Yup, I've been breastfeeding since day one It's an amazing feeling, and though I've never bottle fed her, I'm certain it's easier than having to prepare formula etc. I'd definately reccommend giving breastfeeding a go I'm pretty much the only one of my friends that does too (though I don't know that many)

Helllooooo!
I plan to breastfeed && looking forward to it.. in a wierd way ha
A lot of my friend's who have babies are like ''Oh they don't force you too after you have had the baby.. they have to support what you think is best'' etc..
But it is what I want, before I spoke to any midwife...
Me and my brothers were breastfed, && breast is best haha
Planning on breast feeding him till he is 5 months then start weaning How long are you all planning on breastfeeding for?

Yea I spoke to my midwife about drinking when BF'in and she said its okay to have the odd glass or two of wine on the night
Just plan feeds around it so dont feed him straight after wait for it to go out of his system,
&& she said ''Don't go getting hammered though'' lol

I no ur allowed the occasional glass but tbh (i no this may be frowned upon) i drink mainly for te effect. I like the taste, but if i have one ill want another so for me its just better to steer clear all together.
Also tommy often cluster feeds at random times, specially wen he little growth spurts so sometimes feeds r a few hours apart, other times just half hour so its hard to predict x
