Hi, I'm 21y single mom 2 months pp and currently having a hard time nursing my LO.
Not because he can't latch, low milk supply, nor inverted nips. I just don't like the feeling of it. He latches perfectly and I am an enougher but I get the DMER everytime i feel the first let down.
Am I a bad mom if I want him to switch to formula even though it's been just two months? Most of the people around me say it's selfish to stop breastfeeding for my own good. But how can I function well and be a good mom if breastfeeding is so depressing?

Not at all!!! Happy mum, happy baby. Breastfeeding is hard work. It's definitely NOT selfish to switch, wow, so judgemental!!! Xxxx
