I wanted to be with my mum but I needed to be with him as well Jennifer talks about breastfeeding whilst nursing her dying mother and how she never expected to feed for so long.

“I had a little person that kept shouting and screaming at me and I wanted to be with my mum but I needed to be with him as well and my husband did take him off and we he would have formula he would have bottled he had what he needed at that point what he needed to have and for both of us really and but it was still predominantly breastfeeding. I felt so torn between the two and I was in I had massive anxiety at the time everything just feels when I look back now everything just feels really kind of dreamlike I’m not entirely sure how we got through that”
