I live with my husband's family, some of his family members try to force weaning or even tried to persuade me not to breastfeeding. When I was pregnant , my husband's nephew offered to buy bottles which were mortified and I politely refused. My mother in law always think that breastfeeding is 'superstitious' and will make me depressed - she wanted me to be a 'happy mum with a happy baby' - at first i have problem with breastfeeding because I did not know how to properly hold my baby. But i prefer breastfeeding.,and when that didn't work, my MIL told me to quit breastfeeding.
