Day 7 and feeling happier- I did it!

[Pregnot]

Ok so this morning I was devastated and I'm sure I will be again however today I achieved something amazing lol

My friend came round I was upset thinking I can't do anything , all I do is feed wtc anyway she said let's go out so we did I fed outside in car before getting out at shopping park then did some shopping then fed in costa coffee whilst having some lunch he was dead good just had his milk and went off to sleep

Then went to the farm and on way home went to asda where max decided he was hungry again well nowhere to feed but I'm not feeding my little baby in a toilet so sat in cafe and fed him
There

He was happy and full of milk again I'm so pleased with myself and couldn't thank my friend enough
I'm sure tiredness will set in again n il be moaning but today showed me I can still do things just take me longer

Ahh that's really good well done I just read your other thread now, and whilst Jake doesn't feed constantly (I can reliably get 2-3 hours between most feeds) I do feel quite chained to the house. He fusses so much about getting fed, that I'm not brave enough to feed in public yet, because my boob would be well and truly on show!! I think you've done pretty amazing doing it after a week xx

Well done! So impressed. Henry latches on fine and feeds fine but like tigger I think my nipple and boob would be well and truly on show. I'm used to sitting at home just with my bra on when I feed him. Know I need to do it at some point but not feeling very brave yet. Got my brother and sister in law coming up this weekend so they'll be here a lot so ill have to get used to being a bit more discreet with having my nipple hanging out!

Well done for getting out! I first got out with my son when he was 3 days old as i had been stuck in hospital for the a few days having him and i was getting cabin fever. My husband and i only popped into town to buy him some boys clothes but i ended up sitting in a cafe for nearly 4 hours feeding him, having lunch, then coffee and cake and feeding him more and to be honest, it was bliss! I have a fab group from NCT and we would also just go round each others houses and feed. It is pretty intense for a while but it honestly does get easier. Also, after 6 weeks i started expressing so hubby could do the late evening feeds and i could go to bed for a few hours or so. I found that my son actually fed less but better if i was out and about (although i still had plenty of pyjama days at home and still do!)We're now nearly a year into our breast feeding journey and i still love it. Keep up the good work and be gentle on yourself!X
