I agree that she made up a bullshit excuse to stop but I wouldn't say she has zero perseverance. She did breastfeed Nolan for a long time.

I think Nolan was easier though. All babies are different when it comes to breastfeeding... my daughter took zero effort no joke. Some kids are not like that though... seems Harlow is not taking to it the way Nolan did so britney isn't putting in any extra effort.[/quote]

But she's, what, six months old? It's not like she was struggling to feed or not thriving or dealing with latch issues or whatever. She's a very healthy looking baby. I mean, Britney was literally complaining a couple weeks ago about not being able to give her a bottle because Harlow wanted to nurse instead. I think she's full of it. I wish she'd just be honest about it; I'm breastfeeding my third child and am very pro-breastfeeding, but I have no problem with others not going this route (what bugs me is when people who want to breastfeed fail because of not getting the right information and support). I don't think she's being truthful at all. I think she is over it, realizing things about her life and having a bit of a quarter life crisis. Poor girl seems lost but trying so hard to find herself while acting like she's got it all together. The way she was giving a million reasons why they quit and why it's okay gives me the impression she is covering her tracks. I'm curious how long Harlow really went without ever eating. It's all just weird. Especially with how she was complaining about her not taking a bottle but somehow that leads to bottle feeding exclusively? Stuff doesn't add up. If she really did freak out over a nursing strike, that's too bad and I feel for her. But I don't get the impression she wanted to continue nursing her. Just admit you're over it and don't want to nurse anymore or deal with pumping so you can travel or whatever. Six months is still respectable. Own it.

We all called it when she started pushing bottles on Harlow. How long until she takes a trip and leaves all 3 kids behind?

Yup, this. Whenever Playlist or the next youtube conference is (or to visit one of the Heathers, I mean Ks).[/quote]
I was agreeing that she gave up. I was trying to say that when things got difficult (as they often do at 6 months) she didn't want to put in the effort because of her own selfishness- whether to go to playlist or just because she didn't feel like dealing with it.

I told her to stop or I was gonna switch her to formula

Oh yeah, now I see what you meant (LynnGLOVE8989). I thought you meant she wasn't taking to nursing the way some struggle in the early weeks. Breastfeeding can definitely be tough. Especially when they start to get distracted and move around and such.

[deannaroseo]

I don't understand why she couldn't have just said "We're not breastfeeding anymore because of personal reasons. I didn't want to continue and Harlow is happy and fed." That's all she had to say and I don't think anyone would have anything to say about it. However, in her video she gave way too many details and told us a story that didn't even make any damn sense.
I seriously think something is going on. Breastfeeding is hard work, and I can say that from experience. It's blatantly obvious that she stopped because she's overwhelmed with 3 kids and wanted Ean to help with the feedings, etc.

Do I care that britney switched Harlow to formula? No. I do care that she is spewing a ton of false information to women who may be struggling the same way she 'was'. First, babies don't self wean at 6 months. It doesn't happen. A nursing strike at that age is often confused as weaning to a person who isn't educated on breastfeeding (aka Britney's pediatrician). second, i hate when people get breastfeeding info from their doctor. 9x out of 10 the doctor isn't a lactation consultant. She should visit la leche league or something.

Leanne seems like a lunatic. Why is she constantly buying britney stuff?! I'm glad she invites her out to do things for the kids' sake.. but seriously. Putting a surprise package on her doorstep? Whatever happened to that stalker viewer/friend from Europe? I haven't seen tweets or anything from her for a long time.

It's also really annoying how she kept saying 'I used to think breast is best...' it STILL is best. You just chose/can't do it so you're choosing to feed her something else. Saying 'fed is best' is assuming that if someone chooses to not breastfeed they just won't feed their kid at all. Dumdum. She also probably thinks 'all lives matter' *cringe*

Damn, she couldn't even hide her greed even if she tried

Ean "something stupid stupid ....no just kidding"

Ean "something really stupid....no just kidding"

Can he say anything right the first time without having to go back and say "no, just kidding..."

Fuck. I really don't like him. Super creepy vibe.

Also...

"What'd you wish for?"
Ean: you don't wanna know

I'm bummed with the whole Leanne thing. I have been subscribed to her for awhile (she used to do diaper bag reviews and packing videos) but this behavior/friendship makes me view her differently. I will say that she is definitely a gift giver, and always stocks up on stuff when she shops. Gift giving seems to be her "love language" and for a long time in her vlogs has mentioned buying this or that for a friend. But it seems sudden with Britney and like she's getting a lot of stuff from her, when it's a brand new friendship. It's one thing to see something in a store and get it for someone you know (a good friend or sister or your mom) or for a future holiday or something, but this seems a bit excessive. I was excited when I first saw that they hung out (especially for B's kids, because Leanne is really active with her son and they're always out doing stuff) but now there's a bit of... inequality? in the friendship.

Well now I wonder if Vanessa will come up with an excuse to stop breastfeeding now that Brittany pulled out.

[Frfghtr423Medic]

What is her obsession with Halo Top?! I mean it's good but the only reason I know what it is is because of the weight loss community on Instagram - they are all about becoming sponsored by HT. Although that fad seems almost over. She is creepy obsessed with it. It's not like a celebrity would be sponsoring her - she acts like a halo top sponsorship would be a kim K sponsorship. Weird

I laugh because I was eating Halo Top 4-6 months ago. She was kind of late to the party. If only she had discovered it back then maybe she would've had a sponsorship.

Britney is 100% someone who thinks "all lives matter". Remember her little rant about transgendered people using the bathrooms at Target? She is about as white privledged as they come.
Britneys pediatrician does seem really uneducated in the department and it is actually quite shocking to me that she would tell a breastfeeding mom to just switch to formula.

[Yogabbagabbat]

"When a mother says that her baby self-weaned before a year, there is a chance that she interpreted a normal developmental stage (perhaps combined with her own wishes) as baby’s wish to wean. "

From Kelly mom lol

A baby self weaning at 6 months? Bullshit bullshit bullshit.


And lol at Britney thinking she has great friends because they buy her shit. I'm actually close to my friends (unlike her) and we rarely buy gifts for each other

I definitely think it's odd that she weaned Harlow at 6 months, especially considering how long she nursed Nolan. Now is the easy part, as long as you're a SAHM. I totally would understand weaning if you're a working mom dealing with pumping. But...as a SAHM, nursing a 6 month old, it has to be easier than formula. Not to mention cheaper. No bottles to prepare and clean, plus it's a great too for getting them to fall asleep.

I'm speaking from someone who nursed 2 babies as a SAHM. It's just so much easier than dealing with bottles, why would you stop? I think there is something else going on. Is Britney getting ready to take off and leave her family? (Drastic, I know, but what they heck is she doing?)

[kalipali]

I bet around Playlist time she'll go alone (well, she'll meet up with the K's) and make some passive aggressive tweet to all of us how we're all just jealous and just don't understand her life.

Ya know, like the tweet someone posted a few days ago from when she first got the sugar gliders and said all the haters are just jealous we can't be sugar glider moms LMAO

Is this the same pediatrician that told her to wait with Nolans hand? You would think she would of found another one after that...

It's so annoying how youtubers always act like they don't care what people think.. if you're making a video specific to explaining one topic; you care. No matter how many times you try to be passive aggressive and say 'I don't know why people care what another mom does...' no one is buying it. You care.

[js2013]

Britney has zero perseverance and it it was clear that breastfeeding was just not a priority for her anymore. So as soon as Harlow started showing a little bit of resistance she just gave up instead of sticking with it.

I didn't necessarily mean perseverance with breastfeeding just perseverance about any obstacles in general

Let's be real, Harlow simply had a little nursing strike, but as soon as something doesn't go one hundred percent smoothly it's just too stressful for Brit, so she just gives up.

Pretty sure she also jumped at the chance to wean her because a) it meant buying more useless shit (she bought a dozen new bottles) and b) she can now leave her at home with the rest of her super duper crazy kids.

Her new banner though! "BePlus3 embracing the chaos"
