RANT RANT RANT!

Aih! Elderly people just don’t understand how breastfeeding or expressed breastmilk is like (even after explaining to them that our yield is never an exact amount every time..).. When i DL baby, they will ask “sure baby enough or not? later baby cry again...”... if its EBM, they will ask “why some times you feed 100ml, sometimes 90ml, sometimes 120ml?”.. As long as I know baby’s growing well. Isn’t that most important. Why question the way I’m raising my child. Then they compare between their other grandchildren (whom by the way is supplemented with FM) vs my LO (fully BM).. ?

Most of them at their time, dont breast feed. So they dont have the knowledge. Old ppl are like that, sometimes they jus comment for sake of commenting. So just ignore them and walk away.. makes life easier

I totally get it!! they will always doubt our supply and whether it is really that nutritional for them. always on a debate to supplement with formula.. well.. just do what u deemed best for the child.

Haiz, yeah they don't understand... But then again, they are basing it off from their old methods and know-hows. Just remember that and breatheeee

Just ignore. Naysayers always have things to say. Every mummies would want the best for her child. So press on!
