Happy belated world breastfeeding week

Yes, I am late to the party on this one. Partially because life is busy but also, I have a hard time with this because I really don't want to put off my friends who don't breastfeed for whatever reasons. Really, I support #feedallthebabies. However, I'm a boob feeder and get all the reasons why we need to celebrate and support moms who wish to breastfeed or pump or a mix of all the options. I also will keep boycotting certain companies who ruin it for many women with false claims and preadatory marketing. 

Breastfeeding was a battle for me and tatertot at times. Bad latch, trouble with coordination, nursing strikes, sore:raw/bleeding nipples Luckily, we had an amazing support network and an angel of a lactation consultant. 

Now we are 17 months in (!!!!) and I am done. I want to stop. Tatertot on the other hand has her own agenda. I thought we were done a few time with nursing strikes at 11 months and last month but it turns out that was just teeth and as soon as they cut, she makes up for lost time.  We will see how long it goes, I go back to work in a week and when daycare time gets longer, she nurses less. 

Happy breastfeeding world!!
