Yes, going for 6-12 months as recommended 🙂 I gotta admit, the first couple of months are the most challenging, but after that it does get easier!!! Good for you for making it past the year mark!

I just found your blog and was looking around. Are you still breastfeeding?! I am up to one year now, just a little over. It really is the best experience ever. I am just starting to wean my daughter. I’m very scared and sad at the same time. The bonding time is amazing.

Thanks for leaving a comment! I want to do it for at least 6 months so we’ll see how that goes! I recently just got a nursing cover too, they call it “Hooter Hiders” hehe!!

Thank you! I hope it does get easier. 10 months is amazing – great job!

I breastfed both mine for 10 months, and those first weeks are the worst. I got to the point where I would feed during the day and then pump at night after bedtime. That was I had some milk in the fridge and the baby always got what they needed. Hang in there! Oh! And I read a lot while I was breastfeeding/pumping. In fact, I kind of miss the reading time now that I have two toddlers. 🙂

But I did breastfeed for the first 5 months. I so wanted to do it til 1 year, but my body couldn’t keep up, and I was on the phone with a lactation consultant nearly every other day! But I sure am thankful for those 5 months of breastmilk he got. You are so right. Your life revolves around feeding and pumping. I had a really cool cover and I just got used to doing it in public (covered of course!) or in my car. It is one of the most precious bonding moments for Mommy and baby, even if it seems like its all you do!
