If you want to breastfeed, find someone who will support your goal. I had people telling me to “just quit,” but my husband encouraged me while also reminding me the choice was mine. Having one supportive person made all the difference during the hardest days.
Overall tip: Surround yourself with people who encourage your goals, whatever they may be!
It amazes me how many people think a baby HAS to drink from a bottle. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard that I need to get my daughter used to drinking from a bottle. I’m starting to think other family members just want to be the one to feed her. Like somehow that’s the only way they can bond. It drives me nuts! I’m so glad your husband supports you. Mine does too
You guys are my people but seriously no one in my family breastfed and no one understands my want to continue like you guys do!
My step dad is always saying he’s going to get a can of formula so they can keep the baby over night to give me a break but that makes me not want a break at all I have over 500oz in my freezer that’s perfectly fine but he keeps saying formula is easier. It’s frustrating for sure!
