I have just ADORED nursing. It has been such a beautiful, wonderful bonding time with my daughter. I love every minute of it. I have been excited to introduce solids, but at the same time a bit sad knowing eventually she'll be relying on those and nursing will diminish. I know it's right, it's just not easy! So I totally undertand your feelings. Nursing is a BEAUTIFUL bonding time and it is such a comfort to our babies. You are so wise though to just know Will will let you know when he's done.In Search of Morning Sicknesshttp://www.insearchofmorningsickness.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490746375774981338.post-3976228443775188222009-08-08T09:28:33.029-07:002009-08-08T09:28:33.029-07:00I'm so excited for you that you made it - thro...I'm so excited for you that you made it - through all the trials with his jaundice and everything! I know how bittersweet it must be though. Next time around, I hope I can follow your lead and actually get a nursing pattern down and stick with it. B actually nursed for 3 months and then over the last 2 I've been pumping exclusively... but slowly slowly my supply dwindling and I was down to getting enough milk for barely 1 bottle per day. So I made the executive decision to stop pumping on Thursday. And now my woobs are drying up and it's sad and weird. I'm happy? that I'll have my body back to myself but feel a huge amount of guilt that we didn't get nursing down a bit sooner and hopefully would have ensured a bit longer success. Anyway. I'll be thinking about you, but I'm truly proud that you made it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490746375774981338.post-22286357171011395452009-08-08T06:08:14.327-07:002009-08-08T06:08:14.327-07:00Never having had opportunity to breastfeed my comm...Never having had opportunity to breastfeed my comments aren't totally on par BUT ... It was tough on me when Lil Pumpkin traded cuddling with me as she gobbled her bottle for ANOTHER WOMAN -- namely, Dor.a The Expl.orer. Yes, she decided she would rather camp out on her D.ora couch and watch D.ora on tv.<br /><br />We still have our evening cuddle though, as we read bedtime stories.<br /><br />Funny how some things we would like them to fast forward on though, eh?!
