Needing to stop breastfeeding for medical reason

@jhonkim Omg mama!! PLEASE remember that you still exist. Yes, your baby is the center of your universe. AND you are still a human being who deserves to be well. A healthy mom is paramount to a healthy, thriving baby. You matter. It is okay to grieve the ending of your breastfeeding journey, but please don’t let the guilt consume you. You are SUCH A GREAT MOM!! You really are. That you would even consider enduring prolapse just to continue supplying your daughter with milk is quite possibly the most selflessly admirable thing I’ve ever heard. There’s donor milk, there are lots of different formula options, you baby will thrive!! Because you’ll make sure of it. You’re THAT mom. Please be kind to yourself. You deserve some of that kind of love too, ya know.
 
@jhonkim Let go of the guilt. You want to be able to heal to live life with her and chase and play and smile and laugh.

You can be sad about the way that this isn’t how you wanted it to go but you will find the joy in all the things you can do with it being healed.
