Eh, even without the pain nursing is still a pain. I hear all the time about these mothers who love nursing, who will be sad when it's over, who can't get enough of the bonding- I am not one of them. I'm doing it because it's what's best for the baby, otherwise, it's a pain in the ass. :)
Except for the night feedings. In those cases I'm really glad I can just pop her on and go back to a half doze until she's done.
AAAA-MEN. I'm a woman who loves structure, & I'm having difficulty adjusting to these erratic nursing sessions. Eat, digest, be done, child - see you in two hours.
But no. It's snack, sleep, wake up, cry, eat again in 45 minutes. This was just another part of nursing I wasn't prepared for. And my Type A personality is climbing the walls.
Yay, there are at least two other people in the world who hate it as much as I do but do it anyway!
Though I'm probably about to wean my twins for reasons unrelated to how much I loathe nursing. I've done this stupid shit for six months - I think we'll all be juuuust fine.
Thanks for saying that. He's definitely his father's son, so I rarely hear that. But I'm starting to see a little more of him in me as his face starts to take shape.

Also, you've been feeding two kids for six months, right? In my book that gives you credit for breastfeeding for a full year. Big fat kudos.
