Formula? BreastMilk

Did I feed my kid Formula or BreastMilk? In my journey of motherhood, the first three days were difficult for feeding.  I had given formula for two days. Wish I had known about the kangaroo feeding method which I could have used for getting the golden hours of milk. Kangaroo process-  The baby and mom get ample amount of skin to skin and the baby is held by someone and made him feed. I feed my kid BreastMilk till the age of 2  and a half years. It was worth the journey and the bonding. Research says no other food or milk can give the kid required nutrition other than BreastMilk.

Motherhood-which noone told you about

Those two red lines change your world upside down. Happiness and fear which takes place with total excitement. Just someone doesn't tell you, what all it comes with. Your mother who you feel is very healthy or has so many health issues were just given by you. Which she just accepted it happily and lovingly without complaining about it to you ever. She was as beautiful as now just with maintained body weight without even going to a gym. So pregnancy never tells you nor someone never tells you, your body is never going to be same ever. The wasit which was always cherished and proudly fitted into your skinny jeans won't be able to fit in for 9 months or may be never after that. Sleepless nights deciding to sleep on the left side or right side is what is the struggle on. As the months pass the need to urinate increases,  ever-increasing need to use the washroom.
