Breastfeeding dilemma

When my baby was 2 mths old my breastmilk was drying and only manage to pump for 3 to 4 feedings a day. It was due to stress and insufficient sleep and rest causing my milk supply to drop. My girl has been formula fed ever since and now she is at 4mths + I am feeling depressed and guilty still for not able to provide her breastmilk. Any of mummies here facing same issue? Can anyone please share if your children grow up well even with formula milk? My first baby hence the anxiety.

who says bf baby is free from sickness and fm is weak? formula milk nowadays is just as good as BM. it's your choice what you want to feed. my first baby bf till 3mo while second baby 9mo. sorry to say my first baby is stronger than my second baby when they were about the same age. i got scolded for not bf my first one long enough but I never regret it when I compared him to my second one now.
