Breastfeeding 2nd time round.

[x.Lilly.x]

I breastfed my son for 3 months, and loved it.
I would love to breastfeed my 2nd child for at least that long r hopefully longer, I just wonder how people do it when they have other children?
As breastfeeding ultimately takes longer than bottle feeding and they want more, so does your child get fed up and throw tantrums etc?

Good idea Evie! Jacob loves his milk even now he has cow and gate toddler milk in a baby bottle for comfort as he doesnt use a dummy

Thanks for this post! I b/f my DD for 4 months and loved it, cocked up and introduced formula which ended up drying milk up so had to stop but this time round I plan to feed until baby weans off, a year if they'll go that long. I hope to be able to use a sling and breastfeed handsfree. DD fed every hour and a half for 6 weeks then every 2 &1/2 hours so incase it's like that this time I'll need to be mobile while feeding
