Breastfeeding comes with the challenges. When my breastfeeding journey started, its very painful plus irritated because of Nipple pain, Soreness and not getting enough sleep that make me exhausted when I breastfeed my baby. So it become major source for my anxiety and guilt for not produce enough milk for my baby. These are some challenges that I faced during my breastfeeding journey. For anxiety I started yogo and meditation and I used to take time for myself do or read my favourite things. For uncomfortable breastfeeding position I uses pillow on my lap and for my back support. Nipple pain used mothersparsh nipple butter cream that really help me.

My breast feeding journey was unsuccessful even tried unlimited attempts.. my twin babies were born on the first day of lockdown.. since the first day of birth till 3-4 months I tried so many many times to give them breast milk by latching method or through pumping but I failed every time. People around me kept telling without breast milk babies can not nurture.. I almost went into depression but slowly slowly I recover myself from the stress.. Formula milk was the only source of nutrition till 6 months but after that I have many foods to them which gives enough nutrition.. now I enjoy my motherhood very well with my toddlers n they also enjoy with me..
