its been almost 4 months since my (first and only) Baby girl was born and im really enjoying breastfeeding & of course she does too. im so glad i decided to give it my all and stick with because its become so easy & natural & great bonding time. We relax in bed and just enjoy eachother during night feedings. i think ill be so sad once i stop & she is already gtting so big. i initially wanted to stop around 6 months, but now im aiming towards 12. Such an awesome experience & i think all women should at least try it.
it gets tough sometimes i know, like my baby didnt like bottles for a while and was so attached, but after about the second month she started understanding better and at about 3 months i realized she just wanted me . it made being a mom so much more rewarding . its truly an awesome experience, plus on a positive note, you dont have to get up at night to make bottles smh. we learned how to eat ,feed and sleep so naturally. dont worry love, youll get past that stage and youll be glad you did !!
I stopped breastfeeding my first born at 13 months due to the fact that I was pregnant with my 2nd daughter..... boy weaning her off was HARD work! she missed my breast so much that during the night she used to cry a lot and it killed me on the inside.... but she got 13 months of my healthy breast milk.....
@iqrahp5, thats awesome!!! i hope i dont get pregnant right away , although id love another , i want to breast feed for at least 12 months. thats sweetie, that was helpful
