Congratulations!!! That was so awesome to read.. I am currently EE, but only with view to get him on the boob.. It's such hard work I possibly would have given up if I was in your position!
You should be really proud of yourself, what an inspiring story.. I love it!!!
thanks guys for your support and acknowledgement of my journey.
Charlotte - you can only do what you can do and I'm sure you did the best with what you had.
Fleur -yes coming to the end is emotional as well. I kind of stuffed away the feelings of grief of not being able to BF and finishing up has been a time for reflection and some of those old feelings have resurfaced - realising what we never had and now it's over kind of thing.
Blessedatlast - I know it's really hard in those early months and weeks...it does eventually get easier...i promise Take one day and one week at a time. My goals in the early days were just to get through this week and then I will decide if I will continue. For me my strong primal belief in breastmilk was what got me through one step at atime. If ever you need strategies for the unique problems EE poses have a look through the past EE posts.
