I just remembered too, reading about your LaLeche meetings, how I did it all on my own and at one point the pain was so unbearable it was necessary to bite down on a folded washrag during latch-on to avoid screaming. Very worth it but it sure dudn't feel natural, and if there is a next time I sure hope to find the proper support instead is suffering through the first 3 weeks in agony!

Those were tricky, but we managed, and the interstate was usually empty tho I'm sure a truckdriver or two got an interesting eyeful Family gatherings Parks That's all I have time to think of. I nursed both babes for a year and it was a beautiful experience. I just had NO libido during that time so that's why I didn't go longer, but my kids are just so wonderfully healthy and I credit that years of Liquid Gold, co-sleeping, no vaxes and never a drop of antibiotics for that. Oh, and healthy diet during pregnancy.;) I don’t remember everywhere I breastfed but certain places do stand out in my memory:
