Yay for world breastfeeding week 💖🤱 I wonder how many hours we have spent like this, cuddled up nursing, either to sleep, or because of a boo boo or a cold, or just because he needed extra love from momma. Going on 21 months, there is a world of difference nursing a toddler and an infant. It used to seem like he could live attached to me, at times I wanted to quit when it felt like there was rarely a time I wasn't needed or attached to my tiny baby. But now as much as he loves his milkies for the most part he would rather be up and playing with a cup of water or almond milk in his hand. I love my sweet boy so much, and there's nothing I would change about my choice to nurse into toddlerhood. He still comes to me for nourishment, comfort, and security. I used to be afraid of rude comments from people who don't understand why people choose to breastfeed, but if we don't talk about it and show it it will still be taboo and moms will feel like they should have to stop before they and their baby are ready. So to any moms out there who feel pressured into quitting the first few weeks, months, or anytime before they feel is right, keep on nursing! The only opinions that matter are your own and your child's.

@charlottebellesmama you are seriously a super mom! Pumping so hard, I had to for a couple weeks in the beginning and I didnt know if I was gonna be able to keep it up. It's amazing you still did what you could for your little one to be so premature, way to go! ❤

You’re awesome! My daughter was a 25 week preemie and I always wished I could have had that connection with her. Sadly, I never got to breast feed, but I pumped like a mad lady. And I was proud to be able to at least provide my milk for her g tube. Hubby and I are trying for baby #2 and I hope I will finally have the chance to breast feed.

@cbrebelkat thank you! I'm sorry to hear your nursing was cut short, 2 and a half months is still an amazing accomplishment!

Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no, his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?

Will your Mom be in the delivery room?

Will your Mom be in the delivery room? My mom made it sound like she was gonna be in the delivery room when I give birth, and quite frankly, I would just like it to be me and my fiancé. It's our first, and I want to share that special moment with just him. I don't want to hurt her feelings, and I know this is something she would really like to be a part of. So I feel bad telling her no.

@itsamemario, you deleted your post before I could hit send but this is my comment: I don’t know if this answers your question but this is my answer. My son is 7 and he knows race and color. Why? Because he himself comes from a family that is multi racial and because he has already experienced racism. I also believe as his mother it’s my job to teach him color and the cold hard truth about society. He knows what’s going on in this world. I’d be hurting him if I allowed him to blindly walk outside without this information. Children of color are being targeted and killed too. It’s not just adults. I let my son know we treat everyone equally and with respect. I let him know that we love everyone for their differences. In every aspect. Color, race, ethnicity, religion, sexual preference we love everyone.
