Husband not really supporting BF idea

So I have two kids already and both were FF for various reasons. Well I really really want to try to BF/Pump this go around. Not only because it would save us a ton of money, this is our third child and we will still have one in pull ups and two in diapers, but because I really want to try it and see what I'm missed out on. I want to try so bad, and I already have a friend who has offered to give (yes I said give) me her breast pump that she didn't use. Well everytime I bring it up he is always kinda rolling his eyes and starts talking about not getting ahead of ourselves. We were shopping the other day and he saw the formula and said "not looking forward to having to pay these prices again". I'm trying not to get discouraged, I know he's not doing it on purpose, but it still sucks! Anyone else have to go through this?

If you want to breast feed go right ahead. Don't let anyone stop you.

Nope, I'd tell him to shove it, if I were you.

Does he have any reason to be against the idea?

dont get discouraged! tell him it botheres you when he rolls his eyes, and that youre right, youll cross that bridge when you get there..... and then assume youll BF. I stopped, and shes 5 mos now and Im seriously considering relactating if i can because I wish I had stuck with it  

Sorry he's being a jerk about it.. Sounds like he doesnt think you will carry through with it this time... Just ignore him, dont let him get you down.. Give it your best shot, thats all you can do.. Good luck!

i tried to BF #1 but had no milk and when i had #2 i gave it a go again and had a small amount of milk. i carried on for 3 weeks hoping my suply would build up and after almost having a breakdown from lack of sleep and feeling like a shite mother for not being able to feed my baby enough i had to give in again.
this time round DH has begged me not to even try after what he saw me go through last time but i want to.
its up to you and no one else if you BF or FF dont let him talk you out of it if it what you really want to do.

You know I think he just got so used to formula with our last little girl that he doesn't even think about it now. He's not a bad guy, I just think that he is a guy and it really hasn't dawned on him how important it is to me. I know I'm going to have to stick to my guns and just go ahead with it, but I'm nervous. Like I said my other babies were FF and I'm a little scared about doing it (ridiculous I know!)

I think most men could care less about alot of the baby topics. Just do what you want to do, your the mama, and the one who is most likely gonna be doing 98% of feeding whether you BF or not.

Its your choice not his ... Dont worry about your hubs..you have BG to support you.

he wants your titties to his-self.

My husband was like that too. We formula fed my son and I wanted to breastfeed this time and he just said "you're not going to stick with it" or "you're not going to be able to" and then "oh, well i'm not touching those til theres no milk in them". He really wasn't up for the bfing idea. But I started bfing Serena anyway and once I started and kept up with it for a few days to where it was going smoothly, he was all for it. So go for it anyway, its a great experience and he'll either get over it or change his mind eventually. Men don't understand these type of things. To them, food is food who cares if its from a can or from mom.

My DH kept telling me I needed to quit at first because I couldnt take the pain but I knew I wanted to stick with it and keep trying my best and thats what I did. He now realizes it was just something I had to over come. Don't ever let anyone tell you that you cant BF if you really want to.

A lot of guys are against the idea for several different reasons. Majority of them close minded,  .

I'd do it anyways. It's the best beginning for your child. I'm sure if you got enough of those pro-BFing pamphlets and a few books, it might curb his negativity.

Quoting B.J. Titsengolf:“ he wants your titties to his-self.”

You know I think that is a major concern! He hasn't got to do all the "playing" he likes lately and I think he feels like this is going to take even more time away!
