Breastfeeding Photo's

Hi ladies!
First of all I want to say how lovely your pics are and honestly, I was a little uncomfortable at first but seeing your pics made me realize that breast feeding is a beautiful thing :) I had a friend who breast fed and with no warning while I was there pulled out her breast and began feeding... I was very uncomfortable and wasn't sure if I should go into another room or... I stayed as she was still talking to me, but wow. I know that might sound weird to you ladies, but I look at my breasts as a sexual part of my body and I am worried that I will be too uncomfortable with breast feeding. I didn't with my first child, and unfortunately didn't get the chance to feed my second child :( As he was gone 8 hours after birth. I want to try and breast feed this little one on the way! I know it is better for them and have been told it helps immensely with bonding with your newborn, but I am worried.

Have any of you ladies felt this way before you started breast feeding? If I find it too much can I pump out enough breast milk to feed them with a bottle? How often do they wake up for feedings? So many questions, and maybe I am posting in the wrong section, if I am feel free to move it to the proper one :) Thanks for listening and again, beautiful pictures ladies, and gorgeous babies!! :D
 
Came across this picture tonight, don't think I've shared it before, I love it, probably my favorite nursing picture of me and Hayden. He was about 3-4mo old, floating in the tub with me nursing :cloud9:

hey hun. i know how u feel, before i was pg with baby1 i thought bf was a bit gross and only saw my boobs as sexual (i got pg at 19) but when i found out i was pregnant i changed my mind. it was a little daunting at first but it really doesnt feel weird or anything like that. you just have to keep reminding yourself that the whole reason you have them is to feed your child. it is great you have chosen to bf even though you have reservations about it. it really is a great bonding experience. right at this moment i have both my babies on my lap, they have just finished feeding and are sound asleep, its lovely. there are a lot of women here who can help you with any problems you migt have. if you need to talk u can always pm me hun x
 
Wow mummyof3co i really was tempted to feed Tabs in the bath but felt strange doing it :dohh: not sure why though...but the is such a cute pic!!
 
Love that pic Mo3! I've never thought of having a bath with Alice, let alone feeding her in there. Maybe we will try that tonight.
 
Thanks ladies :) I almost never used a baby tub with him, he loved floating around in the tub, and if he could see his "food" he just had to eat lol
 
The first 3 are from a couple of weeks old. Then the 3rd one he is about a month and a half and the last he's a about 2 months. xxxx

Thank you so much for your reply! I am pretty sure I will have loads of questions once peanut is here :) I just spoke with a friend of mine who breast fed for a few weeks then decided to pump. She explained to me if I was uncomfortable with them on the breast to pump, either way they are getting the breast milk :) Makes me feel a little better too knowing they can still get their milk either way. Once again thanks and chances are... I will have a lot of questions soon :D
 
cant wait 4 u to join us! good luck with the rest of your pregnancy x :hugs: x
