Am I a bad mom for not BF my daughter long enough
My daughter was given formula by the hospital ever since she was born due to the lack of sugar level. Hence, they had to mix my milk with formula. I stayed in the hospital for 4 days 3 nights, and I hated every time the nurse come in the room, telling me to pump or latch my child. I got so frustrated because my daughter doesn’t know how to latch and she will start crying as she can’t latch well. It was more pressuring when the nurse is there ensuring that I latch my girl, but I felt so stressed whenever I try to do it. It really affected my mental well being that I never latch her at all after I got discharged from the hospital. I only pump and eventually stopped at around 3 months. Thereafter, she’s fully formula fed (my lo is 6 mth now. I feel lousy about it 😔
