I feel like less of a mommy because I can't breastfeed my baby girl 😳.. We both have issues, she gets lip tied and my nipples aren't quite big enough for her to stay on. We tried the nipple shield but she knocks it off and it gets frustrating for us both plus when she is on the milk comes out too fast... She still drinks breast milk just from a bottle. I was really looking forward to the whole bonding experience of breastfeeding 😔

Don't feel bad! Do skin to skin while you bottle feed. Snuggle. Kiss her before you pump. And just feed with love. (: Trust me you'll bond just fine mama. ☺☺

Girl I've been EPing for almost 6 months and I used to feel that way but honestly exclusive pumping takes hard work and dedication so be proud 🙌🙌💪💪

Have you worked with a lactation consultant and talked to her doctor about fixing the lip tie? You are definitely not less than a mother. You're awesome and doing your best for your baby. Each baby has their nursing challenges but you can overcome them. Also your local LA leche league would be very helpful.
