I had a pretty rubbish birth that ended in csection that left me feeling guilty like I hadn't birthed my boy... but thankfully breastfeeding came to us really well. He had latched within an hour of being born. He was an absolute boob monster. I think the hardest part is no one tells you about cluster feeding. I did not know newborns literally feed for hours....usually at night time. Nowadays he gets in out bed once he's up in the morning and has a cuddle and feed. And before bed me him and his Dad have another cuddle in bed and boob before he goes to his own room. I've breastfed throughout my whole pregnancy. I thought my boobs might dry out or he might not like the taste, but nothing seems to be putting him off. I love breastfeeding so much and am so proud of my body for growing and feeding my babies.
