Support Needed / Guilt Related 🧸 Regret?

Did you feel regret about not breastfeeding after a while?

At first I definitely felt guilty but I’m almost 2 months in and now I just feel regret that I didn’t try harder instead. I only tried to breastfeed once in the hospital but I already knew in my heart that I’d be a much happier mom not breastfeeding.

But still why didn’t I keep going?? 🙃

I’ve actually never felt any regret and I feel guilty that I haven’t 😅I’ve EFF both my kids from birth. I just know in my gut that I would’ve been in a really bad place if I even tried to breastfeed, my mental health during pregnancy was not good.
