My mum BF me for a little while, not sure how long, maybe 8 weeks? She had inverted nipples, attachment issues & I was a lazy sucker - she was sent home from hospital & told 'she'll feed when she's hungry'. Zero support back then
Of course I didn't feed (not very well, anyway) and we both had long crying sessions, me because I was hungry, she because she was sitting on her own (Dad off at work, no family or friends nearby) with a fussy baby who wouldn't feed.
She didn't try to BF with my sister.

I really wanted to BF; I fed DD1 for a week, came home expressing with cracked bleeding & scabby nipples and I just couldn't keep it up.
I fed DS1 for 8 weeks until I thought he needed formula. Nobody explained to me that it's normal to have growth spurts or for BF babies to poo less
DS2 was fed for 14 months and was a fantastic experience, I felt like I had finally got it right.
DD2 is currently still drinking EBM & has been since day 4.

I don't think mum influenced my decisions; breastfeeding is the 'default' option for me, always has been & if it doesn't work, then you try something else.
