[quote=Anonymous]She is trying to help, and you are sensitive. I struggled so hard with breastfeeding, wept through multiple PACE meetings, spent literally thousands of dollars on pumps and rentals and different sized flanges and LCs and books and supplements, and still get really upset when I think of how much it sucked that I couldn't make it work. If I knew someone struggling to BF right now I wouldn't say anything but I would REALLY REALLY REALLY want to say: just stop, you are allowed to stop, the baby will be fine and healthy and you will be happier. I wouldn't say it, because I remember how much it hurt when people said stuff like that to me, even though now I think they were right. Your MIL had babies when the pressure to BF wasn't as strong and if it sucked for her she has enough distance from it for it not to be fresh. She does mean well. It still hurts, I know. You're doing a good job.[/quote]
