I'm so down right now.

All I wanted to do was breastfeed my little boy when he was born but I was so ill and got no help from the midwives. So he ended up being bottle fed and now no matter what I try I cannot get him to feed from me. He just screams at my boobs and scratches at me then it takes us almost an hour to calm him down again.

I know it doesn't make me any less of a mother if I don't breastfeed him but it is making me feel sad.

Part of me feels that I am not getting the right bond with him because of it.

Aw I know that feeling very well, I still get it at times, I had a c section and the mid wife's were stupid so I ended up with bottle feeding. But I don't think the bond between me and him is any different, don't over think it, I know it's something we all want to do as mothers x

@chesscalouise yeah i have a manual pump its just so laborious and takes up so much time. I can hardly go anywhere cause if I'm not making a bottle I'm expressing.

It really tales its toll my mind some days

Ah sorry the group i know is north but I'm sure if you Google it you can find some BF support groups, someone also told me about "paced" bottle feeding to mimic breast feeding maybe you could reverse and feed him that way and slowly trick him back onto breast?

Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no, his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?

i finally let him do it I finally let DF throw away my foundations. He says I look better without it. He said he hates seeing me cover my face with make up when I can just wear mascara and eyeliner. He says it makes me look fake and he said he's not saying it to be mean, hes saying it because he cares. Im glad he's real with me. He says I have natural beauty. He says he doesn't like it when I dye my hair or wear make up because he loves my natural beauty. I know some girls feel as though that they need make up but they don't. Make up to me is just to do it for fun and sometimes when I feel insecure. Hes the only man that has made me feel beautiful without my hair straightened, without make up on and in my baggy clothes. I can burp in front of him, I can do weird things in front of him, etc. He has taught me so many things in the last (almost) 3 years and im so grateful for him. He taught me how to make pork chops and steaks, how to play some videogames, how to make white rice, how to budget, etc.

I am so stressed right now!!!

I am so stressed right now!!! My OB doesn’t want to take me anymore because I am too “high risk” so I got a new one they don’t want to see me either. They referred me to a group one hour way from my house. But there is only one high risk dr and he doesn’t know if he could see me. I feel like I should not see any at this point.

My first B.B. crushing on me

My first B.B. crushing on me I feel so honored to have someone say i was their B.B. crush!! It’s my first so I’m feeling pretty darn good about myself right now!! That is all. Needed to get that out there before and if this app closes down!! That’s all carry on hahahaha

Rant My SO has been rude a lot ever since I've gotten pregnant...he said he doesn't care about my pregnancy, he doesn't even take one day off from work just ONE to come to at least one ultra sound appointment. I mean he's always making sure I'm fed, he lets use the heating pad, and even apologized to saying he doesn't care. He can mess with me all day but when I want to join and play around he gives me an attitude. He just makes me feel like s*** at times. He's a great fiancé don't get me wrong, but he can really get on my nerves and makes me upset to the point I go to bed earlier than him and cry until I fall asleep. Idk if it's the hormones or something/: I try to be a great fiancé. But I always seem to fail /:
