Breastfeeding ended feeling sad

I have my sone who is nearly 9 months. I have breastfed him from the start it wasn’t easy at all to begin with it took about 4weeks to get it right I have loved every single minute of it and have really bonded well. I am so happy I could achieve this it’s not for the faint hearted. Just wanted to say well done to all the mummy’s our there giving it a go you are amazing in what your doing for your little ones, I didn’t want to stop breastfeeding but my son had other ideas so Sad it’s over.
