Pumping is a huge nuisance and at the end of the day, your baby just needs to be fed. But I'm glad you're trying again with your second! I really do love it so muchKimmie Merkleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11588621659982640143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9171994363578468585.post-6616982446991723252016-10-16T11:47:27.604-07:002016-10-16T11:47:27.604-07:00This post speaks to me so much.

I stopped nursing my son (now almost 4!) when I had to go back to work and it just wasn't doable to combine the morning-evening nursing with a calm beginning/ending of the day. Plus, the kid loved the bottle as much as my breast and finally started looking me in the eye while feeding him (with a bottle). Cramps stopped and we were all okay to stop. <br />Now I know it is the last time and even if my nipples are feeling like they get torn into a million pieces, I'm determined to make it last longer and not let going back to work be the start of the end. I'll let my child decide this time and I am going to save this post to support me. There speaks so much joy and contentment out of it, you seem to be so in peace with how it went - just perfect!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9171994363578468585.post-29643611418084176232016-10-11T08:23:26.828-07:002016-10-11T08:23:26.828-07:00Thank you so much, Lindsay!Thank you so much, Lindsay!Kimmie Merkleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11588621659982640143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9171994363578468585.post-30733200983996328922016-10-11T07:13:22.553-07:002016-10-11T07:13:22.553-07:00Kimmie-I Love this.

But I frequently forget it that we are meant to have Joy! And joy through suffering. This is such a great example of Faith in the Savior!
