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?

been there nung newborn palang baby ko. i tried my best para ibreastfeed siya kasi gustong gusto ko talaga pero wala mahina gatas ko tapos inverted nipple pa ko. sobrang hirap. nakaka frustrate talaga plus the PPD. sabi ko sa asawa ko iformula na lang namin si baby since di ko talaga kaya at iyak siya nang iyak kasi di siya nabubusog. since nag formula kami, laging ang himbing ng tulog ni baby at di na rin ako masyadong nahirapan. nakakagawa ako ng household chores gawa ng mahaba siya kung matulog tsaka lumaking healthy yung baby ko sa formula na yon. wag mong iforce yung pagbbreastfeed kung di kaya mamsh. there's a lot of ways to feed our child. kailangan mo din alagaan sarili mo. kung di mo siya mapa breastfeed, so what? does it make you less of a mom? NO. okay lang po yon. ikaw mas nakakaalam kung anong BEST for your baby. laban lang po. kaya yan 😊
