Ok here's my thing. I wasn't going to try breastfeeding only because it was too hard and difficult for me personally. I just wasn't always sure that Ryan was getting enough. Maybe first time mommy syndrome. I stopped after Ryan was about 4-6 weeks old. I did find that pumping was kind of easy. This time around I'm still debating if I should only because I want to make sure that I have enough rest and time for Ryan and the baby. What did you all do the second time? Was it worth it for you? I know breastfeeding is great for the baby, but what about you? I remember crying a lot. TIA.

Well, I really don't know just yet, but I do plan on BFing this baby and pumping some too one thing I did find was this thing where you can wrap the baby up around you and breastfeed hands free, I'll add a link http://www.wearyourbaby.com/St...bid/178/Default.aspx

It shows you exactly step by step who to wrap the baby around you, but when Vince gets here and I am nursing I will let you know how it goes!

Also the baby wearing website has alot of other great tips on wearing your newborn in other forms of wrapping so you have free hands to play with your other children!

In the beginning, when I would nurse Van I would sit and read Payton stories, play dolls or just chat. Now I wrap Van and away I go. I find it eaiser the second time around personally, Van is a much better nurser than Payton ever was. The only thing that I am having issues with now, is when I wrap Van because he is 19 pounds it hurts my back after a while. And I have been pumping alot but the little gobber refuses to take a bottle. Good luck with whatever you decide!

I BF both of mine. But I enjoyed it all 3 times I did BF. Baylee was only 14 months when Dylan came along, and it was fine. I didn't have any issues. If anything, it was easier! I didn't get engorged at all.

Well Hannah was my second baby. She did not take to breastfeeding. But I did breastfeeding with Matt untill he started to get his teeth. I am breastfeeding Kaitlyn too and she loves it. I also pump and use formula only at the feeding before she goes to bed.

BF the first time around was hard for the first 4-6 weeks. But with the 2nd one it was 100 times easier! I adjusted in only about 7-10 days. I was really surprised. It has been totally easy this time around.
