If not, can you tell me why not please?
And if you did, can you tell me whether you found it different or similar to feeding dc1?
I've just switched dd to formula at 9mo (she was only feeding twice a day and I've gone back to work so I was missing the morning one anyway). I'm very pleased about how breast feeding has gone and I would like to give this to dc2 (I'm 4 months pregnant). However, I never put a lot of pressure on myself to bf and I decided I'd just keep going as long as I could. I was also lucky that dd's latch was good from day one and I never experienced cracked nipples or mastitis. I am worried that I will put myself under pressure to bf dc2 and this will have a detrimental affect and I wonder how I would cope with lots of pain. I also wonder how I will cope with 1hour long+ feeds with a toddler?!
Just looking for different experiences so I can try to prepare myself.

If you breastfed dc1, did you breastfed dc2?
