I usually just keep things like this to myself but I'm really down about it. Every since I was a little girl I've always wanted to breastfeed when I was a mommy. And now that I am a Mom its a big struggle! My oldest who is 2 now was formula fed, I dried up after 4 days due to a breast infection plus I was a first time mom I didnt understand anything about breasfeeding or how to exactly. My son was a preemie and had to stay in nicu because I couldnt be there every sec with him due to already having a 11 month old at home I exclusively pumped for him, I filled the nicu fridge and my freezer with milk for him but once he came home my schedule changed from 2 hour pumps to 5 hours and I dried up and was completely heartbroken. My mom had 5 kids but Nobody in my family has EVER breastfed including her. Well i just gave birth to our 3rd and I'm breastfeeding and pumping. Every ounce is so important to me and nobody gets that. My mom keeps making remarks like I might dry up again. I should get formula just in case. She always gives me looks if im in public and pumping or latching.keeps telling me I can feed her (thru bottle) which I only wanna use if I have too she will latch to one side and eats just fine tho. And all the comments are on my nerves. She just doesnt get how important for my too succeed in this really means to me! I felt like a complete failure with my son I don't want to just give up with my daughter. I sent this picture to her earlier talking about how I wanted to get it framed (it was our first latch my first latch EVER with my kids) and i was proud of myself for making it almost a month with no problems. But she just made smart comments about a picture like that being in my house. I guess I just need somebody to tell me its worth it! I love every sec of breastfeeding my daughter but all the negativity is getting to me I guess
