Currently fighting with my husband over breastfeeding. I didn't know him and his sister were experts, and here I am trusting my doctor while doing my best to keep it together emotionally 😵😩. Not once have I gotten empathy or compassion about how it must make me feel to struggle so much, and not be able to create that bond like I want to.
@embracemthrhd2 thank you so much! It's just hard getting it to work, and the last thing needed is yelling, anger, and conflict. I will keep trying, and until then pump away
I dont know why the people we think would be supportive of this decision are the main ones discouraging us... i went through the same thing with my bf.... i wanted to quit because of it soooo many times... im so glad i didnt!! It is an amazing bond and i wouldnt trade it for anything. Dont give up! Hang in there! YOU carried YOUR baby 9 MONTHS! YOU can feed YOUR baby the way You feel is best! Im rootin for ya✊
Hang in there mama, BF is so isolating but you gotta take care of yourself and your LO. You are doing great!
