I thought I would feel sad when breastfeeding came to an end but I have to admit it is great.No more easy access tops,breast pads,non-underwire bra's,grinding gums on my poor tender nipples.

So off I go to buy some wildly inappropriate push up bra's.

Well if you ever have your nipples bitten again, I'll assume it's for a whole other reason Grin

You rest your thumb gently on the baby's chin. If you sense their jaw tightening as if the may bite, you stop them. Being bitten is not a requirement of breast feeding.

It's not the law that you have to miss these things!

I was also cheerful when I stopped BF both of mine Smile

My main gripe was my leaky boobs, having to wear a bra in bed.

I usually sleep naked and I hated that.

LMAO.
DH will never again get squirted in a fit of excitement.

YANBU - I am looking forward to this too!

Don't forget a polo neck and a shift dress while you're out!

No! I cannot wait!

I will never again flash my boobs in the middle of the local cafe because DC has decided its better to have a look around and I havent noticed that my boob is just hanging out there with no baby head to cover it.

MillyR DC just gave it up herself,prefers solid food.

I miss the close cuddles, but he was old enough to finish anyway. I do not miss the trying to turn over whilst holding a nipple in the mouth so that it stretches to about 2cm long.

I found immediately putting baby down when the clamped down too hard worked. started this early before there were teeth.

i really enjoyed bf my two. but stopped feeding my 2nd as he drank loads and occasionally made me dizzy as if life source being drained from me. although a nice experience i'm done. shame not many bf around my area as it is great but i've set the example to my dd and she bf all her dolls which was very funny at nursery.
