So, think a few more months (in the scheme of life) of nursing is nothing compared with a lifetime companion!!" <br /><br />Wow! So true!

So honestly, she won't have formula long. You can start introducing cow's milk at the age of 11 months. So really, formula for 1 month, isn't that big of a sacrifice mama! And more than likely, when your milk comes back in, she can either start nursing again with the baby, or you can express into cups for her so she is still getting the nutrition.Lady Dragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17600102377578957468noreply@blogger.com
