Hi mummy! Why not pump your milk to bottle feed your baby instead? Can keep in the fridge or freeze it and use them anytime and also to keep stash. It'll be a waste to start on formula since you can supply alot & you'll save a lot of money too.
BF won't hurt if your baby is latching correctly. I'm a mum of 5 and still learning the correct way without hurting the nipples. Don't worry. It'll takes time to learn the correct way. Afterall, we're still learning, new mum or experienced ones ☺️
