Comments on: Why breastfeeding was the best choice for us. https://ourknightlife.com/2010/09/normal-0-false-false-false.html Las Vegas Mom Blogger | Family, Fitness, Product Reviews Tue, 11 Feb 2014 21:04:34 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.6.1 By: Stephanie-jean Life:SemiCrunchy https://ourknightlife.com/2010/09/normal-0-false-false-false.html#comment-3957 Sun, 03 Oct 2010 05:01:45 +0000 http://familylifeinlv.com/?p=261#comment-3957 Thank you for sharing your story 🙂 I breastfeed my son until his first birthday (when he self weaned). My daughter is now 9 months and showing no interest in stopping… so I think she will probably go for at least 15 months!

Yes, I had some really bittersweet feelings about weaning my son too. I think it was harder on me than it was on him to be honest! Now we get to do it again, and I'm hoping to make it as long as I can.
Thanks!

It got to the point that she would rather have her sippy cup than to nurse… it about broke my heart! But I realized that it was her first big step into the big world of becoming and individual and making those first big choices… she weaned effortlessly and thankfully at a pace that didn't leave me engorged. phew…

The second one I pumped for {she had extreme sucking issues}, for one whole year… after that, I simply could not sustain a decent flow to meet her growing demands… so she happily switched to a sippy too.

Enjoy those big milestones!

I'm jealous of all those mommies who were able to breastfeed. I was one of the unfortunate ones who could not. My milk never came in and I was becoming an emotional wreck over not being able to breastfeed. I finally had to choose to be a healthy sane mommy over a depressed mommy and I stuck with formula. I do not regret for one second stopping my attempts. After over a week of pumping every 2 hours for 15-20 minutes I would get not a single drop of milk and was about to go the medication route. I was miserable and just not there mentally at all. It was far better for my son for me to be there mentally and have the capacity to take care of him. I still got to cuddle and spend wonderful quality time with him and bond with him. He was never got sick and continued to grow at a constant rate 🙂
