i gave birth to 2 daughters. despite of sufficient milk supply both times, i was forced to give them feeder. but i refused to give them feeder and gave them my milk. both are not so fluffy and are slim and everyone used to say your milk is not making them gain weight .but i was determined and i kept continuing with breast milk. i have gone through all the sarcastic things but believe me, the bond which i have with my babies is true and i am so satisfied that i could fill their tummy and proudly say they took my feed, because both are quiet active in all the tasks and sharp minded.

Main challenge I faced was pumping every two hours. My little one wouldn't latch and would just refuse to take formula. I would just pump every two hours. It was so hectic. But at the end now he is weaned off and healthy baby boy

the main challenge that I faced during breastfeeding is pain in upper back. I absolutely ignored the fact that you have to bring your baby to breast , not to offer him by bending . It caused severe back pain , I have an year old son and still breastfeeding. it made

I am overcoming it by doing little stretches & yoga .

Breastfeeding is natural & normal but it's not straight forward & simple...For me it's too difficult & too easy also...i have premature baby...baby in NICU for 2 months...I have continuous leaking milk from beast (it's God gifted to me ) as baby in NICU so daily reaching milk for her in hospital as well as I did donate milk also....Initially it's too easy by using pump I donated & my baby also drink it in hospital but when baby in my hand challenge is lacting problem...she can't...Initially at home for few days I did give milk by spoon only..then 1 day whole night I tried directly it's difficult 1-2 days then thank God I can also do normally breastfeeding to my baby & she's also comfortable...

So many problems: Stitches, depression, stress, advices, low milk production etc and so many solutions: Jeera powder, satavari powder, satavari laddus, breastpump etc etc.
But what learned is that Mother is a Mother, even she is not able to feed breastmilk. Her love is not limited to the milk, so for all the moms who are not able to produce enough milk for baby please dont feel bad beacuse : *Being a mother is the most rewarding blessing in the world and the relation with the baby is ineffable*
