At the beginning I had a lot of questions.. is my milk enough? Is the baby still hungry? People around you will start telling you that baby seems hungry and you should start giving formula.. but don’t listen to them .. just trust your body and continue breast feeding .. this is exactly what I did and I’m so glad I listened to my heart .. my baby is one month old now and I promise it gets better with time

This part it definitely gets better and being in a community like this with all the support helps immensely as well
Heyyyy welcome!
It’s true! So many people tell you to do formula because your baby seems hungry. These people know nothing about breastfeeding! Babies are supposed to nurse frequently like that! Are they hungry? Yeah….but that’s why they’re nursing in the first place. It’s so frustrating when people give uneducated advice
Trust your body is the best mindset. Way to go momma
I hate how people are always quick to say that you need to do formula. Moms know what’s best for their babies and as long as the baby is gaining weight and healthy that’s all that matters
Welcome to the community! The early weeks bring so much self-doubt, and hearing others say ‘are you sure baby is full?’ is so tough. As a matter of fact mama, tell them they can kick rocks! So glad you trusted your instincts, it really does get easier with time! Hugs
