Am I a Bad Mom? Breast v. Bottle
I just gave birth to my first son last week on 2/27. I am madly in love with him and I'm excited that he's finally here. However, I'm dealing with horrible ppd. I have MINIMAL prior experience with babies, and breastfeeding has been an issue for me.
Since the first time I offered him my breast, he acts like he doesn't want it (even with the shield on), and if he does take it, he falls asleep almost immediately or doesn't latch properly.
We had to supplement off the bat because his sugar was low, but we've been doing it since. I feel like a horrible mommy, but considering everything, I really just want to pump and give him formula...does this make me a lazy/bad mom?
