Breastfeeding isn’t a guarantee that there won’t be any problems. I’ve been breastfeeding for over a year now, but unfortunately my baby showed symptoms of food allergies, such as diarrhea, starting at 2 weeks old. I suffered from postpartum depression for several months, I think in large part due to the stress caused by trying to manage our food allergies. I’m glad I’ve been able to breastfeed this long, but I’m sometimes frustrated with the claims people make about breastfeeding.
