As a first time mummy I had a lot of people offering advice and telling me what I should and shouldn’t do and breast feeding came up a lot! Everyone said you need to breast feed its not fair if you don’t etc, so after my beautiful healthy boy was born I began my journey being a mummy, I loved my little boy so much but had a lot of trouble getting him to attach to the breast so I stayed in hospital for a whole week when I got home I was stressed and my little one still wouldnt attach for me ;( so I went to the chemist to get formula (I live in a small town with not many shops) when we got to the chemist the lady told me he will feed when he is hungrey enough and made it sound like I was a bad mum if I purchased the formula so I went home after 10 my boy finally got on but was attached wrong but I left him on as I really wanted him to feed he fed for over an hour and when he hoped off my boob was so sore he next day I had signs of mastitis and from there I had lots of hospital visits doctor visits and on lots of medication, it took three months of high temps sore boobs and ultrasounds, medications, hotshowers etc to get me through and I feel as though I missed out on my babies first 3 months of life as I was so depressed and sore my advice is do what you want with your own child and don’t let negative comments stop you if you feel your doing the right thing for you and your bub
