Hello,
I hope to find some similar minded women here on this board. I'm a mother of four and I love my children a lot. I did breast feed the first two of my children exclusively but with number 3 I couldn't' manage any longer. The children are about 2 years away from each other. I have a lovely husband and a great family who are supporting me and also my decision to formula feed my babies. In our community I feel like the black sheep and it really is a hard time for me because in this community I thought to have my friends and backing whatever is going to happen in my life. I don't really want to join community events any more because I'm scared that I just get left outside or even worse people are talking to me and telling me what I'm doing wrong. I would be great to talk with someone, maybe this is the place?
Thanks for listening!
Susan

You are a mother with four children and this is great but also very challenging. At least or I think most important is that your close family and friends are supporting you. For sure you don't want to lose to be part in the community but when they don't respect you, they are not worth it. You will find other ways and other people who love and respect you and your choices. When you feel strong enough you can also just go there and let them talk, I guess it is not everyone who is feeling and behaving like you were describing it. Maybe there are some who are willing to support you but are scared of the same things like you are. Think about it and decide what is best for you! Yours, Lucy

Hi Lucy,
too bad you are not around! Your words already helped me a lot. You are right, I'm happy that I have my family and my friends. I couldn't imagine without them!
