Helen72 Although I reached my out of pocket max, William and Margot did not.  So, I have to pay a deductible and co-insurance for NICU which adds to about 3K  :(  In US we barely get any maternity pay so this really bites.  We ended up transferring $$ from our savings...

Helen72 hope, thank you for your support!  I am sorry you are going through the same bs.  Ppl with high medical bills should not be hit with $$ problems.  This is so unfair...

khawkins Every mom works with the cards they are dealt. There is no need to judge any mom for the choices they make.  A happy healthy baby will show that you did what is right!!

mandaszoo I really feel for you. You are probably very emotional and worn out and your mum should be giving you unconditional support. Milk production is not easy for all of us. If I was you I would tell your mum you are doing your best to feed your babies and her remarks are really hurting you. If she cant be more understanding tell her to button it. Take care

JennaRie I totally understand how you feel! I was pumping every 3 hrs around the clock and getting next to NOTHING. My mom tried to be helpful and give me tips on what I needed to do, which in my mind made me feel like she thought my low supply was my fault.

JennaRie Turned out my low supply was caused by low thyroid, and increasing my dose really helped, but I have still supplemented with formula all this time. You do what you need to do to be a good mom to your babies, whether it be BF, formula, or both.

adgal I went through some of that when I had to stop nursing because of the ppd meds.  People can be so mean.  I'm sorry your dealing with it with your mother.  We all do the best we can do. Besides, there is nothing wrong with formula.  There is something wrong with feeling forced into something that just isn't working well for you and being made to feel badly.  ((hugs)) You are a wonderful mom!!!!
