Being a new mother is exhausting as it is, but motherhood also comes with societal pressures that dictate how you parent your children.
One issue that can hit a nerve is breastfeeding - with many mums being shamed for choosing not to breastfeed their children, or for not being able to.
For those who do breastfeed their babies, there's even more judgement, from people who think women shouldn't do so in public places.
Mums have to fight off such judgement from strangers all the time, but what happens when the nasty jibes are coming from those closest to them?

One new mum who breastfeeds her daughter claims her husband and father of the child has been judging her for breastfeeding while in public.
Taking to Reddit to express her dismay, the anonymous mum explained she was visiting her in-laws when she became engorged.
This is what happens when the breast begins to swell from a build up of fluid - in this case, breast milk.
The mum explains she had to get her daughter to latch onto her breast and concentrate so she didn't delatch - or the milk would have spurted everywhere.
Knowing she had to breastfeed her baby pretty quickly, the mum said she chose to sit on the messy sofa in the living room and put a cover-up over her shoulder.
She said: "I put on a coverup but she pulled part of it off because she is a baby."
The mum explained this left part of her breast exposed in the living room - although she added she was sitting behind a big pile of clothes so no one could see her.
But the anonymous mum claimed her husband wasn't particularly pleased with her choice to breastfeed at his parents' house.
She said: "[My husband] came by with a brownie and told me there were kids and I should cover up."
Upset by his request, she told him to leave her alone.
Then, when they got home, the mum claims her husband told her: "You know how uncomfortable I am when you do that."
In response, the mum said she "flipped out" and hit back at him.
"Not only does he not support me when I am the ONLY one with the burden of breastfeeding, he has to pull me down? I am beyond upset! I find this so inconsiderate and beyond selfish," she explained.
Asking others for their opinions on whether she was unreasonable for getting upset, most people took the mum's side.
One person joked if her husband was so uncomfortable, he should practice and learn how to breastfeed their daughter instead.
Another said: "Your husband isn't being supportive or nice. I would start throwing a blanket over his head every time he eats and tell him he's embarrassing you."
