I didn't with Charlie since it didn't work out, but I loved it with Olive. We went until 26 months and I have no regrets!
-
I hated it at first but now I love it!
-
I didn't hate it, but I voted didn't like it since we had a lot of issues. I never got that bonding experience from it that everyone talks about, but maybe I would have had I stuck with it. Instead I EPed and actually didn't mind that at all!
-
I loved it. I was very lucky that it was so easy for us. I was sad when he weaned at 15 months. I knew it was coming soon, but he got sick and couldn't latch on, and I wasn't pumping at the point, so that was the end. I miss it a lot sometimes.
-
really hated it at first, but then loved it!
-
I loved it! We're still going strong at 16 months
-
I hated it with my DS - we had all kinds of issues and I had constant clogged ducts for the 1st 7 months - it was awful. Then after age 1 it got much better!
I loved nursing DD and was a little sad when she self weaned at 15 months
-
i hated the first cpl wks, trying to figure our way out... but loved it!
hated pumping, but loved nursing!
-
Haaaaated pumping love nursing!
-
It was very hard for us at the beginning (extremely painful for me) but worked well once we got into a good routine. I had some difficulties pumping but we are still nursing am and pm, at least for the moment, at almost 17 months old! I am not quire ready to be done but we'll see if my body or LO have different plans. To me, breastfeeding has been one of the most special parts of being a mommy so far.
-
So incredibly painful and exhausting in the beginning but after those first few months of oversupply issues passed I just absolutely loved it
-
Nursing is one of the best parts of my day. Love it. Pumping on the other hand...can't wait to burn that thing.
-
the first couple months were very hard and every single night I wanted to give up, but then it got SO much easier and I loved every single minute of it until she weaned at 10.5 months- which I was so upset about. I am hoping my next nurses for longer!
-
I'm in the minority...I hated it, every second of it. For both children, and my second was much easier and she did fine nursing. I didn't find it bonding either time. I just didn't like it.
-
I didn't like it in the beginning at all. I think I only started to like it last week when I went back to work. It feels more like a way to reconnect with my baby now than a chore.
-
Hated those first few weeks, but now I love it! We've completely weaned except for one session during the day and I cherish that time!
-
Physically, it's just fine, and I love providing for my baby. I voted like instead of love because of the anxiety-too much milk, too little milk, is he getting enough, augh!
-
I didn't hate it but I didn't love it.
-
I voted twice. At first, it was so painful, so while I wanted to do it and push through the pain, I did't like it and sometimes dreaded feeding him. After the first couple months, though, I loved it. It was such an easy way to feed and comfort him and I miss it a lot. I have dreams about it sometimes!
-
I hated every bit of it except for LO benefiting from it.
-
I didn't hate it, but didn't love it.
-
5 weeks in and I hated it at first and now we're starting to get I to the swing of it and I like it. I would be heartbroken if I had to stop!
-
Love it. Still going strong at 15.5 months!
-
12 days in and neutral. Doesn't hurt or anything but he nurses so much and for so long I feel like it's all I do. Hopefully soon I will spend less than 8 hours a day with him on my boob!
-
I both love and hate it. Im bittersweet about it with Juliet though I hated it with Drake and didnt love it all the time with Juliet too
-
I hated the pain in the beginning but love it now at nearly 12m. Even so much that I might push my goal of weaning at 12m back... I never thought I'd feel this way!
-
I loved it. We went to 16 months, per his lead.
-
Hated it at first and now I would say I really like it, at almost 18 months (CANNOT believe we've made it this long).
-
I dont like it. I dont like being tied down. I also dont like that whenever baby is fussy, mom is either responsible for causing and/or fixing the problem. However, i cry at the thought of stopping.
-
hated it at first because it was hard. loved it for most of the time but i would like my body back, please! going on 2 years and this one is a boobie addict. she doesn't know she's getting cut off soon!
-
I called it a wash. I went from hate to dislike to like with my first babe. With my second it has been from love to like. I just feel like it's something I need to do so I do it regardless of how I feel at the moment.
-
I love it and I really didn't think I would. Pleasantly surprised
-
I love it, though I'm excited to start the weaning process at 17 months (waaaay longer than I ever expected to breastfeed!).
-
most of the time I love it, although there is the off day when I'm feeling over touched and overwhelmed with LO's bad sleep when I just want to be done.
-
Hated it. We never got into a groove and spent a whole year in misery
-
I loved it...it's only been a couple of months since I stopped, and I'm already forgetting what it was like.
-
i enjoyed it with noelle - she was such a cuddly baby, and sometimes i enjoy it with jaren…. he's so much more rough - i got a lot of slapping, squirming, and hitting from him!
-
I loved it! DS weaned around 13 months (he's 18 months now) and I still miss it
-
I loved it but there were definitely some tough times, especially in the early days, around 6 weeks, and then the transition to returning to work!
-
I thought I was going to hate it but I love it. Our nursing sessions are getting shorter and shorter at almost 13 months and it makes me a little sad.
