I wanted to share my story of my breastfeeding journey because I think it can help a lot of people. I have IGT (insufficient glandular tissue), also known as mammary hypoplasia or hypoplastic breasts. Basically, I don’t have enough milk-producing tissue in my breasts to exclusively breastfeed my son. It took a lot of effort on my part, four lactation consultants, and a few visits to my doctor over the course of 6-7 weeks, to find out that this was my issue. I wish that people discussed what to do when breastfeeding just doesn’t work because when I was told to supplement with formula, I had only one bottle at home, some sample formula, and no idea of how much was appropriate for my son’s age because no one discusses it. All we hear is “breast is best!” We never hear the other side of things when it doesn’t work out or heck, if you just choose from the start to only give your baby formula. There needs to be less judgment from others as well. Please don’t comment below if you want to tell me I didn’t try hard enough or give me suggestions of things to try, I guarantee I’ve been there and done that. This is solely to share my story and possibly give some comfort to other moms who are struggling with breastfeeding. All love here!
