Ok, so heres the thing. I dont want to breastfeed. Or, I didn't want to breastfeed. But all i hear and all that is ever discussed is how you need to breastfeed because its better for the baby and better for mommy and better for the environment (seriously, isnt that taking it a little too far??) Then, i hear about leaking breasts and crying in the shower for months and broken boobies...ouch! I know its an ew-y topic for some, but please help if you can- was anyone undecided? Has anyone had this actually work for them? Would you do it again, either way?

I'm currently breastfeeding my second son. I really enjoyed the experience with my first son and stopped altogether at about 18 to 20 months I was pregnant with #2 and was trying to wean gently. It is challenging at first but worth it in the end, plus my first son has been very healthy only 3 colds maybe in his first 2.5 years and they all go away rather fast.

This time around has been different and a bit harder at first but it is much better now although he cluster feeds at night which gets hard when taking care of a toddler too. Since your sleep is interrupted and you get less.

Does this help?? If you have questions let me know.
