Quoting TaryLeigh:“ How many of you young ladies are breastfeeding? Was it harder when your little one got older? like six months”

i'm breastfeeding her now and shes 3 months. its not hard now but it probably will later.

I'm breastfeeding and I plan to for a year.

it gets easier, IMO. and funner. now she looks up at me, and smiles, and it absolutly melts me when she rubs my chest.... i love it.

she latches right away, and there is immediate satisfaction. she ges down to business, eats, and then goes about her day.

I Bf and LO is 5 months and it's only gotten easier. Maybe when she gets teeth it might get difficult. She only BF for like 10-15 every 4 hrs maybe.

I was breastfeeding I planned on a year but went until he was 6 months. For me it did get harder. He never wanted to focus on eating it was eat a little play a little. I started weaning and the bottle was an amazing thing for us.

to me, it got soooo much easier
when i was pregnant, i said i was going to give BF a try, but i thought id probably do it like 6 weeks at the most.
haylee just turned 6 months like a week ago and im still breastfeeding.
planning on going to at least a year.
i love it and wouldnt have it any other way.
its the most wonderful bonding experience.
i love when she looks up at me while shes eating and touches my face.
i love love love it 

ETA: i also said (after i fell in love with Bfing, that id stop when she got teeth bc i thought itd hurt. well she has teeth now, and were still going.
its not always easy, but if you work at it and get a system going, its very rewarding.

That's who my daughter is... she just plays. My plan was to breastfeed her until a year and i feel guilty now since i am giving her a bottle because she does better with that...

Dont feel guilty. Most Moms dont make it that long. Any breast feeding is better than none at all you did a good job

they just get to an age where they are distracted easily lol. haylee does that sometimes too. shes getting better at it though.

IMO, you should keep trying.
but, if you do stop, dont feel guilty for giving your child a bottle.
at least youre feeding her  even just a little bit of breastfeeding did so much for her

do whatever works best for you hun.
like i said, dont feel guilty for giving bottles.
at least you tried, most moms dont even do that much 
you should be proud of yourself for making it as far as you did!
