Hi! I may have a warped opinion of what bf is like, but I imagine lots of mums with their babies enjoying lovely snuggle feeds where lo goes on like a dream , swallows a tonne of milk and comes off fast asleep or smiling. There's no pain or fussing and the baby is gaining weight like a dream. Then I think of the reality of it...for us... Problem after problem, feeling no one else can really help, except on mn of course, and actually we have had a lot of support, but it feels like we are on our own most of the time. So I don't want to go into all the problems here again, but .... Is anyone else in the same boat? Carrying on even though it's really hard? Questioning whether to carry on . Not stopping because it's best for lo and bound to get easier at some point. I just thought it might be nice to support each other on this thread. My lo is 13 weeks, and I really do hope I will be sat there giving him his first solids at 6 months knowing he has only had bm, but my goodness it is hard...
