I don't think there are too many people using the b/f forum, so I thought it would be nice to introduce ourselves, especially since I'm kind of new to it. thanks ↓

| Hello and Welcome!! I'm 24 years old, been married for 4 years and have an 8 month old daughter named Anika, AND 21 weeks pregnant with a boy!! YAY...anyways....i'm not breastfeeding anymore, only because my body stopped producing milk when I got pregnant. Had I known that was possible, hubby and I would have been a bit more careful, as I wanted to breastfeed for at least a year. We're excited to be having a second baby. We wanted to have 2 close together....just didn't know it would be THIS close. anyways, I plan to breastfeed this next one as long as possible!!! ttyl!! ↑ |

| Wow, that's amazing how close the three of us are in age, what are the chances?! Thanks for the intros. and the advice you've already given me, very helpful. Melissa I think it's great that you're still b/f your 15 month old and plan to continue. I keep hearing from so many people who stop before a year, even after only like 6 months, what's the rush I say. I'm going to aim for at least a year, then see where we go from there. I know I'm going to wean her slowly, when she seems ready. I also hate those people who think it's ok to breastfeed for 11 months and 30 days but all a sudden it's not okay at 12 months. Congratulations on your new pregnancy bmes! I hope to plan mine around 2yrs apart, but who knows, things can happen, obviously! lol ↑ |

| Hi my name is jill I am 27 and married. I have a son who is 9 and a step son who is 8. I am currently 30.5 weeks pregnant. We are expecting our little girl Kendra to come around march 24th. I did not breast feed my first child. As you can see I was pretty young when I had him and I just felt too akward. I have since learned all of the wonderful benefits of breastfeeding and hope to nurse this baby for at least the first year. I did have a breast reduction in 2000 so that may prevent me from being successful, but I have been doing lots of research so I can be as prepared as I can. It is nice meeting all of you. ↑ |
