As the title says, I've been breastfeeding Freddie for 6 months.

For all you new mummies that are finding it really hard, stick at it does get easier. I wanted to stop so often especially in those early days when all they seem to do is be attached to you. Here are few things that helped me get through it, find a breastfeeding group because sometimes you have to moan about how hard it is and sometimes people have advise to make is easier and sometimes it's nice to know you are not the only one going through it! Go out, don't be ashamed to feed in public you are doing what our bodies are designed to do! If you do find it hard feeding in public mothercare have lovely feeding rooms.

I'm going to have to stop feeding baby soon as I'm going back to work and work shifts so can't express. I hate the thought of not feeding him but know I can't do it forever.

I can't express how much I have enjoyed feeding.

Stick at it ladies your are doing a brilliant job.

Lovely post hun - really encouraging too.

Congrats on your massive milestone! It's one of the best things I've ever done - challenging, but oh so rewarding x
 
Well done Nutsyputs!! You're in the 1% of women who breastfeed past 6 months!!
 
Yay! I fully intend to be in 1 %, it will be next month. Well done you!
