As the title states, I feel alone in my decision not to breastfeed. I just came here for support. I don't think breastfeeding is for me, and I think it will just be difficult and painful. There's a multitude of reasons, and I feel like the only people supportive of my decision are my mom and my husband. I see so much about breastfeeding online that it makes me feel like I'll be a bad mother simply because I don't want to go through it.I don't think breast is always best. I think whatever makes mom the most comfortable is best. I have an issue with one of my areolas that would make it especially painful to feed a baby, let alone anything else. If you're a breastfeeding mom, more power to you. I just can't imagine myself doing it. I hope I'm not alone. Thanks for reading I guessEdit: I'm getting some supportive comments and I'm starting to feel so much better after only a few. Thank you to all you moms who are commenting on this. You're all wonderful and I'm very happy I posted this today! This is also my first child. I'm very nervous and I only have one female friend who is a mom that understands how I feel. Even though there's only a few comments on the post right now, I feel an overwhelming sense of support from the moms on this subreddit and it feels great. Thank you all and thank you so much to anyone who comments further! via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2I85UwL
