I am so delighted to be able to say that I have now been breastfeeding for six months.
I really did not think I would get to this point. Things got off to a very rough start and H was sent out to buy formula and bottles. Thanks to this board they remain unused.
I have been lurking on MN for about a year so you won't recognise my name, but I am really indebted to the people who post here. I don't know anyone in RL who has breastfed successfully and this place has been like a surrogate community for me. Seeing other people posting about the same problems I experienced helped me so much. The best advice I picked up from here was
"Never Give Up At Night"
"Just get through today, don't think about tomorrow"
Somehow I stopped counting the days and started to really enjoy it.
So thank you from my gorgeously chubby dd and from me, grinning ear to ear
