Is this stupid guilt to have?

DS is 3 next month, due our DD next April! (Found out by early gender scan so unless future scans say boy - she’s our daughter lol!)

I have thought about breastfeeding this time round

With DS I never, I was just so scared of failing I formula fed as I thought I need to put as little pressure on myself as a first time mum and I feel breast feeding has more pressure than bottle (due to supply and everything)

However I’m not sure if it’s hormones or me being plain silly, I felt guilty thinking if I breastfeed DD and I never with DS is that mean I never done the same for both?
when he’s older if he randomly asks and I said you were fed different would he be really upset and wonder why?

I have all this guilt in me!!!! I’m also worried about the demand of BF if he’ll be okay as I’ll have the baby on me a lot more as witn BF other people can’t feed them (this is if I do and can BF)’

did anyone here feed their kids differently ?? Am I being silly worrying about this

I think if your son is fed and healthy then you did your job whether it was BF or formula.

I wouldn't feel guilt at attempting to BF your DD not having BF your DS. You're putting unnecessary worry on yourself. Try not overthink, I very much doubt your son will ask you/hold it against you in the future...

A fed baby is all that matters.
