\n<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\nOpening up!<\/p>\n

Ashley Tisdale<\/strong> wants to help end the stigma against formula, so she is speaking about her own experience attempting to breastfeed her 3-month-old daughter Jupiter<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

Penning a heartfelt and vulnerable article on her health and wellness website Frenshe<\/em> on Thursday, the High School Musical<\/em> alum began:<\/p>\n

\u201cI wish someone would\u2019ve told me how hard breastfeeding really was. You see your friends who are new moms feeding their babies make it look so easy. But no one tells you how hard it really is. I think there\u2019s this pressure around the subject of breastfeeding, and that those who do it are the best moms, but that\u2019s not true.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Ashley\u2019s troubles with breastfeeding started day one as a mom, making the whole situation that much more stressful!\u00a0When all the actress wanted to do was create a bond with her daughter, \u201cJupiter was having trouble latching\u201d while the family was still in the hospital. The 35-year-old reflected:<\/p>\n

\u201cI probably should\u2019ve taken that as a hint, but instead I kept on trying, even though I could tell Jupiter was frustrated. This made me upset because I just wanted to have a good experience with feeding her for the first time.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

And things didn\u2019t get better\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cNow, let\u2019s cut to day four of me pumping milk. At this point, I was so over trying to figure out the latch and was giving her breast milk by the bottle. Thankfully, she LOVED the bottle. That was the moment I realized that maybe breastfeeding isn\u2019t meant for us. I pumped all day, and never looked forward to pumping. I would look at the pump like it held me back from really being in the moment with Juju and enjoying my first weeks of motherhood.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Wow\u2026 It sounds like the former Disney Channel<\/strong> star was really struggling! She even told her husband Christopher French<\/strong> at one point:<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel like we\u2019re striving and not thriving with this breast milk situation.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Aw! Major props to the singer for being honest! Wanting to make a change, the couple researched different products to find the perfect formula for their baby\u2019s needs, landing on a brand called Enspire<\/strong>. Explaining this unnecessarily controversial decision, Tisdale continued:<\/p>\n

\u201cIf I wasn\u2019t going to breastfeed, I wanted to make sure Jupiter was getting the best nutrition from her formula in her early, formative months. After Chris and I did a ton of research on the important ingredients she needed to support her brain development and immune health, we started feeding her Enspire, the closest formula to breast milk. What set Enspire apart from the rest was an ingredient called \u2018lactoferrin\u2019, it\u2019s a protein also found in breast milk that no other formula currently has added as an ingredient.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Wait, is this a recommendation or an ad? Well, if it works\u2026 (Do all your research, moms!)<\/p>\n

Most important of all, the transition from breastfeeding to formula has given the family \u201cpeace of mind\u201d and the mom a chance to focus on what matters \u2014 her mini-me!!<\/p>\n

\u201cThe thing about formula is that you still have that same special moment with your baby that you do with breastfeeding. You\u2019re still looking into your baby\u2019s eyes, whether it\u2019s with your breast or a bottle. I know it\u2019s super popular right now to post an Instagram<\/strong> picture of you breastfeeding, but what about the other moms who don\u2019t have that experience? The moms who try it, and it just doesn\u2019t work out?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
