Bear with me, I’ve posted this here because I don’t think it’s a feminist issue and I want to unpick my thoughts.
I struggle with my reasons for not BF one of my children.
I was put in a position where the decision was out of my hands.
I do think the comments around “did you try could have tried different should have tried that” are almost victim blaming and they make me very very angry and feel disbelieved.
I attempted suicide due to the horrendous time I had feeding that child. There was eons of support. I did the absolute best I could.
So why am I not just believed?
Please bear with me.My thoughts in this I find distressing and I’m trying to understand and unpick how I feel.
