The Journey Continues…
With that said, I’m happy to announce that I finally wrote about my journey in a guest post over at Nursing Nurture: Breastfeeding Advice, Support and Blog. Krista asked me if I wanted to talk about my experience of nursing while pregnant in a guest post one day after I responded to a question she had tweeted about breastfeeding. Krista is a lactation specialist and the mom of 4. She is a true breastfeeding advocate and is supportive and knowledgeable not only from her schooling and from helping others, but her personal experience as well. I hope you will head over to read my post entitled “The Journey Continues.” Thank you to all of you who always support my blog and my journey. You are truly amazing and wonderful human beings that I am so fortunate to interact with on a daily basis!
XoXo,
Oh yay!! Heading over! Congrats!

Thanks for stopping over and showing support!
I admire you for being able to continue breastfeeding for a such a long time. I only breastfed for a month and thought that I could no longer do it because I had to work after 2 months. I felt now that I may have not tried so hard. Gonna read your guest post too!

Thanks so much, Rea, for the support. Yea, it can be hard from what I hear with the pumping and everything. But I've heard of moms who have done it for a long time.
Loved reading how it all began for you and thank you for sharing your story with us today!!

Thanks for reading, Janine! So glad I have you to support me.
Just came back from reading your post, and I loved it! I, too, had serious issues with latch when Britton was born last summer. She'd been in the NICU for a few days and had gotten bottles there (against my wishes) and that–plus an undiagnosed tongue tie–made our nursing experience horrible at first. I would cry and cry because of her horrible latch, and even after the tongue tie procedure, she still preferred the bottle. I am stubborn though, and pumped her milk and gave it to her in a bottle rather than giving her formula. I still kept trying to latch but she had no part of it…until the day she turned six months! We haven't looked back since then.
You are such an awesome mama for continuing to keep giving your little boy the amazing benefits of BM. Wonderful, wonderful post!!
My recent post We Might Be Friends If…
Have you had a chance to write about your story? I bet some moms have gone through what you have and perhaps would have given up but knowing another mom stuck with it and was able to eventually breastfeed right at the breast is so wonderful! So happy that you did that. I'm sure you and your baby will seriously benefit from that.
Visiting now!

Thanks so much for the support, Dana!
Congrats on the guest post! I think it's wonderful that you breastfeed! My daughter has breastfed all four of her children and I couldn't be prouder.

It is so wonderful and I really adore the experience. I'm excited to do it with all of my children, too. Thanks for your support on my guest post!
