Random Rant :(
My mom makes me feel guilty about pumping and not exclusively nursing my son (I do nurse him sometimes because we love the bonding). He is a preemie so we have to add neosure to his milk to help with development so it's not like I have a choice! She mentions it every time I see her saying how much easier it is because I won't have to wash bottles or make him wait while his bottle warms up. She also tries to make me feel like I'm pumping way too much milk (is that even a thing?!) I pumped 8 ounces when my son was 7 days old and the nurses in the NICU were so amazed and kept saying how wonderful it was but then my mom was like wow that's way too much, you shouldn't be pumping that much! We could be talking about something totally random and she will just start talking about this and I don't get it! Why is she trying to make me feel bad for doing what's best for my son?!
Sorry, just had to let it all out!
