my most difficult journey in my breastfeeding is my in-laws and other people who said isko uper ka dudh lga do vrna tang krega isko pani pilaya kro piyas lgti hogi and before his 6 month, I don't know why people think like that, we all know baby before month only need breastfeeding and I don't care log Kya kehte h or mene breastfeeding continue rkhi yaha tak ki ladai v hui mere in laws se ye sirf baby k liye kyuki breastfeeding bhut important h baby k liye.

Every breastfeeding mom journey is different and difficult ,also at the same time challenging as per the situation.
Many mother stop breastfeeding soon after they return to work but for me it is work from home so i was not willing to miss this opportunity to feed my baby .At times it is work demand that needs commitment.
I found it very tiring my baby will sleep around 3am at night with cluster 4 to 5 feed demands and the very next day along with household work ,office work ,baby solids rejection(sometimes not always) , formula rejection(my baby hates it).. I have to face challenges.untill one year we can't give him cow milk and formula he is not willing to take this is a real pain . Breastfeeding is the option left .Most difficult part is to stay calm and not to lose patience on your child .The journey is different and but it is leading to something precious ,that smile and your baby voice will heal all the pains at the end .
Also some people will make your journey more difficult so never listen to any other advices (suno sbki Karo apni mantra always worked for me)..you have planned your baby so always remember you are the only one who needs to be with baby to take care .The bonding you will always remember.

Self doubt weather my milk is sufficient for baby or not, nevertheless I make sure how much he is pooping and urinating ....and because of breastfeeding got the posture issue .

I had a c-section delivery and the very next day I struggled to feed my baby as he was not taking it. My husband went out in rush and brought a breast pump. The moment was so heart breaking for me as to breastfeed my baby was all my desire throughout my pregnancy. I always wanted I will breastfeed him .
The moment my husband put that breast pump in my hand I made a harsh decision and took my baby to my breast forcefully.
And believe me he started having it .

Suddenly after 3 months he stopped taking breastfeed again. I tried and cried a lot. I took him to 3 doctors to know what had happened to my baby. I tried every position so that he can take it but he didn't.
My husband shared a U- tube video, from what I got to know about baby on strike . In that case many babies takes few days and comes back to breastfeeding again. The only thing that you have to keep in mind that whatsoever the situation is don't try to feed baby through bottles and cow milk. Just express it and feed with a spoon .
And again he started taking breastfeed after 7 days of strike 😂 but in a lying position. Still not taking it through lying in my lap .
