Mum guilt 😒😒

Martine

Long story short, I’ve been pregnant twice in the past three years! I breastfed my first child until he turned 1 year old. My second is almost 4 months now, but I don’t feel the same energy for breastfeeding anymore. I’ve been through a lot emotionally recently, but that’s not my baby’s fault. Still, I’m not enjoying it anymore 😒. My partner doesn’t understand either. I don’t want to stop, but at the same time…

We started combining bottles with breastfeeding because his weight dropped a bit in September when I wasn’t feeling myself. To help his weight pick up faster, we decided to combine formula and breastfeeding. He’s totally fine—he’s a happy baby. But as for me, I’m not sure where I stand with breastfeeding. I feel like my milk supply isn’t enough anymore, and I have less milk than before.
