[quote=Anonymous]1. YOU ARE NOT A FAILURE. 2. Establishing breastfeeding is hard under ideal circumstances. You're dealing with a lot right now. it's okay to use a shield. I used shields for the first 12 weeks. Baby just would not latch without one. 3. It's okay to mourn the breastfeeding experience you thought you would have. 4. It's okay to say "this isn't working, we're switching to formula" if that's the right choice for you. 5. Your DH needs to step it up right now and shut down his mother. How baby is fed, the details of feeding, none of it is her business if you decide its not her business. And if she will not respect that, firm boundaries need to be established and enforced by DH. His #1 job right now is to support you. If is mother is causing issues, he needs to deal with that immediately. His mother, his problem. 6. See point 1. And sending you lots of virtual hugs.[/quote]
