Not even why does she lie, why does she even feel the need to state exclusively breastfed? Why not just simply celebrate the fact he is past his birth weight without the exclusive part?
He’s 3 weeks old now though so if she really was refusing to give him formula and then it makes the gallivanting all the worse. If there are weight gain problems most midwives advise to be at home in bed with skin to skin as much possible to encourage feeding. So was she refusing formula and refusing to stay home & focus on him 100% too? Can’t really be both can it?
She’s addressing us tattle “trolls”
She clearly reads the comments on here or she has got the comments in her DM’s about the formula in her story last night. That formula is not for Sienna and if she just had it as a back up incase she needed it, it wouldn’t be out on the kitchen counter. That baby would not be gaining so well being out and about on long car journeys like he has been if she wasn’t supplementing. And it’s fine to do so, that’s the point of formula and what it was designed for.
There’s absolutely no need to even say about him being exclusively breastfed, just celebrate the win of his weight gain. It’s just another way for Denise to make herself out to be wonder woman.
I’m totally all for breastfeeding (fed 4 past a year “exclusively”), but the way she has put those comments, it’s no wonder it gets a bad wrap and people are made to feel bad about not being able to.
