I hated feeding my first son.. I didn't enjoy it at all.. I found it boring to be honest. and I hated being the only one who could settle him.. I gave up at 3 months..
Now I enjoy it.. I enjoy the break I get from feeding. Sometimes it is the only time I sit down..
I feel proud of the fact I can breastfeed with very minimal drama.. Of course there are times (especially middle of the night) when I wish she was bottle fed..
I remember when I succeeded feeding Son 3 that I would feed till 6 months. We got there and thought oh well keep going.. We hit 12 months and I thought wow. I was one of those women who thoguht it was gross to feed beyond 6 months We finally stopped when he was 21 months.. Now I roll my eyes at my own comments I made many years back
