Why so judgemental?
Ohhh the looks we get from people around.. As a mother I am sure almost all of us have seen people around assessing our every move and every action.
We are judged for feeding in public, when our little toddlers have a heap of energy are are running around in the mall like a little lamb without direction, when our little one is uncomfortable and starts crying in the plane. From the choices we make while feeding them, dressing them and even to the point of how we are raising them.
People don't think of pain we as mothers go through before passing these judgements.

;

From the day I delivered people judged me because i did not produce enough breast milk in the beginning and that was the topic of discussion for all the relatives who came to visit my newborn ( as if my mind is not messed up enough with all crazy hormones that I needed that as well). It really took a toll on my mind and i made me feel incapable to feed my little one.

And funny enough I exclusively breastfeed my baby for 18 months without any top ups or bottle feeds.

And now that same set of people were back again judging me (funny enough) for feeding my baby even after 12 months and gave me suggestions about different methods to help me stop breastfeeding (as if i wanted it). Not feeding is a problem, feeding for more months than they did is also a problem. (is it their choice or ours).
Now this is what we can call double standard society. I feel it is so important for us to get thick skinned and not be affected by this judgy people around us.

We should follow our own instincts, do whatever is suitable and comfortable for you and your baby.
People will see, will judge and will talk for a few moments and find something else. Let us not get affected by it and lose our confidence because I assure you we are all doing all that we can and as best as we can. Have faith in yourself because your baby chose you to be their mother and they love you unconditionally.
Till next time then,

Love
