I only managed to breastfeed for a couple of days postpartum and had to turn to formula milk due to latching issues and low milk supply despite seeing the lactation consultant. Thereafter, I only managed to feed my baby occasional express breastmilk for less than a month before switching to 100% formula milk. Trust me. The defeat I felt was worse. I thought I could exclusively breastfeed my baby for at least a few months. Took me a while but I finally came to terms with it. All these “breast is best” is bull crap. It makes mothers even worse for not being able to breastfeed due to their own circumstances. I would say, “fed is best”. More importantly, as long as the mummy is comfortable, healthy and happy.
