Does it make me less of a mom?

As a FTM, I tried my best to breastfeed my newborn for a month. (she's one month old now) but I decided to give it up today. Napansin ko, my baby barely gained weight and she's always fussy Lalo na pag Gabi. Hindi sya nakakatulog din ng matagal. On top of these, my mental health is already at stake trying to do my best to breastfeed. Sobra ang postpartum depression at anxiety ko. Lalo na pag nakikita ko na hirap at restless ang anak ko. Does anyone here experience the same?

If it’s affecting your mental health na momsh, feel free to feed your baby formula. Mas important na you’re in the right state of mind when taking care of baby. Relax, get some sleep and give yourself a pat on the back. You’re doing your best and that’s more important, whether you breastfeed or not.
