I can't believe you feed formula

.......................To the mommies who think you're doing it wrong....I've noticed so much mommy shaming...so many people who think they're better than other mommies because of how they do things......we all made the selfless decision to carry another life, to let our body change forever for this little life, our lives to change forever for this little life.....it doesn't matter how you got that life here...wether by c section....natural vaginal....vaginal with a epidural.....it doesn't matter....all that matters is that you got your baby here....you didn't fail.....no part of you failed....you gave birth early? Your baby couldn't wait to meet you...that's not failure......you had to feed formula? Not enough milk? To stressed or depressed? That's not failure....that's not you bein a bad mommy, breast feeding doesn't make you a better mommy, you loving that child and making sure they're fed and at the same time taking care of yourself for your baby is what's important....nobody is better than you for breast feeding..... Don't feel like they are, don't make yourself sad thinking about it.... You're choosing to do what you NEED to do....you're a good mommy.... Guess what....babies cry and sometimes they cry just to cry...or they cry because they're gassy and sometimes all you can do is hold them and try to comfort them and sometimes it's not gonna work but just keep trying.....if you need to put baby down and walk away for a few minutes then do it!! You taking a breather doesn't make you a bad mommy....Your baby should always come first but please remember that you also need to take care of yourself for your baby.....I'm posting this because I'm tired of all the mommy shaming I'm seeing...and even experiencing...my best friend had a c section....she's been depressed about it because everyone tells her she shouldn't have done it and she should have tried all natural...but c section was best for her....I myself don't produce enough milk, I tried feeding her and pumping and doing everything to get my supply up...but in the end I dried up after a month of trying and I've felt terrible for it...and shamed for it.....but why? My baby is happy....she's gaining weight and she's healthy....that's all that matters.....so all you moms who think you're better than someone else because of how you do things go take a look in the mirror...are you really a better person for putting another down? I don't think so... We need to respect each other...just because it's not how you would do things doesn't mean it's wrong.....it's time to end the mommy shaming 🙌🏻
