Just days before giving birth to baby True, Khloé's boyfriend Tristan Thompson was caught cheating on her.
Now, the reality star is getting with with her sister Kourtney about the struggles she faced as a first-time mom!
"I think being a mom in and of itself is such a hard, but rewarding, beautiful job and everyone’s just trying to figure out what’s best for them and what works for their life. I think it’s ridiculous when people pass judgment when they don’t even know their entire situation," she started.

"For me, I remember I used to get almost frustrated with you [Kourtney]—not that you even did anything—but you would just talk about this experience you had, and how beautiful [it was]. You would say things not at all trying to criticize me, but I would take it like, it’s not that easy."
Khloé then opened up about the impact the stress had on her ability to breastfeed.

"There was a lot going on in my life at the time. That, I think, played a part in why I wasn’t producing [milk] as easily,” she explained.
She admitted she felt bad about giving True formula for the first time: "I felt like I’d failed."
She continued: "It sucked. I hated every minute of it. It was torture. I always felt like I was never giving True enough food. I felt like she was always hungry."
“Once I stopped [breastfeeding] though, the amount of pressure that was lifted off my shoulders and I could enjoy my daughter."
"I’m all for breastfeeding, I tried, but if you can’t do it you don’t have to feel like a failure."
What an awesome and important message, KoKo!
