Anyone Plans to Breast Feed!

babymello · Jan 1st, 2008, 07:31 AM

I am. I will give my baby a chance to receive the natural milk from me.

Also, I think it's very good. There will be a great connection between you and the baby even more.

The baby will not get constipated as much as they do when their on formulas. The baby will receive all the nutrients.
It saves time and money etc...

Do your research about it and talk to others who have breast fed.

What are your plans? Are you willing to at least try?

I'm planning on breast feeding. I was told that it may be harder though, cause I have HUGE breasts, but one of my resolutions is to keep at it and not give up on it!

PitBull-
My sister has huge breasts and nipples and she had no problems breast feeding. She said if you have a good lactation consultant you shouldn't have any problems.

I'm planning on breast feeding, until at least 6 months, hopefully more like a year.

I'm gonna try. However I know things don't always work as people plan so we'll see.

I have big ones too, and successfully breastfed my dd 11 years ago for about 6 months. I hope to go 12-18 for this baby.

This is a great breastfeeding link (mods, this link is video of actual breast feeding mother, so if you need to remove it feel free).

This video is a doctor offering breastfeeding advice to a young new mom. It's called 15 minues of breastfeeding help. This mama has pretty big breasts too, and she successfully feeds her baby with some assistance. By the time the baby is a month or so older it becomes much easier (from my experience).

Yes count me in . Breastfed my first 3 and loved the experience, had some ups and few downs but gets easier. I have big boobies anyway so when i am pregnant they get VERY big, never had any problems with them.
