One the books I read on it -my favorite "The Nursing Mother's Companion" fyi - talks about how over 50% of the women who start breastfeeding end up giving it up in the first 6 weeks. When I read that (pre-birth) I thought, that's weird. Then it happened. Woa. Those first couple months (painfully engorged, mastitis, cracked, bruised, and bleeding nipples) I kept thinking, "it will get better. It will get better." And oh, how I wanted to be one of those 50%ers. Breastfeeding is DEFINITELY something you pay for up front. But then it's the honeymoon faze & it's so beautiful and sweet and wonderful- and SO good for them!! PS I was just reading that if you make your own baby food & have a pump, you can add breast milk to the veggies or fruit to make it super nutritious, which I hadn't thought of before. <br /><br />Anyhow, this is a long comment, but I did warn you it's my new favorite subject. ;) Glad you like it too. <br /><br />PS I laughed at your Violet kissing comment on my blog. :) I don't think I'd be to happy with Deborah kissing boys at church either. ;)Amanda Kristeenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03593263531249234091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1552230993380714231.post-62083705398951145132012-05-04T09:02:14.197-07:002012-05-04T09:02:14.197-07:00Angelina is so awesome.Angelina is so awesome.Courtney McAfertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12920854082238272436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1552230993380714231.post-9724427790682716112012-05-03T21:27:11.592-07:002012-05-03T21:27:11.592-07:00Ok, I would ten times have preferred a picture of ...Ok, I would ten times have preferred a picture of you over Angelina :)Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09858367301229254851noreply@blogger.com
