And while I have put her to bed for the last 2 1\2 yrs, I wouldn't trade it for anything! All those magical nursing moments are mine to keep forever! Even worth mastitus x's 2!! :)<br />KristiKristihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13142694706893565452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2566055197730422533.post-13881927902855145862011-03-24T08:35:00.591-05:002011-03-24T08:35:00.591-05:00Leah & Elizabeth & all: so true, so true.
...Leah & Elizabeth & all: so true, so true.<br /><br />Shrew, this baby's been a pacifier-rejecter too, and although she's slowed down in her demands somewhat, I like to think of it like this, on the days when I need to twist my sanity back into shape with the tool of humor: Hey! Apparently, breastfeeding is my hobby! How nice that my baby shares my interests, and that we can devote so much time to it together! :P<br /><br />Katy, there's nothing like a baby that positively hums with contentment :)<br /><br />Sarah, wow, you're right in the midst of it! Congratulations, and keep up the good work!Reb.

Leah, you are so right! <br />Not much compares to that pain - and not much compares to that smile (even the ornery one that comes months down the road when they are supposed to be nursing but have decided that whatever you are doing is far more interesting).<br />Thanks for posting, Reb.

(For having a sweet baby and nursing for six days).<br /><br />My favorite part is my babies always make their first non-cry/grunt/snuffle sound while nursing. That content cooing and humming.

Or tired. Or too hot or cold. Or bored or overstimulated. Or scared. Or hurting. Or affectionate. Or jealous. And so we nurse, and then it's maybe 20 minutes before he has another feeling that requires me to neglect my other duties.<br /><br /><br />*sighhhh* Only one of my four would take a false nipple, and it ain't this one.
