Breastfeeding Posts

From a newborn who wouldn't stay awake to nurse for nourishment, to my constantly lowering milk supply, from the exhausting work of pumping and breastfeeding both every single day, to bleeding nipples, and finally a baby weaning himself cold turkey -- I am proud to say I successfully breastfed for nine months. It was the hardest thing I ever did in my life, but very worth it, as you can read in the following posts:
