i feel like we should not be shaming parents for refusing to chestfeed. it’s so old and for some chestfeeding can be an uncomfortable experience

I can’t chestfeed because of some meds I’m on and people treat me like I’m a failure of a mother. Like excuse me at least my child is healthy and getting the nutrition they need

do ppl still shame parents for this (genuinely asking, i’m not a parent) that’s so odd why can’t ppl just let ppl live their lives😭it’s not harming anyone

formulas are made specifically to meet a baby’s nutritional needs. i HATE that people have turned it into a taboo thing

unfortunately yes. my sister was shamed by her boyfriend’s family for not doing it. especially by his mom and dad bc they chestfed him. his dad genuinely does not like my sister anymore for refusing to chestfeed my nephew 😭
