Guest guest Posted June 26, 2000 Report Share Posted June 26, 2000 I personally coundn't breastfeed any of my 3. I have inverted nipples and they simply won't come out. They never leaked a drop even with let down. And when I pumped even when very full from missing a feeding the most I ever got was 5 oz. When I stopped with my third and put him on bottle at 4 1/2 mos. he was taking 6 1/2 oz. I know when he was nursing he wasn't getting that much. You can tell when it's there and when it's not. I tried everything to increase my supply with no luck and I had to stop. The boy was hungry!! However, I never propped mine up with a bottle. I always held them and I never let them walk around with one, bad habit in my opinion. None of mine have ever been overly attached to it and thus I have had no problem removing it.
