10 months in and I've never wanted to quit so bad. My baby is so clingy. She doesn't like anyone but me and I can't leave her for more than a few hours. And that never get to happen because the only person she will even stay with without screaming the whole time is my mom. She's still up all night to eat and wants to comfort nurse all day long. I'm so touched out. This momma needs a break. 😔
I am in the same boat as you my baby can only go 4 hours without me after that she won't stop crying till I get home 😔 I love her with all my heart but it does drive me crazy
Yep. Breastfeeding is a huge sacrifice sometimes 😔 of course, worth all the suffering or we wouldve quit months ago 😆 our babies are old enough to go longer stretches without milk though. If you need a break, just go for it. Baby will fuss but she'll be fine.
@kambam, it sucks. Like, I love her. And I love spending every moment with her. But sometimes I just need to recharge. It's so exhausting. Definitely the downside of breastfeeding.
