This is not directed directly to anyone on here or any comments, it's just something I have been thinking about lately....breastfeeding is a great thing but if you see a mom out in public bottle feeding please do not judge her. Non all moms are able to breastfeed and some of us have a hard time dealing with not being able to breastfeed. I will not be able to breastfeed due to an immune disorder and I wish it was an option for me. I am worried about the dirty looks I will get in public when I get out my daughters bottle. I am worried about the nurses at the hospital tomorrow not knowing my situation and trying to pressure me to breastfeed. I am worried that I'm not giving my child every advantage but I have no choice. My milk could harm my baby. I am just thankful that the option of formula is there.

Yeah I know that's hard for you. Will the disorder get better after having baby or no?

lichen sclerosus which is the same reason I need to have a c section. It has been terrible during pregnancy, a very severe case. The medications for it can absolutely not be combined with breastfeeding.

Dang I never heard of people judging a mom for pulling out a bottle in public. I thought it was always pulling a boob out. I guess people aren't satisfied with anything. Do what you do momma. If you don't mind me asking, what kind of immune problem do you have?

@ladimogul, that's one of the things I'm worried about, especially since my milk could harm my child and I'm having a c section so I will be so drugged up that I may not be able to explain to every nurse so I told my husband it is one of his jobs

Thank you for your post, nurses have handled me forcibly attempting to get me to breast feed.

My husband takes his cousin girlfriend to work. Should I be worried about the FEMALE coming on to my husband?

jacqueline.garth I trust my husband 100% but I would still be uncomfortable. It would be different if you

I also recently found out that I can't take maternity leave only having been at my job since March... I must put in my two weeks when I am ready, and be completely rehired back after baby and recovery from second c section 😰😰😰😰 I'm so worried. What if they don't hire me back, and I have a two year old and an infant and no job. I am terrified about this

amysbabies Yes, like Kayla said, the disability part they have to. At the very end of your pregnancy
