The negatives of breastfeeding

**Mum&bubs** · 02-10-2006 16:31

Okay while we have all shared our positives to breastfeeding, I thought we could maybe share with each other what we dont like about it (if there is anything of course

)

For me:

I dont like how Summer thinks she has to squeeze the other nipple & dig her nail in it (ouch!) and if I take it away from her its war at our house.

I dont like the marathon feeds at night & mornings. I feel like my boobs are empty & I am just being used as a dummy. (It hurts!)

That's all I can think of for now so please share what your's are

Well my little darling

won't take a bottle........ so I really hate not being able to have a break longer than 3-4 hours

The only thing that I dont like is that DS has decided to start clamping my nipple in between his gummies sometimes and it kinda hurts, But even that is pretty cute...

So I guess no negatives here...
