Having a Newborn with Colic is not for the weak! Trust me, if baby was crying then so was Mama 💔

Losing your supply sucks and its not easy to admit that you cant provide the milk your newborn needs. But formula isnt a bad option.
This was the first formula my newborn tried after I lost my supply. She loved it and it tasted very similar to breastmilk! It is a cheaper option out there and it comes in bigger cans. It kept my baby full and satisfied

This formula brand we tried at 6 months and loved it! From trying a few of Similacs formula, this was the only one my baby liked and didnt make her throw up. You can get it in small cans, to the bigger cans, and in the ready to feed bottles.

Things that helped my postpartum journey
I loved these colostrum syringes! They came in a big pack for cheap, and helped collecting so much easier.
Colostrum Syringes
The spectra 2 is my go to pump for breastmilk. It has the best suction out of all the pumps I've tried. Make sure to buy a bra to hold it in place.

Diapers ❤️
Diapers weve tried and loved using.
We switched from Huggies to Rascals and they did not disappoint! They last a while and are not too expensive! Love that they are now available at walmart. They did run a little big on my daughter so we sized down 1 and they fit perfect.
Rascals
I love the rascal wipes. We went from parent choice to these. They are better quality wipes.
Premium Sensitive Wipes
Parent choice wipes are my second favorite wipes. They are very affordable and come in a big quantity. We love buying them by the case and having them on hand.
