Hi ladies,
I'd like to introduce myself. I'm a mom to 4 beautiful, healthy kids...
My youngest is 3 months old now and still breastfeeding. It's such a lovely moment together with your baby. Enjoying it so much....
Are there any other moms who are still breastfeeding? And who are still happily at home enjoying time with their little ones?

    My little girl is two weeks old now and I'm still breastfeeding. It still hurts like hell... I dread each feeding session, but I hope that at some point it won't hurt so much anymore and will become a nice bonding moment. I also feel like I don't have enough milk for her, so I'm doing my best to stimulate more production...

    Drink plenty of fluids to replenish everything, and what helped me was full-fat quark for the calories because they just fly out of you when breastfeeding.

    So relatable, I went through that too. The first weeks are tough. I also had very sensitive nipples and had to latch on all day long.
    But it really does get better!!!

    I have a 9-week-old son. I'm also breastfeeding.
    It was pretty intense at the beginning for me too. I had cracks. By the third week it got better. At first I even had to cry during feeding haha.

    Kruidvat sells breastfeeding tea, which I drink. A warm shower helps too, and definitely drinking plenty of fluids.

    Hello breastfeeding mamas!
    My little boy is now 15 months old and I'm still breastfeeding. What a lovely moment to just have some time with the two of us. Especially now that he's exploring more and not always by my side, I enjoy it even more. We plan to breastfeed until he's 2 years old, and what about you?
    Greetings!

    Hi!!

    I also have 4 kids. 2 teenagers, a toddler and a 19-month-old who still happily nurses.

    Sore nipples, dreading feeding times and crying. I know that from my first and third child. If it's okay, it'll pass; if not, call a lactation consultant. There's also something called "winter nipples."

    My little one prefers to hang on the boob all day when we're cozy at home. I find that pretty intense sometimes. At night she wakes at least 3 times. I'd really like to sleep through again.

    I'm enjoying it to the fullest though. She's our last baby, and the only one I've kept nursing for so long.

    I want to keep feeding until she has enough herself. I’m curious how long she’ll keep it up.
