Breastfeeding! who's done it? who plans on doing it? if you don't, do you mind saying why? I'm in…

I do! My son has only had breast milk and is going on 4 months! If you ever have any questions you can always ask me.!

I plan to breastfeed

I did for a month, I was not prepared for how hard/frustrating it was going to be. I plan on trying again this time around. if you do decide to, definitely do your research and don't give up(:

I plan on it

This is my second time exclusively breastfeeding. The first I did for a full year and we are on week 6 now with my second.

I'm doing it.

@anim, thanks. the main question I have for now is, is it hard to get him to latch on or was it easy for you?

thanks, that's what I'm afraid of @kmunoz I feel like if I can't do it I'll just pump and still feed him breastmilk but I really hope I can have that bond with him by actually breastfeeding

I did both and I was so stressed out I lost my supply. You'll do good just be prepared and know its going to be a lot of work. I wish I tried harder, but regardless my baby is happy, healthy and smart (: She will be one next month. Good luck(:

No it wasn't :/ I had a lot of help from lactation consultants. The ones in the hospital are usually there 24/7 and will come help you with any questions you have! My son has had 100% breast milk since birth but I began exclusively pumping at about 1 1/2 weeks because he wouldn't latch and I had a c section so it was hard to hold him on me :/ I still pump and I have a ton of milk because of it

@kmunoz, thank you, I'll try it! god's luck with your next one

@anim, that's great to know. I'll definitely be pumping just in case latching is an issue because the breastmilk is important to me... I hope he takes to it well because I had a friend that had to give her baby formula because he wouldn't drink her milk
