I’ve been having a hard time finding someone to trade with; would anyone be willing to trade so we can both take part in the new challenge, even just random duplicates?

Hi everyone,
I am a little out of place here at the moment, but I was hoping to get some advice.
I’m 3.5 months postpartum and I’ve been exclusively breastfeeding since birth. However, it’s been a difficult journey from the start.
I had almost no milk supply, and I was really worried my baby wasn’t getting enough. Then it swung the other way and I had an oversupply, which led to almost getting mastitis. After that came a lot of pain and latch issues, and I ended up using a nipple shield for a while. We eventually improved things, but then I had another close call with mastitis again.
Every time I think things are more stable, something new happens, and honestly breastfeeding still doesn’t feel easy or sustainable for me. I want to keep breastfeeding for my baby, but not because it feels good or manageable for me. I mostly feel guilty and anxious about the idea of switching to formula or even combo feeding.
I guess I’m here because I’d really love to hear from others who’ve gone through something similar. What helped you make the decision and not feel guilty about it? And most importantly, how did it go for you and your baby after switching?
Thank you all. ❤️
