People’s doubting comments...

I’ve had a lot of people tell me I would probably give up breastfeeding within the first few months. I’m only 6months pregnant and trying to prepare with as much knowledge as possible before baby gets here in November but I find myself second guessing and wondering if I’ll be able to do it.

A “friend” told me he bets I’ll give up in the first few months and that my baby will be drinking formula before the first year. A second “friend” told me he knows a lot of women that couldn’t do it, and it’s so hard and he’d be surprised if I stick with it. These are ALL MEN by the way! 😡 my husband’s friends mostly. A few other people have made comments too.

Bunch of assholes if you ask me. But now I fear what they’re saying will come true simply because I have that in the back of my mind. I feel like I need to prove it to everyone I CAN breastfeed and I won’t give up. And if I do, I’ll feel even more anxiety because they were right. 😩😩

Who says that to a NEW mom expecting?! Any mom, but one that’s never had a baby before. Time for some new friends or what?! Lol! 😔

Just had to share some frustration.
