Breastfeeders - just curious...

[Maria1977]

I BF my son for 1 year. We both wanted to stop at the same time, although his decision might've been more influenced by the fact I was pregnant, and that is why I wanted to stop too. My nipples were so sensitive it made me feel ill to feed him! Also, I could tell my milk had changed taste from how he would pull away and look at my boob like 'wtf is this' lol.

If I hadn't of been pregnant again and he'd wanted to carry on I would've been happy to do so tbh.

I will BF my daughter for as long as I can also, although I'm expecting a totally different experience seeing as I will have an 18 monht to run round after also lol

12-18 months but I'll probably be back to work at 9 months so we'll just have to see what happens then

I'm going back to work after nearly 4 months so Joseph will be ff by then in the daytime but I would like to do an evening/night/morning breastfeed. I hated it with Ben and had given up by 3 weeks, this time it hasn't been easy but so much happier (me and Lo) this time so really hope I can carry on in some way. Thanks for all the advice on PF xx

I'm doing it until 6 months, I've started giving him a bed time bottle and in the last week giving him a bottle during the day, will start increasing this gradually until he's no longer feeding from me, I'll be sad to stop but I have some tablets I need to take and I can't bf with them so its kind of necessary.
