Yeah, I honestly think if I didn't have so many visitors early on, I would have been able to exclusively, successfully breastfeed. We're definitely limiting visitors the hospital to our immediate families next time. And I'll limit them visiting at home, too.
Also, they'll say newborns need to eat every two hours. Yeah, no. It's more like every 15-20 minutes for a while. For us I'd feed her, 20 minutes later she'd starting fussing and I'd be like no way she just ate, and spend another half hour changing, rocking, trying to burp her, seeing if she was warm or cold, til she screamed, then finally I'd be like ok it's been an hour now maybe she's hungry, nurse her, and meanwhile that was what she wanted all along. Once I realized that I felt like an idiot, and horrible for half-starving my baby, but no one tells you those things
