As everyone else has said... you need to do what is right for you and your family and not anyone else's! Here are a few stories below from myself and friends
I decided to breastfeed but stopped at 4 months due to attachment issues etc BUT I was quite relieved to stop as I used to get anxious about leaving the house and breastfeeding out and about as I wasn't 100% comfortable with it. It was also a godsend to be able to have my DH feed our DS on a Saturday night so I could get some sleep or even just to have a bath etc when DH came home from work and not have to worry about feed times.
My SIL stopped breastfeeding at 6 weeks due to lifestyle and she hated the whole sensation of breastfeeding and also wanted her body back.
A friend from MG never breastfed as she finds the thought of it unappealing.
A girlfriend is pg at the moment and she is also tossing up whether to breastfeed or not. She has F cup boobs and also dislikes her breasts.
I don't know if that has helped at all but PLEASE don't feel bad for having these thoughts... they are NOT bad!!! If you want some more info check out the ABA website and also the threads on bfing and FF on here. Good luck with your decision and whatever you decide will be right for you... you won't make the wrong choice![]()
