Carson Meyer Instagram – 14 Months of Breastfeeding (and counting) 🥛 We’re told it’s hard or we’re told it’s a breeze but for most its an experience somewhere in-between. We’re told that everything is supposed to be easy for it to be right but I don’t believe that to be true. It you’re a new mama in those early days of painful latching and engorge breasts, or a seasoned pro feeling hungry/ thirsty and tired from constant night feeds (🙋🏼‍♀️), if your baby is teething and biting your nipple or your battling mastitis or pumping at your office desk or trying to night wean a toddler, I see you. You’re not alone. Hang in there. For all the mamas anticipating their future breastfeeding journey I want you to make space for all of it. The highs and the lows. Breastfeeding takes patience, it requires commitment and it’s so worth it. I know that one day Lou will no longer want to crawl into my lap for milky and it will be bittersweet for both of us. Until then, I am savoring every moment and feeling grateful for this gift my body gives her and that she gives me. These bright blue eyes staring up at me is the greatest feeling in the world.
