- I'm getting alot of grief lately for saying how I want to breastfeed my baby when he comes. Not so much from my family but from other people and a few 'friends' even at my last doctor appointment it was a girl filling in for my doctor as my doctor was out. I told her I was planning to breastfeed and she gasped and said that I shouldn't bother trying and a teen like me won't be able to breastfeed my child as I will give up straight away. I just ignored it but now its really upsetting me. Also a few of my friends are like thinking its so wierd that I'm going to feed my child and stuff. Now though the doctors comments are getting to me. I'm thinking of making a complaint. Ahh! Did any other teen mums who breastfed get grief?

i didnt breastfeed Kayden there wasnt alot of support back then. and im breast feeding Kaitlynn and my god is it hard work. but soooooo worth it. xx

if you have any questions hun feel free to pm me id be happy to help.
ive been through really hard times with it because i didnt get much help, but ive got through it. sometimes the midwifes dont tell you everything you need to know, but ive learnt from doing. its completely worth it. i wouldnt care what anyone else thinks.. what you wanna do is amazing. and its the best start for your baby. for some reason people think its odd, but all your doing is feeding your child. babies love being close to you too, its a big comfort for them. its your choice, no one elses - this is your baby. but if you want help with anything just send me a pm xxxx
