I so agree! Some people are able to breastfeed better than others. I would never judge a mother who couldn’t. So long as the child is well fed and cared for, who cares how they eat?

I totally wished I could have breastfed my daughter longer than I did. It was a struggle, and then with some health issues I was having, I was advised against it.

Like Uma’s thought that don’t hesitate when you feel any problem, talk to people, but surely take decision on your instincts.

Thank you for reminding us to trust our instincts. I feel like in small, non-direct, ways, moms are discouraged from doing so.

Thank you for this, I remember I couldn’t be able to breastfeed my son all through just because I was not able to produce enough milk no matter what I did and yes I did gt judged but never let it get to me. I made a decision for the better and wouldn’t change a thing.

I can just imagine how scary it must be to quit ones job to be a SAHM. But I know it to be more rewarding than any job out there. I love the concept of babywearing!

Breastfeeding is such an important time in a babies life. Not only does it provide nutrients but being close to the mother like this is also very therapeutic.

Thank you for this post. I have so many friends who have breastfed their babies and every journey is different. Trusting your instinct is such an important piece of advice that I hope to pass on to them.

Oh i love Uma and the owl motif. I love the online village support system your features give to mothers universally. Following your instincts and knowing that you are supported can really go a long way in a mom’s bf’ing journey.

I love to read other mom’s stories. I, too didn’t know breastfeeding wouldn’t just be a natural thing. But, indeed it can be hard and painful and downright unpleasant. There is also amazing parts of it including the bond. I love the idea of feeding baby from the heart- breastfeeding is for sure a labor of love!

Aw! I love reading stories and hearing about other people’s breastfeeding/baby wearing journeys. My youngest just turned 2 and does not want to be carried at all anymore. She stopped nursing at about 14 months. I knew she was my last so I prolonged it a little. I know I’ll always miss my littles.

I breast fed all of my kids. It’s a hard journey but worth it. I will also tell you it was not the same journey for all the kids. They all were different.

I LOVE THIS! I agree. A lot of mommies don’t have the honor to breastfeed their little ones but as long as they are fed who cares. Or if you choose not to breastfeed who cares! I am 11 months strong and I am happy about it yet others are questioning when am i stopping.

Agree that breastfeeding is a personal decision. It wary from mother to mother. I breastfed both my children but my youngest I breastfed him the longest. I was so afraid that weaning him will be a challenge but it only took us 3 days to wean him.
