Relactation - 5 weeks postpartum
So, I had a rough pregnancy and I’m dealing with postpartum depression/anxiety and that’s why I decided not to breastfeed my daughter. Now at 5 weeks postpartum I’m considering trying to relactate because I am still leaking milk (not a lot, just drops here and there and if I try to express I get a few drops). I feel guilty for not trying in the beginning because I breastfed my son for 2 years but I’ve been dealing with a lot…
If anyone has any advice, I’d really appreciate it. Also, does breastfeeding add to postpartum depression/anxiety due to the increase in hormones?
Thanks everyone…
