Breastfeeding

My mom has been a La Leche League leader for over 25 years.  She breastfed all four her daughters and tandem nursed twice.  I was almost five years old when I stopped breastfeeding.  I know that seems crazy!

While I was pregnant I never really thought about breast or bottle.  Of course I wold breastfeed that is how God made us! 

It is so funny, just the other day my mom said that of all four her daughters I , she thought I would be the one to bottle feed.

I grew up around breastfeeding mothers, I didn't really know anything else!  Besides why would you wnt to shove a plastic gross thing in your baby's mouth, when you cab give her a nice, warm and soft boobie to drink from.

Breastfeeding is my passion, and I would take on any one about the benefits and bond.

At first it was really hard, and it hurt like hell.  I bled and cried! She was on the breast 24/7 and that was a very emotional time for me.

Even so I would never give up breastfeeding !

It is so special, and something only I can do for her!  There are still days that it doesn't really work for me.  But I still don't want a cow to raise me a healthy baby.

I will definitively be saying allot more  about breastfeeding in posts to come!!!!!
