Extended Breastfeeding Check-in/Chat, 6/1-6/15

[vvvvvfee]

For the purposes of this check-in, we will define extended breastfeeding as breastfeeding beyond 1 year. Questions are repeated and suggestions are appreciated!

1. How old is your LO?
2. How many times per day does your LO nurse?
3. Share a nursing-related success story (something tough you overcame).
4. Is there an age you know you wouldn't BF past?

Pregnant & BFing and Tandem Nursing Moms: How are you doing? Any issues with supply, pain, aversion? Questions for other moms?

GTKY: Would you rather be able to detect any lie you hear or get away with any lie you tell?

1. How old is your LO?
17 months on Friday
2. How many times per day does your LO nurse?
3ish (only 1 today since I'm still at work past his bedtime)
3. Share a nursing-related success story
After DS1 was born I had horrible nausea and vomiting that started when my milk came in. I ended up back in the hospital and had a blood transfusion when he was a week old. Somehow i managed to keep him nursing and gaining weight.

4. Is there an age you know you wouldn't BF past?
I weaned ds1 at 2 so I'm hoping to do the same.
GTKY: Would you rather be able to detect any lie you hear or get away with any lie you tell? Get away with a lie. I don't know if I want to know about all the little lies.

1. 21 months this weekend!

2. 2-3 on weekdays, 1,000+ on weekends

3. I'm prone to blocked ducts and made it through two bouts of mastitis. That shit is awful.

4. I always said 3, but I think as 2 approaches, that might be better for all of us.

GTKY: Get away with a lie.

1. How old is your LO? Almost 20 months
2. How many times per day does your LO nurse? 2 times
3. Share a nursing-related success story (something tough you overcame). We deal with sassy behavior (kicking me, smacking, nipping and giggling) on the regular lately. I just end the nursing session 🤷
4. Is there an age you know you wouldn't BF past? Probably two. Idk we shall see though.

GTKY: Would you rather be able to detect any lie you hear or get away with any lie you tell? Definitely lie detector.
