This woman has a very blunt answer to why she is ‘quitting breastfeeding’

Reality star Camaron Eubanks has shared an honest and open post about breastfeeding, where she announces that she is ‘retiring the boobs’.

The star, who is best known for Real World: San Diego and Southern Charm, wanted to let people know that it’s OK to admit that you don’t want to breastfeed.

She tried it for 3 months at which point she decided it wasn’t for her. She wants women not to judge other mothers for their decisions.

In the post she said:

“Today marks the day I am DONE with breastfeeding. Gave it a good almost three months and I am retiring the boobs. Writing this in hopes it will make other mothers feel less alone.

You see, I’m not quitting because my milk supply dried up or because I’m sick . . . I’m quitting because I’m just plain OVER IT. By CHOICE.

I know I will get lectured and judged by this but it doesn’t bother me. I need some freedom back for my sanity and the bottle and formula will allow that. You are not a bad mother if you don’t like breastfeeding.

A happy mama is the best gift you can give your baby (at least in my opinion).”

Here is the post:

I know I’m opening up the flood gates with this one.?
