    Oh babe, way to go!!!!

    Dont worry about cutting down slowly, your mental health is also very important to getting a great breastfeeding relationship going! You'll be exclusivly b/f'ing in no time!!

    Well done, you deserve to feel great about yourself, its not always easy, but pushing through and getting help is such a great gift to your daughter, AND for you!!!

    It has been a really long time since I've been in here, but I just had to come in and share the good news...

    As of mid-December, Salma has been 100% breastfed! I was too scared to celebrate until she was weighed a couple of days ago, and she has continued to grow and gain weight as required - so we're there! We finally did it!

    Thanks again to all of those who gave us that much-needed support. I never realised how stressful and angst-inducing breastfeeding could be, and I know that Salma and I have both come out stronger for sticking with it.
