A big thank you to you and a pat on the back...

To me! DS was 26 weeks at the weekend and has his first taste of carrot! He has been ebf, despite me having repeated mastitis, ductal thrush, an abscess the size of half a tennis ball that required multiple aspirations/hospital visits for 3 months and returning to work 3 days a week when DS was 4 months old (there is a regimented 'milky moo' pump program in this house!)

I wouldn't have been able to get this far without the help I have had from posting here and reading other peoples posts. I am hoping to continue for a little while yet and feel nothing but pride when I get the quizical, 'still feeding that baby?!' comments! Yes, yes I am and it's very much thanks to you all

Brava You have every right to be proud of what you've achieved, it's amazing considering all that you've overcome.

massive congratulations

its a great feeling.... my dd is 24 weeks and only now am i accepting that i might actually achieve my goal of breast milk only for 6m.....

and it wouldnt have been possible without help / support / encouragement from here too
