I needed to hear that as a mom, i can trust my instinct. Immediately post-partum i second guessed myself a lot if i was making the right choice for my baby, choosing to continue to try and nurse, because it was important to me, and later on, introducing formula, when it felt right to me. I was allowed to follow my gut because months later, im happy with the choices i made. And i gave myself a very difficult time because people close to me said differently at the time we had to make those choices. Im grateful I had a supportive partner, but me doubting myself every step of the way was harder on both of us. I was a first time mom, and so i felt everyone else with kids had more experience than me. But everyone is different, every baby is different, every experience is different.. trust yourself mama- you know whats best.
