Please don't let me become that woman...



A week before Tate was born I was at dinner with friends joking about people who breastfeed older kids. On the way home my friend Beth snapped this photo of a display in the window at Be By Baby. At the time I thought it was super creepy--the kid mannequin looks old enough to eat pizza, and is that mom mannequin wearing lingerie?!? It was really funny at the time. Now I'm afraid I might actually become that woman who breastfeeds forever, minus the creepy lingerie.

Oh my goodness that is so funny! I kind of know what you mean, though - now that I'm finally getting really good at it, I don't want to have to give it up in a couple of months!

Same here. My niece is almost a year old, and my sister said she only gets about an ounce when she pumps now. That made me so sad! I think it is especially hard knowing that this might be the only time I get to nurse a baby. I just want to make it last as long as possible. So different from those early days when I was losing my mind and wasn't even sure I liked it, huh!
