According to iPhoto, it was nearly one year ago that this
picture was taken.
This is how Max
and I spent the majority of our time together… me nursing him.
And now today marks the last of our
nursing sessions.
I have mixed
feelings about being done.
Mostly
I am excited to now fully have my body back and I am proud of myself that I
nursed him past his first birthday (although not by much!).
But I am also sad that I am now
officially done nursing our babies.
I will not miss hauling my pump to work and putting up my “Do Not
Disturb” sign, but I will miss the time spent snuggling with him sound asleep
just before I lay him in his crib.
But knowing that Max is already growing out of his baby faze, I realize
that these snuggles will start to dwindle whether I am nursing or not.
Overall, I am grateful to have made it
as long as I did (with both kids!) and know that I couldn’t have without the
support of Brian, my family, and my girlfriends.
With a network like that, it made breastfeeding the easy
choice!
