Hi. I have an exclusively breast fed 5 month old.
I have been through many traumatic events since her birth, including her getting sick in hospital for a week when she was 2 months, my dad passing away when she was 3 months, and now yesterday she was diagnosed with a neurological disorder and I am so upset and I keep having bouts of anxiety and I feel so bad that I am crying in front of her.
Can all this sadness affect my milk? She is very fussy and upset today and I think it is because of me.
