breastfeeding. I hated nursing him in public, and even though myy milk supply dwindled at night I was producing enough in the morning. Should I try to breastfeed again, and maybe just give him a formula bottle at night? Should I feed exclusively? My son is sleeping through the night now, so maybe I can get more rest, and make more milk. Any thoughts would be good.
