Feeling inadequate

Hi mommies, My in-laws are making me feel inadequate all the time since I m formula feeding mostly. My LO is 6 weeks old and I m trying my best to breastfeed her but my supply is so low I only make enough for 1-2 feeds. My in-laws keep taunting me that I m not trying hard enough. It's already so hard to juggle everything and such comments on top make me feel so bad and as a failure. They made a comment that it's like giving McDonald's vs home cooked food and that triggered me a lot. My baby is happy and fed and I give her whatever bm I m able to make. Isn't being a happy mom more important than killing us over trying to breastfeed??

Please ignore them and prioritize your mental health. You're already doing your best mama! As long as our baby is fed well and growing up well, we should ignore those negative remarks. 🤍
