I just want to complain about breastfeeding and how demanding and difficult it is. I feel as though I can't say these things aloud without someone mentioning formula (or rice cereal in the case of my older family members). To me, it feel likes sometimes EBF moms are just thrown into this circle of "well sucks for you but you COULD make it easier if..." I would love to sleep more. It would literally be the greatest thing to happen to me right now. My son is 10 weeks old and sleeps about 3 hour stretches at night so I'm up at least twice. And I know many women have it worse, even if they do formula feed. I also feel like I can't defend EBF to people who use or have used formula bc I don't want to make them feel badly. I know there's nothing wrong with formula, but I just don't like the idea of giving it to my son. But man sometimes it does sound so alluring to have my body back and potentially more sleep and more help from my husband. Labor and delivery was painful but breastfeeding is way more difficult. I just want to keep going and try to stay positive. Cheers to you ladies.
