I feel like I definitely wasn’t supported enough by my hospital. I had to give my baby formula because I wasn’t making enough breastmilk

Why is bottle feeding so often portrayed as a failure? It's not..

Helen Bowerman :
I switched and did it for my mental health. Struggled with DMER and ppd/ppa. Feel better mentally, but like I failed my son.

I felt so defeated but I triple fed for two months after “dad” left us. It all just became too much. I’m proud now looking back.

I’m watching this while I pump and now cry. The constant judgement I got cause my son wouldn’t latch. He is fed and happy that’s what counts..

With my first I felt so guilty for not being able to have more breast milk for him. With my second I learned my lesson and I don’t let anyone to put me down. Both children are wonderful and perfect
